Jamie Robinson, owner of the “Northbound Smokehouse” in Minneapolis, supports the $15 minimum wage – with a tip credit (allowing the restauranteur to deduct tip money from the basic wage).
For this, the Social Justice Warriors trashed him on social media.
Lately, Robinson’s noticed that his political activism has turned Northbound’s Facebook page into a political arena. According to Robinson, supporters of the “15 Now” movement, which wants a $15 minimum, with no exception for restaurants, are leaving negative comments — not about Northbound’s food or beer, but about its owner…Last week, Robinson decided he was so sick of those critics, he didn’t want any more of their money. If any of them showed their “hypocritical face” in Northbound, and Robinson recognized them, they’d be “escorted right out the door in shame,” according to a Facebook post screenshot.
I’ve eaten there in the past – the food and beer are all excellent.
And I’ll be going there again, on basic principle. Soon.
Great food. I’ll only eat there when I can eat outside. Kinda overpowered by the smokiness. Very good food, decent to above average craft beer selection. And you can eat there without having a large beard and work boots.
I’d hate to live in Minneapolis right now with all these nuts.

I think we have our new MOBILE party location set
MOB, goddamn autocorrect, making me sound dumber…
Wow! It’s deja vu all over again! I had dinner there on Saturday night, not even realizing what was happening.
Agree with FRESCH. A bit smokey smelling in there.
