      "text": "Normally this is nice place to go with friends during summer, good enough beer, ok food and cool mood. Now that we are just coming back out the lockdown there was no respect for social distance whatsoever. Crowded as hell like always. No interest of the staff in enforcing the rules. They simply didn't care.  The only moment they care about something is when people where drinking in the open area with grass because inside there was too many people. That place is forbidden because apparently they are not licensed to have people drinking there. There's going to be an outbreak of covid here for sure if this continues as it is.",
