Never been there, now never going there.
Calling the people that hang out there cockroaches is a little degrading.
Disgusting. I’ve been there once. Never again.
A dive bar is suppose to have cockroaches among other things..
I have never been there, … and don’t eat much out anyway.
Lucky, we have not eaten at any restaurants that have been on ‘dirty dining list’.
Unless something has changed, the only food you can get at Farrington’s is the liquid variety.
I’m starting to wonder if the penalty for infestations should be much stronger. Customers and government inspectors should never, ever, be able to discover issues such as the ones in this report. Issues indicate that the owner is cutting corners too much. They are failing to ensure their employees are performing their parts of operating a business correctly. They are failing to maintain the continuous vigilance needed to spot issues and to fix them.
WC Resident,
.
City of Concord owned properties also have a rat and cockroach problem.
.
The cockroach and rat problems in the Claycord area really exploded about 8 years ago. They’re everywhere!
I counted 49 …. never went there …never will now
The fact that someone was shot there a few years ago was strike one. Pest infestation today, strike two. Not the place to be if you want to keep living.
Absolutely Disgusting. They should be shut down ASAP
