A Sligo restaurant had the best response after a TripAdvisor review questioned their honesty
EALA BHÁN IS a restaurant that serves “classic food with a contemporary twist” in the heart of Sligo town, on the banks of the Garavogue River.
They also serve up *fire emoji* comebacks on TripAdvisor – but they’re not on the menu.
It all started last Thursday, when a review dropped from an Australian couple who had eaten in the restaurant when visiting Sligo. The husband had forgotten to bring his jacket with him and the arrangements to have it posted to him hadn’t worked out before they flew home.
The three star review was titled “HONESTY NOT DELIVERED”:
We then got the details on the windbreaker debacle:
Grand.
Perhaps a bit dramatic to bring in the man’s integrity but such is the rough and tumble of hard-to-please TripAdvisor reviewers.
Manager Anthony Gray – named in the review – wasn’t going to let it slide though.
His response began:
So far, so polite.
But then things started to get delightfully shady:
He went on to point out the irony of criticising someone else’s forgetfulness in the circumstances:
He’s definitely taken this response up a few notches since the first few lines.
And it only gets better from there:
Reading it, you have to feel that the reviewer calling into question his honesty and integrity was the only source of such a cutting response:
Keep her lit, indeed.
You can read the full reply on TripAdvisor, so strap yourself in to feel the burn.
We await updates on the windbreaker’s safe arrival down under. Who knows what’s going to happen if it gets lost in the post.
