I went to Flogging Molly on the 20th and was served by the rudest bartender I've ever encountered.
I ordered 2 beers and he charged me $17.49 (!!! Regular sized beer!) I paid with my visa and tipped him $2 and I was sure the transaction went through and turned back to my friends. He SCREAMED at me and followed me the 2 feet I'd moved away from the bar that it hadn't gone through. He was extremely rude thinking that I was trying to rip him off. He made fun of me to 2 other customers in line and I told him that I thought it had gone through. He patronizingly said that it hadn't and I was trying to walk away. I'd literally turned around and had taken 2 steps towards my friends...I didn't run.
I asked him to show me the receipt that had not gone through and he wouldn't. He just continued to be rude and condescending. I gave him my card and paid a second time. This time, with no tip which I told him was because he was being an ass, to which he replied "you didn't tip me the first time, bitch!"
I walked away and enjoyed the show despite this giant man child's temper tantrum. On Monday I looked at my credit card and there were 2 charges. One for the $19.49 which was my original charge and payment he said didn't go through and $17.49 for the one that I didn't tip him on.
I have left 2 messages asking someone to call me back and no one has. That man is terrible and misogynistic and condescending....and he ripped me off. No one has returned my call and I paid $36.98 for 2 beer and to have a man-child call a woman a bitch.
I will not be attending anymore shows hosted at The Palace. And you shouldn't either.
