It pains me to write this review as I have spent many years at Blue Rocks and have introduced it to other people as well, but I feel like I need to make others aware of the situation that happened here.
I was at Blue Rocks with a few friends to grab a couple beers and play darts on a Friday night in February 2023. They have leagues on Friday nights so it was highly crowded with customers. As the night went on I went to the ladies room and unbeknownst to me, a man followed me into the women's restroom. I personally did not know he was in there but thankfully another customer saw this happen and went up to my friend and told her to run and go get me since I was followed. As I was walking out of the stall my friend abruptly opened the door and that is when I saw a man standing behind the wall of the other stall (in between the sink and stall), hiding. My friend immediately grabbed me and we quickly left the restroom. I immediately walked up to the bar tender to report the situation and he said he would "take care of it and thank you for letting him know". I felt reassured in this moment since the bar tender and I have seen each other several times and I felt like had a rapport. Or so I thought...but 10 or so minutes later go by and I see the same man still standing at the bar ordering a drink. This made me uncomfortable so I went to close out my tab to leave. The bar tender then says to me "I handled the situation." I stated "no, you did not, he is still in the bar." Bar tender replied "Well I asked him why he followed you into the women's restroom and he said he didn't know he was in the women's restroom." So not only did the bar tender NOT handle the situation, he also disclosed I was the one who reported the situation and now the man knows exactly who I am, where I have been sitting, where my friends are etc. I am writing this review because not only did I feel unsafe...the bartender also did not do his duty to protect his customers. I have been going to Blue rocks for years. By myself, with my friends, with my family and have never felt unsafe until this very night. I am extremely perturbed by how this was handled (well actually it wasn't handled) and want others to be aware so they can be prepared to protect themselves when they are there. Although the man did not harm me as the situation was stopped by multiple customers (thankfully...seriously I cannot thank you enough!) it was extremely inappropriate and unfortunate. I will not be returning to this establishment and I hope Blue Rocks can learn from this situation and act accordingly the next time this happens. read more
