The Bok Bar, Covent Garden

I've been living in London for two years now and have been in the Bok Bar a few times. My wife and son are visiting me from S.A. and i thought I would show them a little piece of the home country. After waiting 10 minutes for service we got told that my four year old son was not allowed in the bar. What should I do with him? Leave him on the pavement? Needless to say we took our bussiness to a english pub where my son was more than welcome. It just made me remember why I left S.A. So....if you want to go drinking without your family you are welcome at the Bok Bar. If you have kids you are not. I can assure you that I will not bother to ever go there again and I have relayed my experience to all I know who go there. Shoddy treatment may be acceptable back home......not here!!
