Got denied entry to Doha

So basically I was flying back to LHR and had a connection of 7 hours in Doha... Mrs wanted to go outside the airport for dinner and we went towards arrivals only to be told by immigration to head back up if I just wanted to have 'dinner'... my fault here was to answer his question truthfully which was how long will I be staying in Doha which was about a couple of hours.

I felt like he was unnecessarily showing his authority and I could've easily just gone to a different immigration officer 5mins later but just couldnt believe this whole situation and went back to the lounge. I thought Qatar wanted to get more people spending money with the whole visa free launch but oh well

FYI: British passport holder
