And even when i came over there nicely asking to keep it down because i was trying to work all i got was a " my bad" while they giggled and continued what they were doing. I had to leave and go to the local library because of how disruptive they were being, never ever going on a work trip here ever again, and neither is my business!

Fast forward bill came and waitress said burger was full price after 6. She didn't realize that. Manager came out and said waitress had made a mistake. Burger was full price and we would be charged full price. No apologies, no discount, nothing. Waitress felt bad and apologized. Manager blamed waitress but still charged us full price. This is not right. A mistake was made and should've been corrected by at least giving them a free dessert or just charged half price. I can't lie... food is really delicious but the way this was handled was wrong.
