jpo,

Thank you for posting the manager's response.

As I thought, their policy is a reaction to a previous incident.

The individual who wore a kilt to this establishment did not show good judgement and has made things very difficult for the bar and for other kilt wearers.

That person may be at fault but because of them the establishment has to try to figure out how to prevent further incidents.

I certainly understand you not wishing to give your patronage to this bar, but on the other hand I certainly understand their policy.

Hopefully there will be more kilted gentlemen willing to make small compromises who will frequent the bar and show that this other fellow was the exception and not the rule.

Cheers

Jamie
