Thank goodness that was all.  Since I wasn't there I started to imagine . . . a rival Pontoon boat club not wanting their territory infringed on.  :)

The following complaint was sent by me to Denny's corporate office;

https://www.dennys.com/contact/ 
Store zip; 55437 / Store number; 8080

Should be store 7325, zip 55420

We made a group reservation for our boat club as we have done many times. Our club includes children and our children have been welcome in the past. This time we were informed by the manager that our kids would NOT be welcome in the room we have used in the past. He claimed it was against the Bloomington, MN liquor law.
Our search of Bloomington's  laws does not confirm this attitude.
The manager was very, very rude and did not offer us the option of moving our group to another area where the children would be allowed.
Our group took our meeting to a Perkins restaurant a few blocks away and the grateful staff took good care of our group of 18.

Well written Jim, wouldn't be surprised if he looses his job over this one. Thats a pretty big chunk of change they missed out on.
