What is 'following'?

One of east London's few purpose-built venues, Cargo launched with very much a clubbing profile, but has since radically expanded its live remit, which now ranges from art punk through dubstep to psychedelic prog and wonk-pop. Its programme also includes plenty of underground artists building themselves a profile, provides intimate showcases to big-name artists ahead of their record releases and hosts label parties. The outdoor courtyard acts as a third room, away from the often over-stuffed performance space and lounge-bar area, and gigs are usually staged seven days a week.

Cargo looks amazing from the outside and when you enter the brick walls and archers are very very charming but soon after you realise its a very cold place.
The staff are very uninterested and hardly smile , they looked tired and stressed and I visited during the day and a very quite time
I did not feel welcomed by any of the numerous staff that were scattered around.
I was asking the manager Renata about their food menu and was surprised to see that she spoke very bad English and had a very rude approach.
I didn't even bother ordering anything as the atmosphere was so unfriendly .
they seem to have very little respect for people there and by the way the staff behaved I'm sure it the same about the way they are treated also.
I certainly wouldn't waste my money there .
