Been to a Samuel smith pub in York. Pub was lovely. I sent a what’s app message on my phone and barmaid said no technology to be used in the pub. Fair enough. I get they want to go back to old fashioned values and that’s fine. However, when I came to pay they were happy enough to get there card reader out and take payment.
So you can’t use technology to send a message but it’s ok to keep the business going.
I feel that’s double standards.
