No speak English - no service (racist, March, money, support)

Good for business: 'No speak English - no service' sign leads to restaurant's sales TRIPLING

It was put up after a group were offended because staff could not speak Spanish. Mr Simons put up the ‘No speak English. No service’ sign in March and says he’s received great support - with some people asking for souvenir copies to take home .

I can just imagine the outrage on here if French, German or Italian restaurants refused service to American tourists who could not speak the local language.

Wow, not only did he use really ****ty Spanish, but he also used ****ty English.

e: "We only speak and understand American" lol.

Good for him, he can do whatever he wants with his restaurant.

I can't wait to see the reaction when a "Spanish" restaurant posts a sign saying "No español, no servicio" (No Spanish, no service)

Should be left entirely to the business owner as to which customers he'd like to serve/service.

I think his profit boom will be short lived.

This is just another publicity stunt. Lexington is full of racist rednecks who love this kind of behavior. Try it out in an actual city and see what happens. I'm willing to put money on it that he'd have more than just a brick thrown through the window.

Kind of old news. I remember a restaurant in Philadelphia (I think) pulling this stunt a couple years ago.
