10. Just don’t do it – the short, aggressive little man
An English customer headed to TripAdvisor to leave a terrible review for Bittles Bar. Why? According to the disappointed lady, the “short, aggressive little man” had a problem with her English accent, leaving her feeling discriminated against.
The fact that she feels the need to point out several times throughout her review that he is a “little man” is hilarious to us.
9. A zero-star review – the motto is down to a tee
This hilarious customer seems to think that the motto of Bittles is “either get a Guinness or get out”, and judging by other reviews of the exact nature, he has probably hit the nail on the head.
In addition, the added disappointment was not being allowed to leave a zero-star rating, which he believes Bittles deserves. This is certainly one of the best negative Bittles Bar reviews we could find.
8. Is it a wind up? – if you don’t laugh, you’ll cry
One of our favourite negative Bittles Bar reviews on Google is from a woman astounded by the barman’s attitude. She was so astounded that she genuinely thought it was a wind-up.
When she asked if the bar was open, the man behind the bar told her that it was. However, he said, “we’re not serving you”, adding that that was a stupid question for her to ask.
7. Stinking toilet – a smelly place with rude staff
TripAdvisor has its fair share of negative reviews for Bittles Bar with many pointing out the utter rudeness of the staff. However, this customer changed it up to point out that the stinking toilet is just as bad as the rude staff.
In addition, the unhappy gentleman revealed that he had had a better pint of Guinness out of a can. Ouch!
6. Not great – everything you need to know about Bittles Bar
This short but not-so-sweet review about Bittles Bar is one that will certainly give you a laugh. The customer pointed out the smell of urine and the rude and useless staff, but claimed that the atmosphere is ok if you’re “a smick”.
While this unhappy customer kept it short, he certainly got his point across in a shockingly funny way.
5. Just don’t go – solid advice from an unhappy customer
On TripAdvisor, a previous customer warned others of her awful experience, which she claims really lets the city down.
During her visit, she was “accused of being from Larne” by an unfriendly local (wearing tartan), who happened to be very offended by her mixed Northern Irish/Scottish accent. Luckily, her partner was there to put him in his place.
4. Customer service training – a barman or a badman
One of the most hilarious negative Bittles Bar reviews comes from a lady who reviewed the bar on Google.
First up, she was astounded by the barman’s rudeness, screaming at her that the place was “full, full, full”. Then, according to her, with an attitude like that, he desperately needed some “customer service training”.
3. Smells like urine – one of the best negative Bittles Bar reviews
This unhappy customer expressed her disappointment that the Guinness was not up to standard and smelled like urine.
She also expressed her bewilderment about how the bar is still up and running, calling it “a miracle”.
2. A one-star review – nice hot chocolate, but smells like piss
One of the funniest negative Bittles Bar reviews comes from Google and starts out positive but quickly takes a turn.
The customer claims the pints are good enough, but the hot chocolates are wicked. It’s a pity the bar always smells like urine and excrement. Lovely!
1. If Karen’s Diner was a bar – is it all just a joke?
One of the best and most hilarious negative Bittles Bar reviews comes from TripAdvisor. One unhappy customer compares the bar to the infamous Karen’s Diner, which is known for purposely poor customer service.
Unlike Karen’s Diner, where the staff pretend to be cruel and unfriendly to customers, it seems the staff in Bittles are the real deal.
