wjmark Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I went there last night for the curry however could not finish meal as there was dog sitting under the food of table sticking its nose to see what was available. I could not finish and enjoy the meal and left thinking about the dog near the food. Serious health concerns in this place and wonder what its like in the kitchen ! The owner thinks it must be fine to have the dog walking around food ? I WONT BE BACK I gotta get in on this one! Really? Animals in a restaurant - the horror. But seriously, There are only three basic things that cause health issues for restaurants: 1) Hot food not stored hot enough (buffets may be suspect, but it does take quite a long time for cooked food to become hazardous). 2) Cold food not stored cold enough (street carts at the end of the day when their ice has melted...). 3) Food prep staff not washing their hands. That accounts for 99.9% of food hazards. Pets licking your leg, or looking at your food is actually not a major issue for health. Too bad it is for you.

millwall_fan Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Mary is part of the character of the place! Hope everyone at the Archers is having a good laugh at this thread, it's the only thing to do once the knockers and detractors get to work!

hiso1956 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 There is a place for animals however I don't think an eating are is the right place especially around food. Customer come to eat and enjoy a meal however your beliefs about food areas and animals being close by (within 1/2 meter). The dog is a very large dog to have roaming around nearby the food. The service at archers was great the few times i have been there and the food OK. Dogs are not allowed in places to eat for may reasons. So what you are saying its OK to sit at the table and have the dog lick you whilst eating at ARCHERS and its not a health issue ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyecatcher Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I heard the dog wasn't well the next day, a stomach problem after maybe licking a customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MassivePuffin Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 (edited) Dogs are not allowed in places to eat for may reasons. In which case you would only have to wait a couple of weeks before these reasons no longer apply. Then you could enjoy your curry.

By the looks of it your views are not shared by anyone else that frequents Archer bar. Staying away will just mean more food available at the buffet for everyone else.....sounds great!

Saan Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 They've got a big dog there! I'm on my way. I had a 70kg dog I used to take into a pub bistro. He did very nicely from the leftovers. I also used to take him on hospital visits and the medical staff were not worried about the patients catching anything from him except a lot of affection.

The one thing I have learned about dog lovers is there is no reasoning with them. They operate like every one loves dogs and should be permitted every where with no thought of any one else. I am not a dog lover but I have a low opinion of people who own large dogs and keep them inside. And yes they are a health issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a dog hater but I certainly don't love them but I absoultely agree dog lovers virtually force the fact at every single opertunity and get mega anti if anyone should even think about saying otherwise. When a dog does something wrong they make out that it's ok...and of course the dog can do no wrong.....Sometimes easy to forgive a dog and get p####d with the owner actually. On the flip side I see huge amounts of people in this country (expats included) who get a dog for what ever reason and really don't give a dam_n about it... No wonder they spend the whole night whinging and barking and keeping everyone up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, especially when someone just doesn't get it or misconstrues. In this case you would need to be British (I guess) and have heard of the group Madness, otherwise the response is out of context (like OP's), but also quite funny in it's own way, because it is.

naboo Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 The complaints people have about "The Business" are an "Embarrassment". Its a "Crying Shame" people want the dog "Not Home Today" when they visit. "Take it or leave it" I say. "Thats the way to do it". I've never seen the dog "Waltz into mischief", he seems to sit there, good as can be in "The Sun and The Rain". "Give me a Reason" to not love that dog Mary. If you're not a fan of dogs, "Please Don't Go" "One Step Beyond" the entrance. But "Don't Quote Me On That", its not my place to say. "A Day on the Town" wouldn't be right without seeing "That Face" of the darling dog Mary. You could say it would be "Madness" Maybe you complainers should just "Shut Up" and start "Stepping Into Line". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
