I hadn't thought of this until last night. When my son was a toddler, there was still smoking allowed in bars, so I would never dream of waiting for my table at any restaurant bar with him.
Anyway, last night we went to Red Lobster with friends who had their two year old. Absolutely nobody was at the bar except the five of us. She was behaving. The only thing out of the ordinary was she had books at the bar.
It was clear the staff was not happy about her sitting at the bar. Three bartenders took care of the drink orders so fast it was as if they were being timed.
We were then seated right away, despite being told our wait would be 40 minutes. After we all got nestled in our booth, the server said, "So glad we were able to get that baby away from the bar." She didn't say it in a snotty way. Just matter-of-factly.
I really didn't see an issue since it wasn't crowded.
What do you guys think?
