Manager Communication: Pretty chill open. Please be mindful when putting kegs on a charge. Sometimes they do not sit fully in and do not charge. When connecting new kegs, can we please connect one furthest from the wall/closest to you. When the keg that is connected is closest to the wall, it makes it the most difficult to change since you have to reach over all other kegs. - AB2 Customer Comments: Knibbs had some regulars from another bar come in. They were very nice. World Cup drew a bit of a crowd BAR Staff Observations: Matthew is the man. Knibbs and Tevon straight bodied a busy rush for the last round. We had softball peeps, World Cup fans, and a busy midtown (TH1/TH2) come in all at once and we handled that. Gabrielle did her thing solo in Lobby with help from Dwight. I am big proud of the crew tonight. - AB2 Sick Leave/ Call outs: Jeshua. Feel better mane. - AB2 Prep List: Gotta batch a Margarita Keg and Old Fashioned keg tomorrow. I have the kegs cleaned out and ready in the...

Manager Communication:  Wyatt and I opened the building. Nothing major. Busy night at Trees and in the theaters, but nothing ever went sideways.  Trees was pretty full up until last call, and was very busy between 7:30pm-10:00pm, which was great for a weeknight. JH BAR Staff Observations:  Everyone really did a great job today.  Greg has gotten really great working down in lobby solo, and has also gotten much better about asking for a break when he needs one.  He held it down all night and needed very little assistance, which was very helpful as Trees was so busy. Gabrielle set Trees up for success, and was a superstar and stuck around later than we had anticipated when Jeshua had to leave early due to vision issues (see Sick Leave/Call Outs ).  Even with the issue, Jeshua got Trees through a huge restock before he left, and Gabrielle and Natasha sailed through the next few hours.  Gabrielle got out of here shortly after ten, and Natasha handily finsis...

It appears that somebody published this blog a little bit earlier.  I wasn't done with my notes, so this is the updated, complete version. JH Manager Communication:  I think we should redo the merch cabinet to draw eyes over there. I am happy to do it with someone.-LB I cleaned all the frozen machines at Trees, I did not get to the bubblers. Will see if Jenn can do them closing. Gus is gonna hit lobby tomorrow.-LB  Easygoing Wednesday night compared to the last few weeks, and Trees had a decent amount of small groups throughout the day.  We were unable to clean the bubblers this evening, but I'm sure we can get to it tomorrow with two closers at Trees. JH   BAR Staff Observations:   Matthew is giving up his shift to Natasha tomorrow, she will arrive at 7pm which is fine since Jeshua is also working since there is the USA game at 10pm and the drag show.-LB  Gabrielle was able to get out of here shortly after 8:30pm, with the second round winding down an...

So We will use up the Perfect puree we have them back to Boiron.-LB Customer Comments: Trivia was excellent tonight. It was a heavy World Cup crowd that went right into trivia. We love to see it.

Manager Communication:  There was a syringe in the men's room bathroom in lobby this morning. Ryan told me and I removed it with gloves. Tevon said "New York is back."-LB I pulled the Irish Coffee fancy mugs and boxed them for storage until winter. We have a lot of mugs and could use the room for summer use glassware.-LB BAR Staff Observations:  Was able to get Tevon out of here after both bars got a restock after the second round settled.  Patrick held down Trees, only needing me to help out at the service pass around 8:30pm when the last round of Th2 was in their initial service push.  Lydia sailed through their lobby shift and was able to get out of here shortly after I routed the first floor at 10:30pm. JH FOH Staff Observations:  Just wanted to shout out Jovani.  We weren't slammed at Trees, but we definitely did get busy.  She is always so quick to either step in and run trays for theaters other than her own, and if I ever need any help or someon...

Sunday 6.21.2026 Ian / Lauren

Manager Communication: Wyatt and I opened up the building, got prepared for the flood of all-ages crowds. - IP Theaters were very busy but Trees was quiet all day. Hopefully we can get the openers out of here nice and early. - IP Trees picked up in the afternoon as it does on Sunday. Nice vibes.-LB One of the Trees napkin/straw holders broke. If anyone knows where it was sourced could not find replacement on Webstaurant. Will take one from Lobby bar for now. I brought down one of the Grey goose napkin holders from Trees.-LB I made a little frame with the special for the Gansett and the world cup so we can sell them.-LB Rebecca, the batch list for Tevon is on the white board. -LB Customer Comments:   BAR Staff Observations: Matt and Tevon opened up and we got Danny coming in before things start popping off. - IP The Sunday crew is really gelling. Love having Darius on the ground floor. Duan had really settled in to knowing Nitehawk's groove. Danny feels like he has been here ...

Manager Communication: It may be time to post the bathrooms for customers only on the doors again with all the BRIC and park action now. Also, maybe a second soap dispenser in the lobby ladies so that if one is empty.-LB Customer Comments:  BAR Staff Observations: It was Duan's first time doing a Lobby brunch open since training, so myself and Matthew made sure to check in with him before doors about anything he felt unsure on.  I told him to call me for any questions ir issues, but he honestly sailed through the first two rounds solo with only one or two walkie calls.  Really held it down solo. Matthew opened Trees well stocked, and gave me a list of what he would like behind the bar once I caught up on batching.  After Tevon got in and they got through the bulk of the second round, Matthew went and did a big restock to get Trees prepped for the later rounds. JH Got Matthew and Duan out of here just after 4:45pm/5pm Great teamwork today.  Business at Trees but ...
