Customers have slammed the owners of a Vegan restaurant for letting their children run around naked.

Earlier this week, a customer wrote a review for Imagine Vegan Cafe in Memphis, Tennessee, mentioning a nude baby running amok in the dining area and defecating on the floor.

In response, owners Adam and Kristie Jeffrey then posted a series of angry responses on their Facebook page defending the youngsters' behavior, before deleting the account entirely.

And after the customer posted the review, the store owners - Adam and Kristie Jeffrey - then posted a series of angry responses on their Facebook page, before deleting the account entirely

According to their website , Imagine Vegan Cafe is 'a family owned and operated' establishment 'specializing in real food for real people'

'During my visit, a bare butt naked baby was running around, stood up on a table with its black theyre (sic) so dirty feet, and bent over to show me it's butthole,' said Chelsea Bartley on Google Plus.

Chelsea questioned whether the child belonged to the owners and then noted that another child was acting peculiar.

'An older kid came over and started like yodeling and staring at me during my meal. I was SO uncomfortable,' she added.

A Twitter user took screenshot's of the cafe's response which immediately was hostile, saying that what the woman said was a 'lie'

'I am about to start calling out names and pictures of people who leave us bad reviews, especially when it deals with our children,' the owners wrote in the post since deleted on their Facebook page. 'You will no longer be allowed to come and dine at Imagine. Especially when you lie about our babies

The post continues to say that 'you've throughly irritated mama bear!!!' and then names Chelsea Bartley as the person who wrote the review in question.

The cafe added: 'These are my children she is talking about. She's complaining about our five-year-old coming over and talking to her, and our 21 month old. 'I understand your point, but if you are uncomfortable with a naked baby then do not come to our restaurant. Periodically she will not have a diaper on and that is life'

But the damage was already done as many took to the Google review site to voice their disdain with the owner's bullying treatment of the customers.

'Poor food coupled with butthole owners, pun intended,' shared Haley Hobert.

'It's not right for a restaurant to publicly shame a customer, especially when her comments are justified.

'Owners shouldn't be allowed to persecute and publicly shame against what they think is a poor review.'

'Poor food coupled with butthole owners, pun intended,' shared Haley Hobert on a Google review calling out the restaurant for its practices

Another user, Dee Shelton, couldn't believe that an owner would act like that. 'The owner needs to hire a PR person instead of insulting people who give them less than perfect reviews,' they said

Amanda B, however, loved the idea of children being inside the store. She said: Here, unlike most cafes, you are allowed to sit back, relax, and have a delicious meal among friends, knowing that your children are allowed to be themselves'

Owners Adam and Kristie Jeffrey have remained defiant against the negative posts

'The owner needs to hire a PR person instead of insulting people who give them less than perfect reviews,' they said.

'Part of business ownership is that everyone will not always be pleased and ownership needs to step up and be more mature to understand that and come with a solution.'

'Our children were able to have fun in the play room, and all of the other patrons were welcoming and just as kind as the owners.'

On Twitter, people were disgusted that the owner's were so rude and in their minds nasty.

''Imagine' how much better things would have been if the restaurant owners had just turned the other cheek. #buttholegate,' said one user, deeming the ordeal #buttholegate.

Lee Bolton said: 'Lmao they seem like down-to-earth people'

And another user, Rachel Millman, shared another post from a Karen Long that described what happened when she went to eat at the restaurant and the baby took a load there and said: 'Holy f***.'
