I am an out of state student from Washington, over 21. The past few times I have visited Milk Parlor the bouncer has been extremely rude, especially regarding my ID. I completely understand the need to verify identification, and look out for fake IDs, but I have provided a second form of identification (passport photo and credit card) multiple times and was still turned away. The bouncer even bent my Intermediate Identification card after showing him my passport photo. I had to pay to get it replaced, and when I visited again this evening, he tried to break my new Real ID. I politely asked him

Had the Ford Capri sandwich with seasoned fries. Sandwich was melt in your mouth amazing, fries had a gentle kick to them. I should come here sometime when they have an event, seems like a great atmosphere inside. Price was very fair, service was excellent as well.
