How this score works

The score estimates how strongly this place's review record matches known manipulation patterns, from 0 (no signs) to 100. Verdicts: Clean below 40, Suspicious from 40, Likely Manipulated from 70. It rises with the share of reviews flagged and how suspicious each one is.

Burst
— an abnormal spike of five-star reviews in a single day compared to the place's usual pace.
Low activity account
— the reviewer has almost no other reviews, photos, or Local Guide history; throwaway accounts look like this.
Duplicate text
— the wording is nearly identical to another review of the same place.

Verdicts are statistical estimates based on public review patterns, not accusations.

The maître d’ and manager here were warm, attentive, and genuinely accommodating - the polar opposite of the aloof, self-important attitude you get at The Publican.

Food and service was exceptional, we never had a reservation but sat at the bar. The guy behind the bar was welcoming, attentive and made us feel fantastic. Would visit again tomorrow
