Looked forward to stopping at Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar for a while after seeing they combined 3 of my favorite things: Giant Pretzels, Charcuterie & beer and then some Indiana Jones!
Yesterday was perfect day to try it and during our last excursion before heading to the airport. After ditching my wife at the line to Gideons Bakery, I headed across to the Hangar bar with my little guy (5) at around 1pm. The place was at roughly 50% indoors and probably 10% outdoors and since I had my son I asked for a table outside. The woman working the door disgustingly looked at us and rudely said as if I was an idiot "you know this is A BAR and we dont serve full meals?" to which I replied, "We'd just like to try the pretzel board and maybe a beer for me, he'll probably have a sprite." She said (being rude again), "fine I will put you on the list". We then stood outside in front of the place for a while while others came and were taken right in (no call aheads or online reservations there either, tho some may have sat right at the bar). I went around the side and could see that the vast majority of outside tables were still empty so I asked if she knew how long it would be and she said "you are welcome to just go seat yourself outside if that's what you want" so we headed over to that side and the bartender said, "If you want to sit at a table, have the hostess seat you but there's no wait." Back to her we went, told her what he said and then she says "well, now I have to put you back in line for a table!" THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE WAITING. At this point my wife finishes at Gideons (who had a 30 minute line) and came over to say "screw this place, lets go somewhere else".
Left super disappointed and quite angry.
