La Mutinerie

I see I'm not the only one who's experienced this kind of treatment and violence in this bar. Apparently, you have to be deemed "queer enough" by the bouncer to get in. I'm bisexual, but because I'm currently in a heterosexual relationship, I was refused entry. If that was indeed the reason for the refusal, it's illegal and constitutes discrimination based on sexual orientation. As a reminder, in France, refusing access to a good or service because of sexual orientation is punishable under Articles 225-1 and 225-2 of the Penal Code. Quite ironic for an establishment that claims to promote inclusion and diversity.

Avoid this bar at all costs! Besides the arrogant and unpleasant staff, the biphobia is palpable even when they're not spoken. It's best to just order and not talk to them. I wanted to have a nice evening with my friend, but it didn't end there! This place is discriminatory. Why? Because I didn't have to pay a deposit, while my friend, who is Black, had to? That's discrimination! It's shameful for a queer and friendly bar to have this kind of behavior in a place that's supposed to be open. On top of being stared at and questioned about my sexuality and my "not queer enough" appearance. Hasn't the world evolved enough to understand that "codes" and "stereotypes" are outdated, even when it comes to sexuality? Shameful.

Shameful! This place deserves zero stars. The staff is extremely unpleasant; absolutely avoid this establishment. My friend was asked for a €1 deposit when ordering her drink, which wasn't asked of me. The only visible difference between us? Her skin color. The staff offered no explanation. This is blatant discrimination, witnessed firsthand. Shame on the management for allowing this kind of practice to exist in their establishment.
