I went to the bar with a group of friends this past weekend and the bouncer at the front door had the nerve to tell me that what I was wearing was not appropriate. His words were “ I don’t have a problem with it but the owner is lowkey racist and will kick females out if they are wearing something provocative.” He said this after the first bouncer already checked my id and gave me the good to go. He said he isn’t supposed to let me in but he did anyway after explaining that my skirt and see through shirt was inappropriate. Mind you, I had a tank top underneath my MESH top and I even had stockings under my skirt. Conservative but definitely bar night attire. I don’t know if this was me being racially profiled because he seemed to be a minority as well but I am just hung up over the fact that he opened his mouth to tell me why he shouldn’t let me enter the bar.. but let me in anyway? Me and my friends didn’t feel right giving the bar our money so we immediately left. We stood outside trying to figure out if we should confront the owner. I’ve been going to this bar for 3 years, and I’ve seen other females dressed in more revealing clothing than I was wearing. I won’t be coming here again. I am both hurt and surprised by this crazy encounter. As a female I should not being having a discussion with a man about what I am wearing if it does not concern him. He didn’t say it in a rude way but it was just an awful experience and quite embarrassing on his part.. other girls around me were standing up for me.

Does 1785 allow 18 year olds in? We just want to dance and have a good time! They don’t open until 8 trying to get an answer before then

Racist. Never lets me in and keeps asking for my UGA Id when I see everyone else go in without asking. I’m also dressed the same as everyone else and they still don’t let me in. Don’t come to this lame ass bar 😂

I had an absolutely dreadful experience with the bartender Kinsleigh at this establishment. From the moment I approached the bar, it was clear that this person was not only disorganized but also wildly unpredictable. She has no concept of basic customer service. Her erratic behavior and inability to be a kind human is a horrible look for this bar. If you value your sanity and want a smooth bar experience, I strongly suggest you avoid this place and her.
