  • "Don’t want to sell me a bagel? Bet."

    I went to a coffee shop with a friend about a year ago, and I wasn't too hungry but wanted a quick bite. It was early, and I don't eat too
  • heavily in the morning so when I approached the counter I ordered my coffee and a bagel with cream cheese. The barista told me the bagel was on the kid's menu, and therefore I
  • couldn't order it. I asked for clarity, and confirmed it was a regular-size bagel, and asked her "So you'd rather I not order anything (the other options on the menu were full breakfast meals,

  • skillets, etc.) than give you business because of a silly rule?" She gave me a very snide "Yep.", so I laughed and said "Ok." and sat down.
  • I explain to my friend what just transpired, and she said "Nah, I have an idea."
  • She proceeds to put in a DoorDash order for one bagel to be picked up. We keep an eye on the counter and sure enough, I see the bagel ready to be picked up.

  • I approach the counter and ever-so-kindly ask for my DoorDash order for <Name>. The same barista tosses the bagged bagel at me without saying a word and walks away.
  • Very weird hill for them to di on, especially because bagels are such a common breakfast item so it was odd to limit it to children, and I can understand wanting to sell the more expensive breakfast meals instead, but seriously? You're not gonna sell me a bagel, for what?
  • I should've known the vibes were off the moment I walked in and the entire coffee shop was that "Live, Laugh, Love" barndoor aesthetic too.

  • would you go out of your way to support a business that treated you like that?
  • MarkVII88. 2 hr. ago With that kind of reply from the barista, I would have said "OK forget my coffee, I won't be having anything." And promptly left that shop to go somewhere else.

  • were trying to tell me I couldn't because I'm not a kid. I know I'm not, but the kid who is waiting for me at home is and wants and kids burrito!
  • Bitter Trees. 2 hr. ago I'm sorry. I'm trying to figure out what coffee shop thinks having bagels be kids only is a good idea. Aren't people's morning runs usually coffee and a bagel??
