One night in September, one of my best friends and I went to The Wilde Rover to see a cover band perform. We get there, and I order Irish Soda bread, and a coke. And my friend, ordered water because she was the designated drvier that night.The manager and waitress treated us like crap because neither of us ordered alcohol. We were refused service for the rest of night. And, the establishment was packed beyond copasity. The security did not have a number clicker to county patrons walking in. The bar area also did not have a right to refuse service if appeared intoxicated nor, any sign offering; "Will call you a cab." either. I had to end up filing a complaint to The Better Business Bureau. Basically, my friend and I were punished for being responisble. We both have been to other bars and clubs, where we both praised for having responsibility. I urge people if you want to drink responsibly, and have a designated driver that is not going to be punished for being responsible, or if you can't drive and you need to have a cab called for you. The Wilde Rover is not the place to be. They do NOT care about safety at all. All they care is taking your money, for the alcohol, and to hell with responsibility. Please go to Big Daddy's in Woodinville, and also that of Danny's Pub in Totem Lake. I personally recommend both places because you will not only get very friendly service, and, food at reasonable prices. But, also they DO care about responsibilty, and safety for the patrons as well. When you walk in at Big Daddy's, for example, there is always a sign on the till, "Will call you a cab!" Even the security at Big Daddy's is awesome too, very friendly.
