THE WORST EXPERIENCE!
Giving them a one star due to the horrible service my friends and I received from the staff over the past weekend. My friends and I were out celebrating a birthday and had gone to Poseidon to order some food to bring back over with us to Harland Brewery where we were hanging out. We decided to get a round of shots after we placed our food order.
Girl bartender was nice and said happy birthday. Fine. The cashier (young male) wasn't too friendly to begin with. We also ordered a lot of food; 3 pizzas, 2 salads, and 3 orders of wings. Then for some reason it all went downhill.
The birthday girl decided to go back to Poseidon after some time to get another round of shots. . . in the middle of taking our shots, a staff member from Harland walks in and says something to one of Poseidon's bartenders while looking over at us girls. This is only after our second trip to take a shot, overall total trips would be around 4.
From this moment on staff at Poseidon started acting super rude with us and even making comments along the lines of. . . "Isn't it a lil too early to be taking shots. . . " Mind you, it's a Saturday around 3pm and we already mentioned we were celebrating a birthday!! Also, why make this comment when tending a bar?! I've worked at a very popular brewery before and would have never treated customers this way!
It was so bizarre for us women to be treated this way for the first time ever!! They obviously had an issue with us going from Harland, then to Poseidon, to get shots, although we placed a big food order and on top of that had placed another order a separate time for two more pizzas! None of us were even intoxicated to the point where we could have caused a scene, but they made us feel like we were acting that way.
Staff at Poseidon even refused service after we asked staff at Harland what the issue was. We were prejudged by both staff at Harland and Poseidon. My group of friends and I have never acted out of character and are always respectful every where we go. We also obviously know that Harland/Poseidon are not environments to party all crazy and act wild, but the staff made us feel like that's how we were taking it. Not even going to lie, the food was SO GOOD! It's a shame we had this bad experience and will never be back to visit. I just really had to put this out there before anyone else experiences the same.
