Tony George Screws Restaurant Workers

Post by Bridget Conant »

How low can he go?

Crop Bistro, a Tony George eatery, closed and stiffed its employees out of their last paychecks.

How much is he making at his exclusive licensed marijuana dispensaries, two of them here in Lakewood.

in addition to his new marijuana business, Tony George owns the Hairy Buffalo in Lakewood, the above mentioned Crop, a restaurant in Columbus, and several others he had “invested“ in, like Town Hall on W 25th (with his son.) He owns 37 according to himself - see link below.

He was a major instigator in the push to block LGBTQ anti-discrimination legislation in Clevekand last year, threatening to close his restaurants in Cuyahoga County if it passed.

Due to social media outrage and a TV news reporter’s inquiries, Crop has now claimed employees will be paid for their hours worked sometime next week.

Interestingly, their post on social media claims that Tony George is no longer part of Crop.

I think he used that excuse before. :roll:
