Hidden Door Inc

what can i say. theres nothing good to say about this bar. smells like bad bo inside, rude disrespectul bar patrons.lots of arrogant drunks who insult and try to grope you. i mean i had total strangers trash talking me for no reason. i got tired of having to yell at people or having to restrain myself from punching some jerk. course the bigger problem is the bar serving people who are obviously intoxicated . wont be going back to this dump ever again.

If you know, you know. If you don't know, go here and you will. Best in Dallas bar none. LGBTQIA+ welcome. No cliques. Safe space for everyone, no matter who you are, you are welcome here.

Excelente lugar para pasar un día conversando y disfrutando es súper espectacular

BLACK, BROWN, AND LATINO MEN BEWARE!!!!! A friend and I came to the Hidden Door establishment on Sunday 10/15/2023. We decided to check this bar out after a friend had told us about it. Upon our arrival we were greeted by a skinny white man who looked to be high off something and he was sitting in a chair, and black heavy set female security guard with uneven dreads and dark glasses, and piercings on her face. The female security guard opened the door for us as we walked in. My friend went to the ATM machine to get money and I went to the bathroom. Once I was done using the bathroom, both my friend and I went to the bar to get a drink. We stood in line, got our drinks, and carried on to this large patio area. We had found a small area and decided to stand there. Within 5 minutes of standing there the black female security guard who opened the door then approaches us and says that the Skinny white man at the door sent her to us to see if we were smoking weed, she then says that the white people who own and run this establishment do not like guys like us who smoke or bring weed in, she then says I know you don’t have any weed or anything like that, but he thinks y’all do because of the way you smelled when you walked into the bar. She then says if you light anything up in here, you got to go. The security guard saw our faces, because my friend being a Black man 6’1 and an executive director of a nursing facility, and me being Puerto Rican who works for a major Real Estate Firm were shocked that we were being faced with such disrespect. We honestly thought the security was joking, or maybe herself intoxicated due to her slurred words and random accusation. Now the white man was the one who felt this way, but he sent the female guard thinking because she was black we would not take offense, nor would they be in trouble with any kind of race altercation. You could tell she wanted a reaction from us, but we are both professional and classy men we let her carry on and embarrass herself as she spoke, and then walked away. My friend and I did not say a peep which I am proud of my brother for that, and what’s good its all on film. After she walked away these were my thoughts: A) We were being accused of something that no one witnessed, and why did they not stop us at the door, why wait for us to get drinks and head outside where we stood in the midst of lots of people who I am sure would not appreciate weed smoke in their face, nor in front of two DJs and other employees. We would have been kicked out before we even got to our corner if we were smoking weed. B) Were also being confronted and threatened to be removed for behavior we did not display nor act out C) The security guard and door man created a narrative based off a scent, no real concreate proof. Mind you this is a bar where you smell tobacco, poppers, alcohol, weed, and other weird smells. Also, people were coming in and out like the train station, and so why wait all that time till we get a drink and settle down to then confront us. Why not stop us at the door, if that was your impression or thought. D) Also, make sense why she is security guard and not a real cop. As a security guard you’re supposed to observe then act. This lady acted, with no observation. Get you a real security team, I know times is hard and money is tight but low budget security companies could cost you a lawsuit or a hate crime suit. E) Also, with her being a black woman she should know better than to approach two men on something that is pure speculation. Even if a white man tells you to do something you should still understand the code of ethics and morals, which I think this bar lacks training on ethics and morals. F) Lastly, we were judged based off our street clothing and race that we were smoking weed or were involved with some kind of drug. We did get this on film, but do not want to release due to ensuring our LGBTQ places are protected and not taken from us, but the owner needs to do a serious ethics and moral training, and re-think security protocol.
