bongsau Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I once got kicked out of a peeler bar in Calgary in 2007 because my arm tattoos were showing. That was pretty funny.

Beans Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Wow, I had a completely different picture of him in my head. He looks like a sweet guy IMHO. And Hell, with two cats, of course he's swell.

Mick Weder Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 In Qld, Australia now, it's common to be refused from venues for having hand, neck and face tattoos. Especially on the Gold Coast. The way I see it is that these venues are mainstream. Fuck mainstream. Never wanted to mix with them fuckers anyway. Give me a dingy blues club any day of the week.

Margarita Yaschenko Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Very unprofessional on the part of the restaurant so to deny service. Not very pleasant reputation it does.

Lance Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Wow! If I were him I'd write a scathing Yelp review! Okay in seriousness though, it really sucks that stuff like this happens but I'm also not surprised it actually does happen.

Dustingormley Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Facial tattoos are going to impact your life a lot more than just eating at a restaurant. I think the rule should be that you have to be covered from chest down and wear a fake tattoo on your face for a month before getting one. They're not accepted by most sheeple, and that's kinda why they're cool.

pidjones Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 And yet, the Oak Ridge Ihop hires waitresses with visible ink. Things like that are usually local management option.

MadeIndelible Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Disclaimer: I work in restaurants in SF, a liberal community, and I have to say, most places that I can recognize right off the bat as being places that I wouldn't want to work for due to their prejudices are not places that I would want to work at, and much less so give my money to.

The Tig Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Since the thread is revived, I'll jump in. I live about 6 miles South of the Fuqua (FuckWay is my nick for it) area, and yes, it has become a little rough there. One of my fire academy classmates is a Sr. Capt at the fire station there and has some pretty wild stories. I wouldn't go to Bombshells or any similar Twin Peaks/Hooters restaurant in the first place. Their food sucks at best. While my personal beliefs about facial tattoos can be a little negative (depending on the content and intention), this guy certainly didn't deserve such disrespect.

The Tig Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Have you been to Nobi Public House, yet? I had to look it up just now and saw the location. Now I know why that parking lot was so packed this weekend when we drove by. The ratings are really high so I'll have to see how the food is. Thanks for the heads up!

That and Boondoggles are our 2 favorite places when we're south of the 610 and want decent food and a good beer selection.

mactattoo Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 That restaurant should be "boycotted" by anyone with a tattoo or sympathetic to the idea that no one should be discriminated against. Then that restaurant would (ideally) suffer in sales and revenue and "realize" the stupidity (if not immorality) associated with discrimination.
