The Loaded Dog — Restaurant in England

We came for some drinks and a starter however we left after our first drink. The bouncer was extremely rude, as he came up to our face and told us there was a dress code policy after we had entered the establishment. It felt like a racist situation as other people were dressed in track suits and were not rudely told about the policy. I felt quite embarrassed to be attacked in front of a crowd of people.

Even got darts and bookcases; what’s not to like? And to top it all they’re open late most nights - with karaoke on at the weekends.
