Thumbs down And here is why I am never going to eat at the Yardhouse again...

This is not a joke, it's so surreal I almost didn't believe it happened to me. This is not my first time at the Yardhouse, but it will certainly be my last. While eating at the bar today, I felt and saw some sawdust from one of the posts on the ceiling fall on me. I thought nothing of it until about a minute later it happened again, and then about 1 minute after that a baby mouse (yeah you read that right, a baby mouse -about 1 week old) fell from the ceiling into my lap. I stood up quickly, a manager came over and casually swept the mouse into a dust pan after he had been notified of the situation. He offered to pay our bill, which was considerate, but to say that I was dismayed and disgusted - as was my friend with me- is an understatement.
While I didn't scream, or cause a scene, it was disturbing and I don't plan on eating at the Yardhouse ever again. I hope that in the future they can do more to prevent rodents from falling on to their customers. I guess the manager is lucky that I am not the type of customer to cause a problem at the restaurant, but you all can be assured that ALL of my friends who frequent the Yardhouse will no longer be doing so.

Yeah...no thanks. I had the heebie jeebies all the way home, and I don't even mind mice...just not in restaurants.

Never heard of the place.

Some of the bars I frequent would probably make that place look like Martha Stewart's kitchen. What happened sounds like a freak accident. When the second mouse falls in your lap, then we'll talk
