A Bristol steakhouse which saw animal rights campaigners stage a sit-in at tables reserved for customers last night (May 20) has reacted to the protests. Nine supporters of Animal Rising targeted The Cow & Sow in Queen Square on Saturday evening.
They were pictured sitting at tables which had been reserved for diners of the family-run steakhouse, while holding placards which were said to showcase conditions inside UK farms. Other images were said to focus on an idea of a world free from animal farming.
But staff at The Cow & Sow said that the protesters' presence at the establishment seemed to make more customers order larger meat dishes. Tyler, the manager on shift during the sit-in, told Bristol Live: "If anything it made us busier."
