Saturday 01.28 Jenn/Edgar



Manager Communication: Very busy first round in Th1 & 2, which was a great start to the day.  There was definitely a bit of a lull in the second round, but things ramped back up in time for the dinner rounds. JH

Dinner was steady all around with foot traffic in both the lobby and Trees. Both bars ran very tightly and smoothly. EA

Customer Comments: We had a second walk in birthday party come in and set up shop, confounding things for a bit as I was trying to figure out where the scheduled event actually was. They hung out in trees eating and drinking for a while too. EA

BAR Staff Observations: Andrea and Lee opened both bars without issue this morning, and were ready to dive right into service once doors opened.  Andrea really is great at crushing those well-sold weekend screenings in Th1 & 2, and is really great about communicating any needs she may have during service.  

Once both Chelsea and Matthew arrived, I was able to cut Lee, as sales were pretty mellow until the dinner round.  Lee was a bit upset to have been cut, but I told him that since he is working a mid shift tomorrow, I would ask Edgar to not cut him first tomorrow. JH

Solid work from everyone today. Everything worked seamlessly between lobby and Trees. Chelsea was out a decent time and Matthew really kept the show running at Trees working between Gabrielle and Ian. After everyone was situated, Matthew was able to stock and leave followed by Gabrielle a little later. EA

FOH Staff Observations: Openers in Th1 crushed a nearly-sold out NeverEnding Story. JH

Special Events? Emily Miller - Birthday party at Trees Mezz. The crew showed up around 930 and set up their little zone upstairs. All tabs were rung in under Trees Private and it turned out to be more like 10 people. They were great and were very understanding about no open flames as they almost lit a bunch of candles on their cupcakes. 

Just for clarification, it is a hard no for any open flames period, correct? They weren't aware of it and it might be great to note on future memos with guests ahead of time so there isn't a misunderstanding.  EA

Staff Meeting Agenda notes:

86ed / counts on items: We are out of Pinot Grigio. EA

Prep List: We will need to make an Old Fashioned keg when Rittenhouse arrives, but we have enough Rittenhouse in-house to make an half keg of we need to.  Additionally, we need back up kegs of Coffee & Cigarettes and Spice Spice Baby, but we should be set for the rest of the weekend. JH

Made a back up of Coffee and Cigarettes (It needs to be charged), but held off on the Spice, Spice, baby since we were limited on Tinedo and we were selling more by the glass than in the cocktail. EA 


Pay Outs: $150.00 (Ariel & DJ) JH

Maintenance: We got new wheels for the handtruck. They are in my mailbox and are ready to be installed whenever it is most convenient. EA

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...
