Single line queues at bars in pubs. Was in the New Continental in Preston (banks of the river Ribble, where Avenham Park is in the centre, great beers, decent food, top beer garden and cracking seperate live music venue) on Friday, and single line queue from end of bar going halfway across the pub ... as gaz76 says, bellends.

The Wharf is the same, its quicker that way apparantly ?
 
We took two grandkids, aged 6 and 4 to a pub last week. They played a game called Dobble and then got the crayons out for colouring whilst waiting for food. Nobody complained. Do I need to say more?

Quicker? Nope mate that's bollocks, I honestly can't remember any of that shite pre COVID so was it a by product of that? either way whatever it is the stupid twats don't realise they are killing the pubs with daft shit like this, what's the point in having a big long bar and only using a small bit of it? Most of the pubs in didsbury have this nonsense going on, and it's always the jolly hockysticks lot that start it, or a personal favourite the gangs of students or youngsters that have no idea what a round is

It's a covid thing. When pubs reopened you were supposed to queue in a line to keep infection down to a minimum. The trouble is there's a generation now who think that's the norm. Just ignore the queue and walk to the bar. It's what I do.

Nope, happened before Covid. One of the pubs near Piccadilly that used to be a bank. We went in there pre match and there was one long queue.
We left.
Spoons at the side of the town hall often does it. With Spoons it's the punters not the staff who decide to do the single queue so you never know when it's happening. It's one of the reasons I won't go in there either.

Dobble is a brilliant game for kids

Certainly wasn't in the Conti ... Staff kept having to ask people to 'Move down the bar' to serve them.
In usual pub bar queuing, good staff clock people as they arrive and serve accordingly.
Trouble is, nowadays bar staff are often inexperienced kids ... Found that in say, Germany, a bartender is a respected position of employment and tend to be older, more experienced and responsive.

Used to go to the Poachers after Friday work, 20 odd years ago, landlord Rob

JASR. You’re right it’s like finding a great walk or holiday destination. But your a Blue- Cotton Tree just down from Poachers which has recently changed hands but still good.

Spot on that last bit. Was in The Friendship in Fallowfield a couple of years ago, four students at the bar each ordered a pint of Holsten individually instead of going in a round, or if you're that skint just send the cost of a pint to your mate FFS*
