"Recently, I took my children to the Irish coffee shop in Yonkers, hoping for a pleasant dining experience and a taste of Irish hospitality. Unfortunately, our visit turned out to be quite disappointing and discriminatory. Upon entering the coffee shop, we were greeted by a rude woman who seemed unwelcoming. When I went to place our order, she looked at us with disdain, stating that we were not welcome in her establishment and suggesting we eat elsewhere. This discriminatory treatment left us feeling hurt and marginalized. As Irish Travelers, we had hoped to celebrate our heritage and enjoy a taste of Ireland, but instead, we were met with exclusion and prejudice. It is disheartening to encounter such behavior in this day and age. All customers should be treated with kindness and fairness, regardless of their background. I hope the management takes action to address this unacceptable behavior and ensures it does not happen again. I urge potential customers to consider other options that prioritize inclusivity and respect for all patrons. It is important for businesses to create a welcoming environment for all customers, regardless of their background."
