Are You Open?


 
I think this must be some kind of bar or pub?
Or some guys who are into flat-sharing and partying :-)
 

This is for Sami´s COLOURFULWORLD Monday Murals.
 
And Henry 🦁 


It wasn´t the "SHOTZ", Ingo bought a  lensball, as he saw it at Grace´s and BOOOOY. 
Even in Spring in Germany I have to be QUICK, Ingo can´t hold it for long!

It´s getting HOT in no time, Henry!
 
And Corinna?  Did she win? We went to Guido´s for a beer and Pizza.
We were not able to order the Pizza and never saw the beer.

An ordinary beer, no "SHOTZ"! wasn´t at our table after 20 minutes. It was a hot day, and we were like really thirsty.

And you know what?!
We left.
And I felt guilty.
We took the paper where Ingo put our names, address, phone-number and time of entry - yes, we have to do this! As we went without phones and had no App for that - and luckily! - no proove we were even there... we took the piece of paper simply with us.
 
Sad. The waitress knows us, we´re at the "du"-level, which means "I know you, we like each other".

Corinna sat in the corner, maybe, the place was full to the brim.
Which is good.
Very good.

But let people who are regular guests wait that long for an ordinary, plain, little beer?

Can we go there again? I feel bad. Guilty. Should I?

I've walked out of several places over the years, and never feel bad about it. I mean, what is the point in sitting in a place and not receiving what you want? No need to feel guilty :) xx

Sami said...

That wasn't very good service, even if you were not regulars! Right now all these businesses need customers and they need to treat them well.
Good on the lens ball, hope to see some great experiments :)
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Iris.

Margaret... I feel better now! Thank you xx

Sami, it was a tough decision. And it was mine, too.
Lensball-pics are to come and thank you for hosting, please keep it up!

At first I thought the blue steam coming out of the cup was hair. OK, guess I didn't sleep great last night. Too hot, dog hogging the bed. Now I see it is a cup. Happy Monday Iris.

It´s maybe Marge Simpson? A happy day to you xx

Tom said...

...I hope that Henry doesn’t get dizzy being up side down.

Mae Travels said...

Is that a pun? Shatz in German and Shotz in English where it's really Shots?

I hate when we order and don't get service. We would also walk out. Worst is when they make you pay up front.

best... mae at maefood.blogspot.com

Tom, Henry choked a bit and was OK ;-)

Mae, I don´t drink other thank beer (and certainly water, coke, juice etc), but no cocktails. Reckon it´s a mural-ad?

Good advice. Never pay before you get - I still feel bad...

RedPat said...

I would probably have left the pub too! It is too hot to wait so long for just a beer.

CJ Kennedy said...

That's too bad about having to wait so long and not get your food or beer. I'd walk out, too. Some restaurants here have been having that problem, too. Too many people trying to get back to normal and not enough staff at the restaurants to handle things. Maybe they were just having an off day. I'd go back for one more try.

Iris Flavia said...

RedPat, yes, it was but a beer!

____

CJ, yes, we will try again and yes.... maybe not enough staff. Tough times for all of us!!!

You can't be expected to wait forever. Who knows how much longer it would've been or even maybe your order had been lost in the confusion. They could limit service to numbers they could actually serve. No, you shouldn't feel guilty at all. I'd give them another chance since you're regulars, but I'd wait a while.

I hope it's better next time.

That is a cute globe. I like it. Sorry you did not get quick service.

Bill said...

I would have left too and probably wouldn't go back. That's not good service.

DVArtist said...

Oh I would have left as well.

Lovely up side photo.

I do like the lens-ball photograph.

All the best Jan

I remember partaking in those in my younger days, very tasty, too old for them now.

Oh you can definitely go again Iris, by the time you go back they will have forgotten all about it, if they were that busy they might not even have noticed 😉 I think you will have so much fun with the lensball, can you imagine how hot it gets here in summer, a couple of times we almost started a fire 😀

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

You definitely shouldn't feel guilty about leaving. I know I would have. Nice mural, too.

The shotz door is on fire! :)

I hope you had some beer at home, at least. :) Corinna's time is almost up, I hope. 🤞
