So myself and a couple members of my team from work decided to go out for a few pints with a few of the lads from Business Development. We went to a few cafes around the city and eventually made our way to Studio about midnight. As our group was entering Studio the bouncer stopped one of us and told him he could not go in because he was not a 'regular'. Now, none of us are Dutch and we are all new to the city so none of us were 'regulars'. Why did my friend stand out? He was the only black man in the group. Apparently 'not a regular' is code for 'no blacks allowed'. I asked why none of the rest of us were told we were not regulars and the bouncer refused to speak to us and just kept saying 'he is not getting in, he is not a regular. What makes it even worse is my friend does not drink, not even a little, and was stone sober ferrying us around the city and they tell him he is not allowed in. I have heard stories about incidents like this in places, but never thought I would experience it first hand and actually see something as horribly disgusting and racist first hand, up close. It is even more appalling when its blatantly obvious. Needless to say there is a fine Irish pub literally across the street where everyone is welcome so we went there and had a brilliant evening. So steer clear of this place, unless you are the goosestepping type. read more
