The owner of an award-winning restaurant has shared his dismay after a group of ten diners refused to pay £350 of their £450 bill.
Tom's Lyme Regis is a critically-acclaimed site specialising in seafood but, for the team at the restaurant, a positive weekend turned sour when a large group "deliberately" refused to pay for some of the most expensive items on the menu. Chef Patron Tom Robinson said: "If restaurant owners could write reviews on their customers then tonight would be my one star.
“Tonight a table crossed the line and went above and beyond to make my guests and team fell uncomfortable". Speaking to Dorset Live, Tom described how the table of ten had called for a large group booking about an hour before their arrival and, after accommodating their request, the group arrived and proceeded to order some of the most expensive items on the menu.
