Huckabee Sanders says she was asked to leave restaurant because employees felt ‘threatened’
The Croissanterie cited employee discomfort and a 90-minute seating limit for asking Governor Sanders to leave after a 75-minute visit, sparking differing accounts and national media coverage.
- On Friday, March 13, Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders was asked to leave The Croissanterie in Little Rock after the owner reportedly cited staff felt "threatened and uncomfortable" due to her political views.
- Management stated they were 'surprised and uncertain how best to respond' when the Governor arrived, supporting employees who expressed discomfort after the security detail's presence became widely noticed.
- Since the restaurant has a 90-minute table limit, staff approached the State Police Executive Protection Detail twice, and as the party complied, a customer yelled, "it's time to go," with a crude hand gesture.
- Governor Sanders released a statement noting, "Arkansans are known for their warm hospitality," while criticizing the establishment. The administration will focus on "lifting Arkansans up, not tearing others down with discrimination and hate."
- Ultimately, the restaurant denies any statements 'indicating that anyone felt threatened' and added, 'However, we stand by our choice to support our employees and guests.
