Just had the worst experience at a business ever. I'm a Canadian and toured the entire east coast and some of the Midwest. Been to many bars/pubs/clubs in different places around the US and the world and settled in Cleveland for my residency training. I went to the flying monkey with my wife and friend. My friend got the first round and I went up to get the second. The bar wasn't even busy and I was standing in a clear spot, at the bar. The 3 bartenders (two dressed up females and the guy that looked like he rolled out of bed) literally ignored more for 10mins. There was literally less than 10 customers served in that time span, all who arrived after me and were served before. Three different people stood beside me and were served. One of the bartenders literally even verbally acknowledged "just a second", served the person beside me then walked away and came back to serve others. I was wondering if this was all just in my head but the guys beside me were even aware that I was being blantantly ignored. Every packed venue at night serves everyone at the bar including me. I've never been ignored blantantly. It was slow at the bar, I was clearly visible and even acknowledged, and I had money. I looked around to see what made me different and the two things that came to my mind was that I wasn't all cleaned up for the evening cause I was moving into a new house today so I was taking out a friend to say thanks. But the one aforementioned bar tender was sporting the same outfit. And secondly, the color of my skin. I honestly thought that treemont was supposed to be young and hip, this diverse and open to differences. But I definitely stuck out. I couldn't help but feel that it came down to the color of my skin as no other clear indication was present. So that's my conclusion and a reason I'll be deferring my work colleagues from stopping by here when we plan to go bar hopping soon. Sorry flying monkey, you have a nice establishment but it's staffed with passively aggressive individuals whose intent in my opinion are racist. For this reason, I would discourage non-Caucasian to spend your hard earned dollars on establishments you'll enjoy and won't ruin your night because of how you look despite being 99.999999999% genetic similarity.
