Pied Piper Lounge — Restaurant in Rancho Cordova

I found out just today that in order to participate in karaoke it is now required to buy alcoholic drinks. However my stepped in and his wife do not drink alcohol at all but they love to sing karaoke. My stepdad has a back injury that requires certain medications that cannot be mixed with alcohol and his wife as evel up C which with her medications as she was to drink alcohol it could quite possibly kill her. When I told that to the bartender she said it didn't matter they were still going to in force by an alcoholic drinks in order to attend karaoke. We are being discriminated against because we do not drink alcohol so we could no longer sing in karaoke yet only those who buy alcohol are allowed to participate. That is discrimination not only gives the fact that we don't drink alcohol but also discrimination based on our medical disabilities and on top of that my stepdad should designated driver so even as a doesn't native driver which by law is not supposed to drink alcohol he can no longer participate and karaoke.

It's adjacent to the newest luxury movie theater in SacTown, lots of residential and multifamily housing, employment centers like Kaiser, Town & Country Plaza, Costco, etc. People like to get off work and grab a drink together or grab a drink before seeing a movie.

I am not a fan but I could be. The Pied Piper has potential. Truly, outside of that they really just need some directional signs to inform patrons that parking is provided for in the rear. The front lot only accommodates a handful of cars (maybe 8-10) and is shared with at least 3-4...
