The Lexington restaurant opened its doors for dinner for the first time in nearly two weeks after it gained national attention for refusing to serve White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders and asking her to leave.

(snip)

Trump supporters flocked to the restaurant in protest after news broke, hoping to send the message that people need to “start showing a little respect for the President of the United States,” Grub Street reports.

Gee, maybe somebody should go "get in the faces" of the diners. I hear that works. 🍽🍴💩

Should be perfectly okay, if there is a diner there with a pink c*** hat, to yank it off (with some of their hair), and throw their drink into their face. Perfectly okay, if they are not going to be hypocrites about it.

“Who will help.me destroy my profitable business” said the Little Red Hen? The owners of the Red Hen really dont knkw much about the restautant biz. No matter how popular a restaurant is the odds are stacked against them for many reasons unrelated to politics. My Dad and uncle had a wholesale food business that served the restaurants around NYC. As profitable as it was they were constantly looking for new customers for this very reason.

What on earth is funny about that?

I know 2 restaurants that size——and you ALWAYS need reservations——marvelous service,marvelous food.

There are small restaurants all over the place.

The problem is that “pilgrimage” is only a short walk for W&L professors. It’s pretty much right next to the university, and it’s a tiny place. Only getting a few extra diners per meal would fill the place up. Of course, lefty professors will continue to frequent it. High prices and small portions are their thing anyway.

This isn’t a large business where a boycott could actually make a difference after all. They only need a handful or two of extra customers every day to be booked up permanently. And they get to be heroes in the eyes of the only people that matter to them as human beings, their fellow leftists.

“go in wearing MAGA hats”

I’ve read many comments on twitter from leftists saying staff should contaminate food of Trump supporters.

So, don’t bring out MAGA hats until after they’ve been served.

It’s a liberal area AND the place had fewer than 50 seats. Who cares if liberals eat together - in a different time they would have stopped blacks from entering ... and an earlier time Jews would have been denied.

“Liberals” seem to be under the impression that ‘choice of victim’ is the key to being ‘moral’. They are wrong - as all the haters before them were wrong.

They will have some traffic after a bit, with hate filled lefties from nearby DC and Richmond paying homage. After 2 months this will die down and nary a soul will be in that place.

Sanders should show up again and dare her to kick her out again.

I predicted on the night this went down that the lefties would make sure that it was filled up every night for a month if they have to bus people in to do it. Then when the next outrage occurs, they'll pack up and take the media with them to go scream at something else. Then the Red Hen will be left on its own, in a pro-Trump community famous as the hard core leftwing establishment. The outcome of their activism and subsequently being used by the leftists will be that they will shrivel up and close within a year.

So far, so good on that prediction.
