An Edinburgh bar has hit out a savage review making a number of allegations against their premises.
Harbour Inn in Newhaven near Leith received the one-star rating from a profile named ‘local scot.’
The customer claimed that it was ‘the worst bar in the Newhaven area’ and that the staff are rude.
They even went on to say that they hoped the bar went 'out of business' and claimed that they found ‘rat droppings’ in the toilets.
But Harbour Inn took to social media to defend themselves against the review which they insist is ‘fake.’
The frustrated business accused ‘local scot’ of trying to ‘slur and tarnish’ the family-run pub.
Posting a screenshot of the review online, they said: “Oh dear....
"Well what can we say, it's very sad times when a person really feels it necessary to spread false reviews on a ratings platform as some sort of vindication for their inappropriate behaviour in the pub.
"The fact you wish a family run pub of almost a decade and a pillar of the local community to be out of business is terribly sad in this economy when things are so tough.
"To slur and tarnish with false accounts of your visit is just absurd, we operate to high standards and provide our customers with a safe and clean environment, we also adhere to Covid safety measures which are requirements from both local and national authorities.
"We pride ourselves on our commitment to our local area and community, and support other local businesses, community groups and charities.
"Also we are not an "embarrassment to the area" we are exceptionally proud of our pub and our pub community.”
