Was it a really fancy place or something? I don't see the problem tbh, it's just a hat

It is and it should make no impact if say you turned up for an interview with one one

but it would


They just want the place to have some standards I guess

An interview is different, you're a paying customer in a restaurant

and you are entering into someone's business and if they have rules you must abide by them as long as they are legal

Clearly........doesn't mean I have to agree with them though.......which is what i posted in this thread.........

And as a customer you have the choice to go elsewhere 'cause there's plenty of extremely high-end restaurants that don't live in the dark ages and appreciate your custom.
As long as you act respectably and are clean a restaurant shouldn't even have the right to dictate or even comment on what you wear.

Yes it's quite rude really. I would just spend my money elsewhere

Well they dont want that type of customer so it works well for both sides then

win win

a hat wearing type?

yes.


the reason people remove hats (not worn so much nowadays sadly) was that if you're wearing a hat indoors, it suggests that you have someplace better to be (ie was deemed rude).

Just a common courtesy

Me too! **** 'em.
Like i said earlier, if i went into a restaraunt with, for example, my Dad who was going out for a meal for the first time after having had brain surgery and someone tried to tell him to take his hat off i would not be responsible for my actions.
It really makes me angry in this day and age that people still think they can run establishments where they can dictate what you have to wear to spend your money in there or even if you can even eat/drink in there if you happen to be a woman!
Time for them to step into the 21st Century!

Well luckily we don't live in the 1940's anymore :hee:

we may not but our manners, courtesys and traditions are rooted firmly in the past

:smug:

what type of business do you run yourself?

Speak for yourself grandpa :hee:

:douf:

Where did i mention running a business and what's it got to do with this thread or you ?

Which "high end" restaurants are you referring to, where they're okay with you rocking up in a baseball cap? I'm intrigued to know...

The restaurant has the right to impose a dress code. It's the same thing as some bars at resorts not wanting you in their bar without a shirt.

Ill take that as a no

It wasn't a yes or no question :hee:

Well seen as baseball caps are now as common as necklaces used as part of an outfit they need to change not you

yes baseball caps and necklaces

so 2017

If you cant respect the dress code then eat somewhere else.

And trainers/sneakers? they've been around for ages, you still wont get into most decent nightclubs wearing them, places have a dress code for a reason.
