Me hicieron pagar 11 libras. 35 y myates pagó £ 8 por un redbull de vodka doble. ¡Creo que esto es una farsa y el lugar debería cerrar ahora!

Vine aquí para un partido de Inglaterra. Fue a una mesa que no estaba reservada previamente, o al menos no dijo que estaba reservada en ella. Pedí comida y justo después de que un miembro del personal se acercó a nosotros y nos dijo que se había reservado en 10 minutos, puso un marcador de reserva y nos pidió que nos mudáramos, a pesar de que ya teníamos comida. Todavía esperando comida y tendrá que comer de pie. Servicio al cliente terrible. Calificaría 0 estrellas si pudiera

I came to the box a couple weeks ago (2.12.23) and was appalled at the way the bouncer treated me. I came with a group of friends during the Otley run and after queuing for about 15mins I gave the bouncer my ID and he pointed down the road and said “if you walk down this road, there is another entrance to the bar at the end which you need to go in from.” There was no other entrance, I went back and asked him why he made me walk alone down there he replied that it was because I was “too drunk” to come in. If he thought I was “too drunk” then why on earth would you make a 19yr old girl walk down the street by herself in the dark. Absolutely disgusted by the dangerous position he put me in, super unprofessional and puts a bad name to a nice bar.

I went to box for drinks on a busy saturday night went to use the toilet which we found the lock was broken so I held the door for her. This is common in a lot of the places on the otley run. An incredibly rude bouncer then approached me and shouted that I can’t use this toilet because it’s out of service. I merely asked if the toilet itself was broken or was it just the door as the girls bathroom had a lengthy queue. Instead he shouted at me and then pointed at each of the words. OUT OF SERVICE can’t you read english unnecessarily aggressive. My friend heard the commotion and came out I said to her let’s go use the other toilet because apparently we can’t read english - when I was halfway across to the toilets inside I put my hand up and shook my head at him. He then comes running in and chased me into the female toilets and screams at me to get out before he forces me out. I come out and ask why i’m getting kicked out? Because I was rude to him is why - pot kettle black. He then begins to physically shove me repeatedly I ask if I can tell my friend i’m being removed to which he shoves me harder. I am a small 5ft 3” female. I was not physically threatening to anyone in that establishment. I was removed purely because this mans ego was bruised - he is clearly in the job on a power trip. This is vile behavior and was quite traumatic and intimidating. STOP EMPLOYING BOUNCERS WHO DONT KNOW HOW TO DO THEIR JOB.

I come to Box a lot and usually have a nice time, except yesterday when I had the worst experience with the most horrible bouncer I’d ever met. He told my friend to put her vape in her bag when she wasn’t even vaping, I laughed at her and said why he asked me what did i say, that was giving him attitude apparently, even though I said nothing to him. He proceeded to get me by the neck and pretty much drag me to the stairs and push me out, while shouting and swearing at me and making me cry. I’ve never had such a nasty experience with a power hungry bouncer and won’t be coming back while you still have people like that working for you. When i kept asking him what the reason for him dragging me out by the neck was, I was apparently giving him attitude and what he did was borderline assault.

This is my first experience of this bar and will definitely be the last. I was walking home from work outside Box at around 11pm, when I found a girl (around 19/20yrs) on her own crying in the street. I asked if she was okay and she’d been asked to leave Box for being too intoxicated, but her friends were still inside and she couldn’t get hold of them. She let me walk her back over to security to see if there’s anyway I could help, within seconds of seeing her, the security shook their heads and refused to let us anywhere near the venue - I then had to explain how I was a stranger to her, completely sober myself having just left work and have taken on the responsibility of getting her somewhere safe. The security told me “her friends have left the venue, they’re not good friends”. I kept trying to explain how she was completely alone with no way of getting home/contacting people but it was a losing battle. Thankfully we could track her friends locations on her phone and I could confirm they were still at the venue. After 20 minutes standing outside working out what we can do, the doorman gave in and told me I could hold her hand walk her in to have a look for them; we found them within minutes. The doorman passed me in the venue as I was about to leave and said “if she’s sick are you going to be the one who to clean it up then?”. I understand the frustrations with dealing with anyone who’s pushed their drinking limits, it isn’t an easy role by any means. But to force a young girl to leave a venue alone, in that state, is not a respectable level of care from any security and then to sarcastically joke about her vomiting being the worst thing that could happen was by no means professional. He was incredibly careless, kept rolling his eyes about how much longer he had left on his shift and quite clearly did not care about keeping any of the customers safe on/off the premises. I agree that people should be asked to leave venues for not being in fit states, but please ensure they don’t leave alone in an even more vulnerable position - not every stranger in the street may have been willing to help like I was.

Most uncomfortable experience I’ve ever had in a bar. The young blonde member of staff seems to think she’s better than everyone else in there. Constantly walking past and giving dirty looks to myself and my friends, even as we smile at her, looking us all up and down. Happened multiple times whilst we were there. The most disrespectful person I’ve ever met. Ended up leaving early because of how she made us all feel.

I stopped off here during the Otley Run. We had to queue for a little bit but they had a very efficient system where the barman told the bouncers how many to send up, controlling the amount at the bar, which meant we then didn't have to wait very long for our drinks. The barman was very efficient at choosing who to take orders from in terms of keeping it fair based on who had been their longest, which is a great skill. We then sat outside in the sunshine with our drinks. I will also say there weren't queues for the toilet. The queue to get in is worth it as it does mean it isn't as crowded inside which made it stand out to me on the bar crawl as being one of the more relaxed places.

Had the best time here, Olympia who took our orders was lovely, fantastic service she made the best cocktails. The food was delish, we had lamb/chicken kebabs, loaded steak frites, burrows burger (which donates to MND) & share chicken wings- all absolutely gorgeous. Played pool, laughed and loved the atmosphere. Definitely be returning.

3 of us ordered food separately, 2 meals came and the third never came. We waited half an hour before asking a waitress where the food was. She was very competent in finding out what had gone wrong and couldn’t stop apologising for an issue that wasn’t her fault. Eventually the situation was handled and it was the effort and politeness that turned our experience into a positive one. I found out the server was named Bella and she is a credit to your team. Even after the mix up we would be happy to come again if the business promotes servers with such good attitudes

Encantadora bienvenida a la primera dama tomó orden a la 1 pm. Preguntó dónde la comida está esperando 40 minutos. Para 2 papas al horno. La señorita muy grosera dijo: "para cuando estuve aquí .... Llegaron las papas a las 2: 00 anemia de ninguna manera había sido horneada al horno. Patata cruda. Trataron de cocinar la mía otra vez, aún sin cocer, simplemente derritieron el queso. Me negué para comer. No nos cobraron. Me regalaron un sándwich gratuito que me quité. Grano de salmón en salmón. No se disculparon por llamar por teléfono. No quería ver el hueso. Averigua por qué lo tomaría más. yo.

We check alot of cafes/restaurants out and this is one of the finest breakfasts we have ever had. The Sausages are from Swaledale and are so tasty....we received two eggs and they were cooked to perfection and so tasty, free range at it's best. There was no after taste of fat. The initial welcome was very warm and the coffee was amazing. This was a breakfast that kept offering more, the products of the breakfast were the finest quality and the staff were very passionate and friendly! Well done!

Estoy de acuerdo con los que dicen que el ambiente es extraño. El interior es algo extraño: Las paredes marroquíes y las sillas scandi no van juntas, no es un espacio acogedor, definitivamente no está bien pensado. El chai latte que pedí estaba en el lado frío, así que me costó entrar en calor, sin mencionar que tardó años en llegar. Mientras esperaba a que llegara mi amigo, nadie vino a preguntarme si quería pedir algo. El personal estaba claramente ocupado, lo que puedo entender ya que el lugar estaba lleno, pero cuando trabajas en la hospitalidad, debes saber que una sonrisa va muy lejos. En general, una mala experiencia y no volverá.
