Hungry Jacks outlet refuses to serve eshays for teens after series of violent incidents: ‘Guests under 17 will not be served’
- A Hungry Jacks has refused service to anyone under 17
- The Whitfords chain in Perth has received an attack of violence.
- Since then, the restriction has been removed from the full eshay store.
The Hungry Jack restaurant has been forced to ban anyone under the age of 17 without a guardian after a series of violent incidents.
The Hungry Jacks outside the Westfield Whitford City shopping center in north Perth announced the ban with a sign attached to the restaurant’s front door.
‘ATTENTION. Due to recent incidents, any guests under the age of 17 will not be served without the supervision of a guardian. Greetings, Hungry Jack’s Whitfords,’ the sign said.
A Hungry Jack in Whitfords shopping center in north Perth has temporarily banned anyone under the age of 17 from its store after a series of violent incidents.
The restaurant has recently been attacked by youths, believed to be groups of eshays, who intimidated staff and customers and vandalized the shop.
“There have been incidents where kids have come into the restaurant and vandalized the place,” said John Castillo, an informal store manager. PerthNow.
‘We are just trying to protect our employees… the children are harassing the staff.’
Castillo claims that the police refused to act because the perpetrators “were minors.”
However, the sign is no longer attached to the front door, as the store’s management now identifies rioters and denies them service.
“We know who the children are now,” Castillo said.
A local who posted a video of the sign on TikTok turned on social media users.
“Imagine getting an ID to get fucking crazy,” wrote one user.
‘Make a fakie go to Hungry Jacks,’ wrote another.
The store announced the ban by placing a sign on the front of the door (pictured) which has since been removed as management decided to target individual rioters.
Some users commented on the type of customer that frequented the store.
Hungry Jacks of Whitford [is] always full of eshays’, wrote one.
“No more burgers for the eshays,” quipped another.
The decision to refuse the service follows a spate of juvenile offenses across WA.
Since the beginning of the year, at least 16 minors have been charged with more than 100 crimes, including burglaries and armed robberies.
