Rude, condescending, sarcastic and insulting staff that clearly don't want to serve customers. - Edit

We took a short jaunt to Polperro to walk the dogs and buy icecreams for our children (6 & 9).
We stopped a Nanna Ducks, I wish we hadn't.
We waited some.considerable time to be served icecream. We assumed that the staff were busy with customers. Eventually I looked and found the staff watching and laughing at videos on social media.
I turned around to my wife and said let's leave. They clearly don't want to serve.customers.
A lady followed us and said that she was here now and stated in her most sarcastic and condescending voice that she was entitled to a break (fair enough) and that she had been very busy. Whe had been in Polpero a few hours and had passed Nanny Ducks a few times, it was very quiet each time and the woman in question was talking to what was obviously her friend in the art shop across the road. It was a quiet day in Polperro.
The break is fair enough ( despite it clearly being an of season quiet day) but the sarcasm and condescending tone was far from okay and caused me to change my mind and say to this staff member to, "please forget it, we will go elsewhere." She replied with "Good", (followed by an insult). Then, "Enjoy your holiday." in her best sarcastic and condescending tone. She obviously has contempt for the tourists that the industry she is in runs on. But I'm local.
We all turned and left. My wife had to stop to look after some issue with the dogs, I turned back and I found the Nanny Ducks member of staff giving us the bird for the benefit and entertainment of her friend in the art shop across the narrow lane. Up to this point I had not been rude, I'm affraid I reciprocated the gesture to her, I was a little annoyed by this woman at this point.
I will not go to Nanny Ducks again, I would and will encourage no-one else to.

Pros: Nil

Cons: The tone and attitude of the staff, Being insulted by the staff

Amazing pasty! - Edit

Visited polperro whilst on holiday, walked past this shop and noticed vegan steak pasty and sausage roll! Both were delcious ! The vegan pasty was amazing, buttery pastry, a lovely meaty peppery filling.

On our way out of Polperro we stopped and had some vegan mint choc chip ice cream! They had multiple flavours, including caramel and raspberry ripple. Also the staff mentioned the chocolate tipped cone was accidentally vegan, very lovely staff. 100% recommend.
