Hunters Palm Springs — Restaurant in Palm Springs

Discimaination poor service and Intimadating aggressive rude security!!

The details- I am a long time Palm Springs resident and frequent the local gay bars often . Last night (Friday 4/27/2018) I went with two other girlfirends to Hunters Bar in Palm Springs at fist we were sitting at the bar and ignored and not served drinks while the bartenders cattered to other Men that were not waiting as long. Once we finnally were served the bartender made the wrong drink i told him and he would fix it and i didnt even complain then and still tipped.10 mins after I bought me and my friends a round a large intimadating security guard approched me and told me to get up and get out and wouldnt give me a reason why.I quickly got up and went outside the bar as i figured this was some mix up and I asked if i was kicked out for a reason and he and at that point another large security guard named Herby was with him and they rolled there eyes and refused to even talk to me and tell me why i couldnt be there. I feel it was an illgal act of discrimination because I am a women. l am in shock I was treated so bad without any explanation as to what the problem was. I wasnt drunk I had never had problems before and it was extremely embarrassing that me and my two girlfriends had to leave that way as if I had commited a crime or something there. I had been to hunters several times in the past and treated welll because I was hanging out with the manager Jen who I briefly was kinda of seeeing but ultimently ended up dating somwone else as did she which was fine and I didnt think that we were on bad term or anything and i dont even think she was there when i was kicked out.Anyway I had always been nice to staff and tipped well never had any problems whatsover when at Hunters untill last night .

It was very clear that the staff did not want women at there bar and i think this needs to be brought to the attention to the local community and better business bureau for...

Update :: Friday, January 19th, 2018. Sat at the front "main" bar during happy hour. Hunters was busy. The bartenders really focussed on getting the drinks out. BUT.....not CLEANING at all! When we sat down we literally had to gather up dirty glasses, beer bottles and dirty napkins. The bar top was gross. With the current flu and hepatitis A sweeping through the gay community you would think CLEANING would be a priority. PLEASE...... hire a cleaning staff to keep your bar safe.. it is gross to see people sneezing at the bar and no one is wiping down the place with a CLEAN rag and disinfectant. At one point a bar patron had to ask the bartenders for a rag.... they gave it to him... THEY DID NOT CLEAN IT THEMSELVES... VERY BUGGY!! Pro: Fun place.. Great music and sound system... nice crowd. Gets very busy late in evening. ;)

Cons: Bar top is gross.. We sat down to dirty glasses and trash. Bartender came and picked up glasses.. did not wipe ANYTHING DOWN. With the Hep A problems in San Diego and LA.. this SHOULD BE A PRIORITY!! Bathrooms are a mess. Odd smell in...

We visited this place last Friday to celebrate my friend's birthday, but were quite disappointed to find it predominantly occupied by bachelorette parties. Although we had been forewarned about this, the extent of it was still surprising. Ultimately, we walked in and promptly left.

While I value inclusivity and appreciate straight women enjoying themselves, it's disheartening when a queer space is overwhelmingly dominated by a different demographic. To anyone planning bachelorette parties here, please consider the impact on the existing community – it can come across as disrespectful and disruptive.

Additionally, the VIP booths seemed to occupy valuable space that could be better used to expand the dance floor. We've never had a chance to enjoy the dance floor due to overcrowding. Removing these booths could create more room for the majority who just want to dance and have...
