"I used to enjoy this restaurant as a peaceful retreat in the heart of the city and considered myself a regular customer, but unfortunately that is no longer the case. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a woman who was extremely rude and condescending simply because I was a mother with a stroller. It seemed that she was at a managerial level. She was very aggressive in her tone and complained about previous incidents with mother and baby groups and their strollers taking up too much space. This all happened before she even checked our reservation. It turned out that my friend had mistakenly booked for the following day, but she made me feel like I had come on the wrong day and tried to manipulate the situation. When I politely mentioned that I felt her tone was rude, especially since I didn't make the booking, she became even more patronizing and dismissive. It was a shame because the restaurant was almost empty with plenty of space available. I met up with my mom friends outside and we decided to go somewhere else where we were greeted with kindness and given our own space. It's unfortunate that this encounter was so unnecessary, but I wanted to warn other mothers that this woman was not supportive of mothers, so think twice before making a reservation. A mother with a stroller is already dealing with a lot, and even if there is limited space, kindness should still be shown."
