      I was told I could not be seated in most sections of the restaurant and would be restricted to one table in the corner. I was extremely generous leaving a $50 tip for a server's young son. Since that time she is NOT allowed to serve my family. I never go in the restaurant alone I am always with my son, I have never engaged in inappropriate behavior of any kind. I go out of my way to thank everyone in the restaurant for anything they do from pouring coffee to refilling the splenda to serving the meal. My son ****** can attest that we treat anyone who serves us with the utmost respect. These restrictions on where we sit and where we have to sit, and who can and cannot serve us are heartbreaking especially as a disabled veteran. I have heard rumors that Black Bear is not veteran friendly. This certainly does not help that. Your Ms. ************************* has been no help whatsoever. This needs to be resolved by someone at your corporate headquarters.

      I don't believe this was sent to the correct location. I am the General Manager and this is the very first time that I have seen any thing of the sort. The customers address is based out of **********, so it makes me believe that this was a mistake.

      Good afternoon,
       
      I have reached out to the guest and will send his request to the Black Bear Diner in *********, ********** so they may process the refund.  Guest stated they partially refunded the order but he is looking for a full refund.
      I have copied the Franchise Business Consultant in the email to assist in expediting the refund request.
       
      His name is *************************
      Address is *********************************************************************** and phone is ************
      Email is ********************
       
       
      Thank you! 
       
      Kindest regards,
