A New Forest pub has banned children altogether after what they're describing as a "family with no respect".
The Compass Inn in Winsor hit the headlines last year when under 12s were no longer allowed except on a Sunday.
But that's now been scrapped after complaints about rowdy children.
In a statement on its Facebook page, The Compass Inn said: "As from today I am sorry to announce that we will not be taking any bookings on a Sunday for families with children under the age of 12.
"Today we have yet again experienced a family with no respect for other diners as their children were so badly behaved. Unfortunately because when we take bookings we have no idea if children are going to behave in an adult environment.
"Today we had complaints about the rowdy children, we had to move people to a quieter area, apologise for them and the staff had to put up with the back lash this family created. All bookings we have already taken with children on a Sunday we will honour but as from today we will not be taking any further booking for children on a Sunday.
"It’s a shame that I have had to make this decision but we are ultimately an adult only pub but some families disregard this fact that we expect their children to behave which unfortunately is not always the case."
