I had lunch here with work folks. Had the bangers and mash and they had fish and chips. Was good with decent service. Only wish I had a beer to wash it down but maybe next time. Noticed several customers with a British accent so that was a good sign.

So I went to Cogburns last night to have a drink after working to check it out around 10PM. My bar/grill of choice has typically been Native New Yorker, but Cogburns is so close that I wanted to see if this could be a good alternative for watching the UFC fights with my buddies. When u went in the bartender was too preoccupied in her conversation with the one waitress there that I had to sit there for 15 minutes before I was acknowledged. Once acknowledged she apologized because she did not see me...duh you were too busy not paying attention! So I get a draft, finish it up and want to have one more before closing my tab. Once again I sat there with an empty mug for another 10 minutes while I wait for her to finish her obviously intense conversation with her coworker. I think the words customer service do not apply at this place.

I think Rollero's been paying attention. I made up my mind to never go here based on Yelp and Yahoo reviews. It sounded like the skeeviest of skeeveholes. It wasn't. Though far from perfect, it was clean. The bathrooms could use a remodel, but they were well-maintained. The place is older and the seating area is smallish, but if you managed to dodge the crazy herds of sugar-high spawns, it's livable. The food is crap, but then, it's a roller rink--if you're going for the food, you deserve what you get. It was also a decent temperature, so they either got AC, or managed to find a swamp cooler that actually works. The rules appear to have been revised as well. There were several same-sex couples holding hands and even showing more...ahem...aggressive affection (a caveat, though--these were teenagers, and I'm convinced several of these "couples" were actually advertising for heterosexual nookie). I don't think there was anyone there who wasn't wearing baggy pants, except me, and I was in booty shorts. I do wish they had actually enforced several rules, though--like don't be an effing douche and text while you skate, or don't be an effing douche and cut people off just because your testicles are finally descending and you can't control yourself. Mostly, don't be an effing douche. I also wish they had lockers, or better yet, a bag check system (those lockers are pieces of crap, anyway). I'm a grownup, and if someone steals my cell phone, no one's gonna buy me a new one when I'm done crying. Overall, it's good. Not fabulous, but if you have kids, probably a good place to go. On the other hand, if you're allergic to children, don't torture yourself. I love kids, and I was ready to feed some of these little bastards a hot dog full of rat poison by the end of the session. Oh, and there's still no roller derby. Fail. But you can't win 'em all, right?

First off we knew we were in for a wait seeing it was a Friday night but 2 hours is a little excess. The one waitress was throwing up in the bathroom Without washing her hands. To top it off our service at the table Was horrible. Took 25 minutes to get an ice tea Refill. Also overheard the waitstaff talking poorly about our table From the kitchen. Food Wasn't even that great --- former Buca di Beppo employee ( 10 Yrs ago)
