I had a couple really fantastic drinks here-- bonus points for creative use of coffee and ice cubes! Plus, I like the space-- rustic, kinda underground, and the music coincided (almost suspiciously) with what I had on the iPod a hobo stole from me earlier in the week.
That said... OK. You have procedures and rules. I am a silly silly man apparently, the kind who thinks you can stand at a bar and order a beverage. This was a terrible mistake, I now know this. Mea culpa! The hostess was pretty impatient and condescending about correcting my errant ways. I didn't really get what the problem was there-- I already know I'm an idiot, I don't need you telling me that!
On another note, there was a woman going around telling people that the Spotted Owl has rules and to please extinguish your cell phones. Unfortunately, that is not the case. This seemed to me a capital idea, buy the lady a drink! Perhaps that rule should be considered... I'll put that in the suggestion box.
