The Livingstone, in the Plaza de la Libertad, states that children must remain with their parents 'at all times' and 'not separate themselves' from their adult companions, and must not play with toys 'except mobile phones or video game consoles', babies' nappies must be changed 'outside the toilets', and kids 'must not play' in the building.
Parents are instructed that children 'must walk, not run' inside the bar and that if kids 'cry, scream or create noise that could constitute a nuisance to other customers', their parents or guardians must 'remove the child from the premises until they cease to do so'.
A flood of furious comments on social media, however, meant the Livingstone has felt morally obliged to take the sign down.
“Thanks to you and your comments, we've realised we were in the wrong and will immediately remove the sign from our premises,” the Livingstone said on Twitter.
“We wish to apologise to anyone who may have felt offended.
“Children are always welcome – in fact, our manager has three small children and has had to take them off the premises several times to calm them down.”
Elsewhere, however, comments online have called it 'shameful' that the bar has been 'forced' to remove its sign, saying many bar customers in general would welcome 'not having to put up with noisy, badly-behaved children' and that many parents whose kids throw tantrums in public premises would normally take them outside as a matter of course so as not to disturb everyone else.
