"Not pleased staff response"

4.0

Me and my wife have been in the Ambleside Inn quite a few times when we go up to the lakes it's a nice place very busy. But on this occasion we could not believe the response from the staff. We had sat down for something to drink avoiding the table behind and the opposite table as one was broke for 18.30pm and the other 17.30pm. Two young lads came in set at the table behind us, this was about 18.05pm and where non stop talking they did not buy a drink they just sat there opened boxes of food bought from Gregs and preceded to eat. Well the talking so loud and fast I looked round to see this I went over to the guy on the bar told him what was happening saying "are you allowed to eat other peoples food in here and not even buy a drink' he said 'no your not"then told him about the two lads who where just doing thatch said ill tell my colleague. A young girl came over was looking round,I pointed them out to her, then she said to them you're not supposed to eat in here and walked away. The lads sat there for another ten mins then left. Very disappointed in the way the staff handle a situation like that bad response unprofessional. Next time I think will come in with a pizza from over the road and a drink from Tesco. Ive provided the picture of them so you can see what was happening there was more food there just before that.
