   shit. Staff are rude not sure what the woman was called but she was blonde in her 70 maybe 80's. I didn't have id which was fair enough, but my friend who was nipping in with me, was finishing off her drink, and the bartebder started screamung after my friend apoligised politely and kept her voice down. She started making a scene afterwards. Not only was she very rude, but tge place stunk aswell. Very unhygenic

   Absolutely appalling, only attend if you want to be discriminated against. Staff are vile and willing to single people out, in this day and age, what for. Gonna lose majority of your custom if you don’t make people feel safe and welcome.

   Heard a rumour that one of my favourite local eateries was in new hands these days. So I popped in to see if my friends Liv and Lennie were still there. But they've moved on now, so I thought I'd test out their replacements. And I'm very glad I did too. I'm thinking that the people of Rainford must be particularly patient, because I was greeted by a very happy young manager named Ben, and we had a proper good old chat. Not just a cursory "how do you do" exchange, but a real good old fashioned natter, before he told me about our new chef Lewis, and then introduced me to young Zoe, who looked after me beautifully for the rest of the afternoon. And I realised, I hadn't had a simple good old fashioned cheeseburger for over two years now, so Zoe brought me a delightfully filling burger with a side order of sweet potato fries. It was delicious. Every bit as good as I remembered it. Maybe the staff might change and the management might be different, but the smiles are just as warm and the food is just as gorgeous. I'm glad I tried the new Golden Lion out. It's still amazing. I'll be checking it out again next month too. FIVE STARS PLUS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐(+) #Excellent

   If you are a breastfeeding woman, do not visit, even for a coffee. I was told to cover up myself while breastfeeding my newborn as it was a man’s pub, it was inappropriate and no one wants to see that. I don’t know how I could cover myself anymore when I had a button down blouse on. I was told to cover myself with a blanket. I was told “this is a man’s pub”. I am absolutely so disgusted and upset, especially as breastfeeding publicly is protected by law. Another gentleman in the pub said I don’t mind at all, it’s natural and doesn’t bother me, but the rude barmaid insisted I cover up. I felt utterly humiliated and upset. I would not recommend here for women, or anyone who respects equality. My husband asked to have a quiet word with her and was immediately met with “it’s my pub and I’ll decide what happens and what people can do”. She then referenced saying “if I don’t want a dog in my pub I don’t have to”. I will assume the woman was the landlady, an older woman with blonde hair. So not only did she humiliate me, but she also insulted me. An absolute disgrace to Greene King pubs.
