Arrival Time: 19:09 Emergency Response Time- 19:24 Belarmar Police Department
• Entered through side and or back door. Gentlemen (2) who were standing at door did not ID me nor offered me a table to sit down. Asked if I was drinking, I replied no. Stood next to the popcorn machine to the right of the door. 1 unidentified "bouncer" who was standing at the door upon arrival approached me and asked if I was ordering something 2 eat. I responded I was unsure of what I wanted at the moment. Then, he stated "if you're not drinking, sitting at the bar or ordering something you have to leave. They don't want you here, it's "private" property. If you dont leave, im going to call the cops." I replied "the bar is full, that's why i am sitting here. And okay, call the cops." Then patiently waited in the same area for local law enforcement to arrive. • Strong possible basic civil and human rights violation? • No fair or equal opportunity to take my time, sit down and have a chance to look at the menu. Unwelcoming management. • No signage to enforce "private" property rules and regulations • Escorted off property by officers and was threatened by statements including "if you don't leave in a few seconds, I am going to lock you up for trespassing." See video footage upon request.

Read moreSo, I'll start with what surprised me first -- this place is huge. I'm talking Doctor Who levels of Tardis from the outside, massive dining space on the inside. Their classic looking bar is just as massive in the center of their dining area. The rest restaurant's ambiance is pretty no-frills, function over form. Plus, they had live music with a guitarist playing 80s and 90s covers.
Their wings were almost as surprising as first walking in. They were unfortunately out of their hottest 911 sauce, so my table ordered their house made Fat Daddy sauce (mostly buffalo and ranch premixed) and their Garlic Hot. The turn around from order to bartop was super fast. The wings were huge, well-fried and pretty crispy. But the real standouts were the sauces. They were slathered in a generous amount of each and they definitely stuck to the wing. Fat Daddy definitely had a great balance of flavors and the prep work behind the Garlic Hot must involve pounds of minced raw garlic. (Though, this might be the first time in my life where I felt like we actually reached 'too much garlic.')
Front of house service was pretty quick given how busy the bar area was. I'm surprised they were clearing the, again, absolutely massive bar and surrounding seats with only two bartenders. Tap list was varied a little bit, but they do run daily specials on macro...
Read moreGood wings and usually go there all the way from philly, but very dissapointed today as I am 42 years old and went with my girlfriend to be harassed and singled out by a guy that had yellow shirt at the door. All I know is that he for some reason wanted me to know he was 36 years old? Asked for our id's and I don't have problem but then asks for a back up? Both my girlfriend and I have state drivers licenses? So I give the guy what he wants and stairs at id's and I asked "what is there a problem????" Joking I said to guy that it was obvious I was even older than him... at this point he had even a bigger attitude? It's mo day evening and giants and dolphins where playing and all I wanted was watch game with girlfriend and have some wings ...this guy left his post at the door went all the way around the bar to shout that I should turn my hat with lid to front? ??! Eat this point I asked him was he serious as there was other guys(white) with flyers hats turned backwards for God knows how long there. I had to tell my girlfriend it's better we leave cause I got the point and didn't want trouble or make a scene....very dissapointed in establishments personnel,even the bar tender noticed and when we where leaving she was embarrassed and...
