The Jekyll and Hyde, Edinburgh

I�m holidaying in the UK from Australia and was refused service by the unfriendly Manager because my 34 year old Asian friend was not carrying any identification. We have visited pubs all over the UK and this is the only place that has been a problem. I wonder why. My complaint was brushed aside. They refused to tell me the last time they�d asked a 34 year old Caucasian for his identification. The company said �Under the current laws the person responsible for running any bar is permitted to refuse service for any number of reasons ... a reason does not have to be given.� Left a very sour taste in our mouths and spoiled our visit to Edinburgh.
