Trying to eat at The Calder

Under the illussion that The Calder was a pub we went in there today and the conversation flowed like this:

Husband A pint of Boddingtons please

Barperson Boddingtons is off

Husbsand A pint of Teltleys then please

Barperson Were out of Tetleys

Husband Have yo any Guiness?

Barperson makes no repsponse just goes off and pours a pint of Guiness which she bangs down in front of him.

Later we decide to try some food. I choose a Tuna Steak and Salad.
He goes to bar to order.

Husband A tuna steak salad

Bar person We dont do tuna steak salad (they do it is on the menu) We do shredded tuna salad.

Husband knows this means the tuan is coming from a tin and is wary that it might contain hidden glutten or dairy products both of which I am allergic to, so asks if either of these are in the shredded tuna.

Barperson replies Dunknow.

Husband Could you go and look please as it is important.

Barperson turns in a strop and comes back with a can which she gives to h/b so he can look. The writing is too small for him to see so he does not order.

Ever had the feeling you should have gone somewhere else to eat?
Is this place always like this it is the first time I have been there?
