Maid Marion

I don't like to be negative about our pubs but sometimes you are given no option.
Over the last few years the Maid Marion has seen turbulent times with changes in management and difficulty attracting punters.
Today I found out why.
After being in the pub for only a few minutes the session started to go downhill. A terrible selection of ale coupled with a poor layout that doesn't allow for everyone to view the 1 tv screen.
I was in the pub on a Saturday, with a Norwich game being played through a foreign stream, and I have to say it was one of the poorest showings of any pub.
The glasses were all filthy, most with lipstick marks and dirty water marks, the drinks were expensive, the bar is too small and the staff are less than friendly.
Of course, they are friendly with their 'mates', who it seems are a collection of locals, equally as unwelcoming.
What made the day worse was the change situation. Every time I ordered and was served I was short changed, and not just by a little, always by at least £3 which is just unacceptable and makes you think that this pub is trying to rip you off.
Unfortunately I was not the only one to have these experiences, I heard others talking about bring short changed, adding to my suspicion.

It is a real shame that this place has nothing to offer as it is in a perfect location, has ample parking and is decent in size, all of these things could be a real draw.
I'm told the food isn't bad but I'm afraid after my experience today, I will not be going back to try it out. The beehive, the Eagle or the Trafford Arms are all in walking distance and would all make for a much better time.
