In the heart of Williamsburg, a trendy bakery named Birdee has sparked a heated debate. The issue? Dogs inside the bakery, which is not allowed by city health codes. A recent incident involving a Corgi biting a customer has brought this problem to light. Daniel Griffin, a local resident, was enjoying a meal at Birdee when a Corgi bit him. He didn't think much of it at first, but later realized the bite had broken his skin. He visited a doctor, who reassured him about rabies risks but advised him to report the incident. The bakery, known for its dog-themed decor and collaborations, has not responded to Griffin's attempts to contact them. The city's health department is now investigating the incident. They remind everyone that only service animals are allowed in restaurants to maintain cleanliness and food safety.
Griffin's experience has resonated with many locals. Some have shared similar complaints online, expressing their discomfort with the number of dogs in the bakery. They argue that the bakery should enforce the rules and not cater to dog owners who bring their pets inside. Data shows that there have been multiple complaints about pets in food establishments in Williamsburg. The issue seems to be growing, especially after the pandemic. Some people believe that pet owners need to be more responsible, especially if their dogs are aggressive in public spaces.
