As does the locally owned coffee shop (which makes me sad - cause it's such an awesome place).<br /><br />The other's however, (the "bigger" restaurants) are open later. Many people in Beaver commute to Pittsburgh, so they are home later. <br /><br />We've not had this problem at the other restaurants in town - just this one.<br /><br />Our first experience was actually on a Saturday night - peak night, our second was Tuesday night-which was also kids eat for $.99 night-so we've heard - they didn't tell us this.<br /><br />We've come to the conclusion that they just have some hic-cups in the dining room mangagement department.Jolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14170784412265396675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3177294628566001645.post-51653882648671762542009-07-09T14:09:43.540-04:002009-07-09T14:09:43.540-04:00I can't comment on the follow-up post, but I w...I can't comment on the follow-up post, but I wanted to suggest dining earlier possibly. 7pm is peak dining out hours in big cities like Chicago and Atlanta, in my experience, b/c the commutes mean people don't get home until 6:30 or so. In my small, small hometown, peak dinner hour is 5-5:30 pm. Restaurants are next to empty by 7pm. Also, I think it's more difficult for small places to keep stock--less frequent deliveries, harder to judge number of diners, etc.Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16603240691240455045noreply@blogger.com
