Karen’s Diner staff are well-known for being deliberately rude and impatient – but one man felt they’d crossed the line when they made a joke about his bald head.
In a TikTok posted by Bec Hadrgrave, the clip – viewed more than 2.5 million times – shows a man angrily confronting a member of staff at the Brisbane chain.
One of the restaurant’s rules is that body shaming, sexist, racist or homophobic jokes are not allowed – hence the man taking offence over the bald joke.
Watch this Karen’s Diner waiter’s reaction to being asked for a menu…
“I know they get paid to be mean to you but it was a little too hectic. They were making offensive comments about people’s appearances and they told my friend she needed to brush her hair. How mean is that?
“They told my other friend that she’s too old and they threw cups at us.

“They told my other friend that she’s too old and they threw cups at us.
“They got this group of older ladies to leave, like stand up and leave. They said to leave over the mic and they had an alarm blaring and the ladies actually got up and left, I’m not sure if they paid or not.
“The food was OK but get this, they told this guy he had a receding hairline and this is what he did…”
@bechardgrave The guy at the end was sooo out of line! #karensdiner #restaurantreview #brisbane ♬ Sensual Seduction – Snoop Dogg

He’s heard screaming: “That’s the one thing your f***ing sign says, no body shaming,” while gesturing towards the sign.
