Booze-free bar owner hits back at cruel trolls

THE owner of a booze-free bar in Manchester, has responded to trolls who described their beverages as 'w**ky hipster drinks.

Karl Considine said negative reactions to his establishment, 'Love From, were common, but insisted that 'alcohol-free doesn't equal to boring!

A comment  left on the bar's TikTok account read: "If your bar is still going in 12 months do a call-out post and I'll eat humble pie washed down with one of your w***y hipster drinks".

In response, Love From said: "We absolutely love what we are doing at Love From but it doesn't come without its challenges."

The bar, which is on Aytoun Street, near the Gay Village, added: "We regularly get comments like this, sometimes daily.

"Even though we exist for purpose, the internet still likes to be mean to us and sometimes it takes its toll."
