Protest planned at Arvada bistro after breast feeding controversy
DENVER (KDVR) — A nursing mothers' protest is planned outside of a popular Arvada bistro, in light of a recent breastfeeding controversy.
Melanie Kiernan said she was recently approached by staff at the Stone Cellar Bistro in Olde Town Arvada and told to stop breastfeeding her young son.

Kiernan said her family posted two different reviews of the experience, and the incident soon took off on social media.
The Arvada native said the bistro had been slow to apologize, until doing so earlier this week, on social media.
The owners have also expressed an interest in apologizing in person.
Saturday's protest, which Kiernan said she didn't organize, is slated to begin at 3 p.m.
