Manager Communication: It was a long and busy day today, with prep for menu change, meetings all morning and spoons tonight, but we are looking really good for tomorrow. Menus are changed behind the bars, all the new beer win and liquor is stocked behind bars, and cocktails are batched and ready to go. We have our draught cleaning in the morning and then we can hook up all the new lines.

BAR Staff Observations: Great crew tonight, they handled the long day well.

FOH Staff Observations: No runner support for drink running or the bars tonight. We were OK but it was a little disappointing, because Jeremy had told me earlier in the night that they had a drink runner for spoons, but when it came time for the rush he said they were all needed to run food.

Special Events? Spoons was tonight, everything was good. It sold a little over half the theater. The bar was pretty busy before the show for the pre-party.

Staff Meeting Agenda notes: We went over everything we needed to in the staff meeting today. The timing worked out well.

86ed / counts on items: We 86ed 2 of the specialty cocktails coming off the menu tonight, and made it down to less than a quart of each of the other three combined. We also 86ed all the beer coming off the menu, except the graft cider and the collective arts sour, we are low on both. There is very little leftover product on this change.

Prep List: We have at least a single batch of everything going in to the day tomorrow, but we will need Ryan to make some backups for the weekend once the bar is open.

R&D comp checks: I sent the tasting costs to Mascha. $ 50 wine, $ 25 beer, $ 40 liquor

Ordering/Receiving/Shipping: All menu change product is in. Just a couple beer deliveries tomorrow.

Manager Communication:  Another very busy day, with Th1/2/3/4 pretty well sold, or sold out, for multiple rounds.  Nonstop from the moment doors opened. JH Pretty much same here for the evening. Very busy up until the last round, and lots of business at Trees. - IP Customer Comments:  Some guests this afternoon had an issue with Miguel's service at Lobby, and spoke to me about it.  I sent an email summarizing their complaints and what happened to upper management, in case they reach out in the future. JH BAR Staff Observations:  Busy from the moment doors opened, with both bars navigating sold out theaters throughout the day.  Patrick was a big help with second round rushes and getting the first push of special event drinks out at Trees. JH Patrick and Darius had a good rapport in lobby tonight, which was really great to see. Jeshua and Bryan were excellent at Trees tonight for multiple sold out rounds and a pretty steady bar crowd all night. We had some gl...

Manager Communication: Matthew and Miguel came in ready to crush this brunch. The Wizard of Oz, Wonka, and Poor Things all had great drinking crowds. Kelsey came in at 11AM & swung up to support Trees. Once Tevon got in we knocked out plenty of batches and syrups. We were able to cut openers soon after. -AB The Coconut Lime Slushie side of the frozen machine continues to be an issue. I don't understand because it's in the same style machine in Lobby, on the same setting. What do we do? (crying emoji, crying emoji). -AB We ran out of the Piña Colada umbrellas today. I was having bartenders just put a cherry in there. -AB2 I also no longer have access to this blogger anymore so I'm typing here from Ashley's account. -AB2 Customer Comments: Not a specific customer, but I noticed this weekend a lot of N/A Spritzers were being rung in "not too sweet". In this instance, bartenders simply cut the recipe with a little club soda. I haven't seen any physically s...

Manager Communication: The soda gun at Trees Lounge is having issues with Diet Coke. It has moments of coming out with no syrup. There is syrup in the bag still so I think Coca cola should be contacted to have it checked out before it is a further issue. -LB Super busy Sunday chilled out for a chill evening. -LB Customer Comments: While helping out Josef in the lobby today I had an idea that might streamline his tendency to takeover the attention of the lobby bartender or floor manager (or anyone who stops to chat, haha). Since he usually calls in to get his tickets beforehand, we know when he's going to be coming in - since he ALWAYS asks what movies we have coming up, and if we will have x, y or z - maybe we can print out an easily readable piece of paper with the upcoming schedule (as we know it) that we can hand to him and tell him all the information is on the paper. I know it probably won't change anything at all, but rather than have him bug someone to pull up the sched...
