"You dont pick the lane. I tell you which one." -Guy at the front desk

Our niece is 5 and loves bowling, but is as loud as any other kid when excited, so we kindly requested a lane not next to anyone so we dont disturb their game. All but one lane was being used and he put us next to them, so we decided to mini golf and go to landmark for bowling instead. We've never had an issue making that request at landmark even though they're always busy. I'm sure the 4 teens would've been thrilled that we would be right next to them instead of literally anywhere else.

He was rude as soon as we went in and asked if we pay there. It's a simple question that doesn't warrant any attitude.

I can chalk this up to a call off and he possibly being thrown in there with no knowledge of the bar. That said, he could have looked it up on his phone or asked what where in the drinks I mentioned to him. Once again, small nitpicks but things that were glaringly obvious...

So first when we walked in we had a reservation for 6, upon paying they proceed to wave a tip jar in your face like the homeless people plaguing the roads. Then upon putting my shoes on and getting a bowling ball, i decide I want to get a drink, I present my VALID ID. The bartender refused to serve me despite the fact Ive been 21 for several months. I go to the counter and present a foid card with my birthdate, my actual valid Id, and a basset license ( I can legally serve people alcohol). The man walks off with my and comes back and says I cannot be served alcohol despite the fact I can go across the street and buy a PINT of liquor with no problem. The only good thing they did was provide a...
