TLDR: Speakeasy bartender tricked us into stepping out and then locked us out.
Welp that ruined our night. We had a nice, if not a bit overpriced, meal and drink at the bar. Were about to leave when I saw signs for the speakeasy. I asked the hostess if we could see. She kindly took us back and we thought it looked neat and might want to stay for a drink. The bartender inside said he could seat us. As soon as my boyfriend stepped in, the bartender quickly said "wait let me show you something outside". We followed, excited and curious at the little speakeasy nuance he was going to show us. Once out he said "we have a dress code, no shorts" and slammed the door in our faces. Neither of us would've minded not being served due to dress code but the way he tricked us to leaving and then locked us out was...bizarre. The whole way home we were in shock and hurt.
