no barliman maybe not

but I clearly saw the inside of a dozen games workshop… shops… and they absolutly match my description there is not a scrap of dust or any blackened walls or scrap of papers lying everywhere… neon lights, white walls filled with organised boxes or blisters , perfectly clean glasscases, and catalogues well handled in some corners of the rooms, and in the middle a playtable with demonstration building, armies etc and a clean shaved, smart clothed vendor who’s there only to assist you , explain the rules (for War 40k, War Battle, lotr) to you and suggest what you should buy…
These shops, I have seen in several big cities in France, both in north and in south of France

well the design deparment is not what the customers see though
