Goat In The Boat in Skerries

21/09/2025: It was all great until the end! This was the first time we've eaten here even though I grew up in Skerries, we were out with friends to celebrate our anniversary and we’re really looking forward to our meal as the Stoops has a great reputation for good seafood. We arrived and were shown to our table by some lovely staff, we ordered drinks, starters and mains which were all delicious and served by very helpful staff. We had finished eating and were trying to get the attention of a staff member so as to settle our bill when another staff member, who I presume was some sort of manager as she was dressed differently to the other staff, arrived to our table loudly advising us that we needed to leave as there was another group waiting for our table, there was no excuse me or please or anything other than a scowling face. This was the first time we had any contact with this person and no one had asked us to vacate the table up to this point. The lady stormed off in some sort of huff as we asked for the bill. It’s a real pity as we really did enjoy our meal and service up to this point. We all have bad days but there’s no need to be rude!!
