The Louden Tavern : Thursday

[Robert Marshall]

Need to go but I have listened to this suggestion about Cards and will another look further into it.
We had a quote last year and were not happy about certain aspects of it.
We did think of making them available on a matchday in the beer Garden

 

[EKBB]

Really don't get why not being able to pay with card is such a big deal. Just go to a cash machine before you go to the pub. Hardly a big deal.

 

[Neilston Unionist]

It is 2019 to be fair.

Aye, cash machines on every street

 

[ibroxbound]

Aye, but there's the trendy paleo diet types that don't eat bread, so charge them for the cheese while us fat bastards eat the rolls

His jokes are cheesy enough.

I don't think it's a big deal and it wouldn't stop me using the pub, would just prefer to have the option to pay by card.

 

[atcolin]

Well worth watching mate.

And you can follow along with Colin And Chris on H&H Podcast network too.

A fine idea, although it’s Colin & Jack

Is it not Colin and Justine?

Easy solution put a bank machine in, bar still takes cash and all the weirdos that don’t carry cash and grab twenty quid with a pint in their hand

Just something like this would help. I dont care about paying in cash but its annoying if I turn up and realise I have forgotten to lift money and now i need to wait in line for about 15/20 minutes to use that old as f*ck atm across the road that also charges me 2 quid for the pleasure. I hardly ever carry cash on me as my wallet doesnt have a space for coins and I hate coins filling up my pocket so I often do forget to lift cash for the louden as its the only place I really pay with cash these days except (some) nightclubs.

Of course it bloody is. I'll own my stupidity though and leave the original as is with a wee edit to admit it too.

Apologies to Jack.

Its a cracking show regardless.

Do you pay Rangers the £249 RTV dues in tenners, fivers and coins or is there a more convenient way to do it?

 

[Brian11Laudrup]

Those that don’t carry cash generally tend to be miserable bassas

 

[DoubleWhopper]

Aye, cash machines on every street

It can certainly make sense to have cash in a pub.

It's more laughable though that people are moaning about cards though, like wanting to pay by card is somehow unreasonable.

 

[Coke]

I noticed you do rolls and pies would it be out the question to have a roll on pie ( does not need to be buttered)

 

[Boab4]

Why would you put your roll on to a pie?

 

[Coke]

Why would you put your roll on to a pie?

Well pie on roll just sounds odd

 

[Boab4]

Well pie on roll just sounds odd

And roll on pie doesn't?

 

[Coke]

And roll on pie doesn't?

No that’s sounds delicious

 

[Superrangers]

A great pub and you give Rangers fans a great service Rab. I would struggle to live in Scotland again but I miss being able to go to the pubs and games a much as I would like.

 

[connman]

Louden is a massive upgrade from that hovel that was the stadium bar.

I don’t go in much these days as I take my daughter so I drink up PRW where under 18s get in.

Always served fast even when busy in louden though, great wee bar

Whereabouts mate out of interest?

 

[RnagersLoyalUK]

I don't see the problem with cash only. But there are companies who supply payment machines with no fixed contract etc.. Or how about putting a couple of cash machines in bar? Many companies supply machines with no charge to venue owner (yes, what they do is charge a quid or two per transaction and that's how they make their money. They maintain the machine plus fill it as often as possible.... If folk don't wanna bring cash they can get cash from in bar but they'll have to pay quid or two extra. Through personal business experience, a machine only takes up size of one person. If you placed 2 cash machines in bar, it just means you lose space for two people. Yeah won't have to pay for these machines. I've alot of experience in bars, extreme busy stadium bars, and most I've worked with have the same set up.....

 

[Trueblue82]

Whereabouts mate out of interest?

Quayside or NN10 for me but think there’s a couple others let in under 18s.

And the wee Rangers club but that’s usually full by time I get near.

I just get cashback from the bookies next door. Not ideal but quick enough

 

[SuperGers07]

Every thread on The Louden always ends the same. Chaos

 

[TwoBadMice]

Every thread ha ha

You must love the publicity i know i would

Ive been in The Louden on many occasions it's a superb pub, get served fast even when busy, free grub, the atmosphere is friendly and IMO much better than the Wee Rangers club (Not a dig just an observation as i use both) and most importantly for me they know when not to serve you if you've had too many (been told off before and happily left )

Oh and i only ever use cash when going out or to the football wouldn't leave the house without cash on a day out but always use card midweek day to day living so card machine not needed IMO

What?

 

[SouthsideRangers]

Sure to be heaving, which can only be a good thing in keeping a Rangers boozer so close by to Ibrox. I tend to go elsewhere though with just how busy the place can get. On the note of paying by card, there are a few good companies out there, try 'iZettle', easy to use and set up.

Bank Transfer saves me using the Pub Card

 

[pelem]

Why would you put your roll on to a pie?

Eat the surrounding crust on the pie and shove the rest in the roll.

Hauf of yeez have never lived.

Hauf of yeez have never lived.

So the pie is on the roll. The roll is not on the pie.
