He should have announced his new menu where EVERYTHING had a least a trace of meat. Even desserts and drinks.

Probably not the best steak and kidney pie on the block. More likely this self-promoter was doing anything he could think of to get some buzz

Hell even McDonald’s French fries apparently had traces of meat back when they were awesome.

Now to this,

I am not a vegan, could never be a vegan, but how can you ban a vegan? They can come in, order a dish and eat everything that is not meat... And boom.. A vegan just snuck in.

In my experience, they tell everyone at each and every opportunity that they are a vegan.

Hey how are you doing today?
Well I am a vegan so I am great.

We are ready to seat you?
Ok no where near any meat I am vegan.

Do you have any questions?
Well I am a vegan.

He fricked up and got a 1 star review. Then other vegans who hadn't even eaten there started spamming his pages with 1 star reviews, so he banned them from eating there.


We have no idea who left the other 1 star reviews b/c they don't have any kind of comments. For all we know he was getting them for being an a-hole to other customers. Hell, he could have done the reviews himself and then put out his presser about banning vegans b/c he figured lazy as frick click bait farms would pick the story up and give him a frick ton of free advertising.

I just don't understand why some of y'all are taking this dudes claims at face value when he already admits he fricked over the initial customer.

I set up a monthly dinner for about 25 people, 3 of them are vegans, I spend 20% of the time taking care of the menu for 22 people, 80% dealing with the damn vegans. And then they bitch because they don't think they should have to pay as much as the others.

Vegan = pain in the arse diva.

He's making a "ban" because he's tired of having to cater to vegans' demands. The only way to "sneak" in as a vegan is to keep your mouth shut and eat what's given to you. Which is what he wants.

Glad it has worked out for this restaurant owner, but I can’t for the life of me see why any business would take a political stance on anything…you instantly run the risk of alienating half of your customers.

Can say I only know of 2 people who claim to be vegan. One is an extended member of the family and the other was an eye doctor I visited a few years ago to get an eye exam and a new pair of glasses.

During the course of the initial exam the Dr. just had to mention she was a vegan. That tidbit of information came out of the blue and it immediately put a cause to her sickly, gaunt appearance.

Frick vegans

You have to make a special menu for mentally ill people? That is what she expected then Was disappointed that she only had one choice?

Weird cult of hyper demanding douche bags. We have a menu. If there is nothing on there that fits your insane dietary needs; then kick rocks and go elsewhere. We don’t care if this “inconveniences” you.

Modern women are becoming insufferable.

How is he the lesser of two evils? He lied to a customer he could make them a vegan meal and then got mad they left him a well deserved 1 star review.

The guy is playing victim b/c he got called out for being a liar.


This. And you don't have to "ban" dishes. Just say you can't make vegan dishes.

He simply forgot about her, he did make her another vegan meal which she accepted. Then she posted her one-star review to a vegan FB group and they started brigading his restaurant with one-star reviews. Stupid bitch enlisted a bunch of her mentally ill liars to hurt his business. Looks like you are amongst that group too.

the issue is people are intolerant of mistakes, or having empathy when a mistake happens. everyone waits for that "Gotcha Moment" to feel superior.

mistakes happen, humanity needs to be a little more understanding instead of looking for a reason to complain.
