North Carolina’s alcohol enforcement agency is investigating the Applebee’s in Fayetteville, NC., after a family says their two children, 3 and 13, were served alcoholic beverages.
The furious parents said the waitstaff served the children alcohol instead of the non-alcoholic beverages they ordered.
McKenneth Kirkman Sr. said that he ordered virgin, or non-alcoholic, pina coladas Sunday at an Applebee’s in Fayetteville. Kirkman says his 13-year-old son noticed his drink “tasted funny.” Kirkman says his 3-year-old granddaughter had drunk about half her beverage by the time that happened. A spokeswoman for the Department of Public Safety says the state’s Alcohol Law Enforcement division is investigating. Spokeswoman Patty McQuillan says a similar incident occurred in 2015 involving a 5-year-old. h/t
Apple Group Chief Operating Officer Elizabeth McGee says the restaurant is sorry for the mistake. She says the chain will make necessary changes so it doesn’t happen again.
