Tuesday 02.04.25 Gus/Jenn/Ian



Manager Communication:
Jenn, Gus and I went over our gameplan for the Bar staff meeting on Thursday. Looking forward to it! Jenn got us all prepared for Trivia, and James and Jared were aces on the floor. Night went very smoothly. - IP

BAR Staff Observations: 
Patrick did a nice open. Found that a lot of the glassware was kind of nasty.

This must be related to Ariel's note about the lack of hot hot water at the end of the night. Going forward, let's try to pay a little closer attention to the state of the glassware as it's being put away - if we need to rewash the glassware it's easier to do that the next day rather than have to find and rerack all of the dirty glassware like Patrick had to today. - IP

FOH Staff Observations:
Dang, maybe a little less garlic in the meatballs next time? Staff meal got me all kinds of blegh tonight. - IP

Special Events?
Trivia was chock-a-block full, as per usual. Bryan is really great on the floor, and Patrick did a lovely job behind the bar for his first(?) trivia. Tevon was a stalwart as always. Got started a little late because it was so packed I needed to print more answer and picture round sheets right before they kicked off. - IP

Prep List:
Aside from Trivia tonight it was pretty sleepy and we didn't go through a ton of product. I'll see where we're at tomorrow and batch accordingly, but at last glance, probs a Negroni Keg, more Cherry Limeade, another OF Keg, and possibly more Positively 4th Street. - IP

Pay Outs:
$18.00 - 5200 Food
$44.17 - 5200 Food 
-IP

Ordering/Receiving/Shipping: 
US Foods arriving tomorrow. JH
Union arriving tomorrow

Maintenance:
When resetting from Trivia tonight, I noticed the legs on some of the black plastic chairs are rather loose. I can add it to my list for tomorrow after I'm done with the frozen machines/bubbler. - IP

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...
