    General Statement: What is not understood here by most business operationers is the foreigner mentality of customer loyal and brand build up. Part of that loyalty by the foreigner crowd is that we are minorities here, and like to go to places we feel comfortable with, not changing the establishments we purchase more times than we change our underwear. If they can over charge you for one drink and put an extra 10 P in their pocket, it does not matter to them if they never see you again. Remember it is only what they can do to get that next meal here, not what they should do to insure a a healthy business that provides a long time livelihood here for them..

    Agree with JP. i think the point was made. I've never been myself so I can't comment. I'll go ahead an lock the thread. If someone has a different experience than those already mentioned feel to start another thread.

    OK Guys, I guess we all understand this is not a place to go so can we stop all the negatives on this one and move onto something Positive. :thumbsup:

    JP :bag: :wink:

    I wanted to bring some friends to Flip Flops but they were closed at midnight on a Saturday night. It's really hard for a bar to sell drinks and make money when they are closed, interesting business model though. I will try to go there again but I don't go out drinking so often so it might be awhile.

    Been there a few times. Like the bar, beer is fine. No problems with the staff. I don't think the food is very good. Parking can be a problem for a car/pickup.

    Been there around three times now and liked the draught beer, probably too much to care or even notice the bill and what I ate was always good!
