At a restaurant or bar, for example there are several legitimate reasons to refuse service, some of which include: Patrons who are unreasonably rowdy, harass others and cause trouble Patrons who would overfill occupancy beyond legal capacity if allowed entry Patrons who arrive just before closing time or after the kitchen is closed Patrons lacking in adequate hygiene (filthy clothes, extreme body odor) • All these reasons for refusal concern the comfort and safety of other guests. ———————————— Establishments that serve alcohol not only have a right to refuse service but are often bound in many situations by an actual legal responsibility to stop serving extremely intoxicated customers who behave in unruly or dangerous ways, and present a danger to the public or themselves. —————————————————— Can a business refuse service to someone just because they don’t like a customer’s casual attire? Sure. Some restaurateurs won’t serve patrons who don’t meet their particular clothing standards — from the classic “No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service” all the way to requiring that all patrons wear ties, collared shirts or sportcoats. • To keep a table all day long, patrons must also spend money. Coffeehouses, restaurants and bars are places of business after all, and non-customers don’t have a right to simply sit around loitering upon business premises without buying anything. It happens often enough, that if only one or two members of a large party are actually eating or drinking while the rest are just hanging out, tying up tables for which paying customers are waiting, then they can be politely asked to leave — … and if a visitor refuses to leave, the police can even be summoned. ————————————— Federal anti-discrimination laws allow businesses to refuse service to any person for any reason — unless they are discriminating against a protected class. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits public accommodations from refusing service to customers based upon such characteristics as: Age Gender Religious Belief Race or Skin Color Citizenship Status National Origin Veteran Status Pregnancy Disability ——————————— Some states like California go even further than the Federal baseline to prohibit discrimination based upon: Marital Status Sexual Orientation Medical Condition Political Affiliation ————————— Within compliance under law, how can you get rid of people at your place of business who loiter or are rude, loud, and obnoxious? • Make sure appropriate signs are placed within clear view of your guests, to indicate that disruptive behavior and loitering are not allowed, giving notice that you do indeed Reserve The Right To Refuse Service • Great for any business owner to place on a door or in a window. ——————————— convey the message loud and clear ———————————— Hard to miss, Easy to read Bright, right to the point— Buy More Save More!
