Partygoers around the UK are poking fun at one of the UK's top bar chains for the wild antics of its staff when they're serving customers. Be at One, a cocktail bar chain open late into the evening, is popular among revellers looking to move after-work pub drinks on to a proper night out, with its 2-4-1 happy hour deals and blaring music.

However, customers have recently taken to TikTok to complain about something they enjoy a little less about their experience - the seemingly wild bar staff. Mocking the staff in clips shared across the platform, people have joked about staff members' 'insane' theatrics as bartenders pull wild stunts and dance on the counter while thirsty customers are left wanting.

The customers have accused staff of being 'too busy' acting out antics like 'swinging from lampshades' and 'grinding on the bar' to make cocktails - as well as pouring buckets of water over each other mid-shift. Hundreds of viewers were left in hysterics after one TikTok creator, ShellRowe, posted a comedy skit of what it's like to try and find service as a customer in a branch of Be At One, last week.
