Good times, and free grape ape drink. Too bad the server sucked.

What is all in a grape ape drink? They weren't THAT bad IMO.

I believe it's Absolut Citron, Triple Sec, and grape Kool-Aid. I've had them before at other bars, not a bad drink.

Why does OC have grape Kool-Aid around? No clue.

I blame Mark. He's ruined everything else... Applebee's and now OC.

Re: Old Chicago - every Tues @ 8pm in Plymouth

I sent OC an email explaining our frustrations and asked to be contacted by store management regarding them. We'll see what happens...

If this doesn't go well maybe its time for change. Matt suggested JJ's Clubhouse on 394 which never seems very crowded and has good food/beer at cheap prices.

no I'm just not a not a whiny person I guess. Am I saying it was good service. No, but I'm not going to boycott the place, your going to get bad service once in awhile everywhere you go.

Yeah, I agree. I'm not gonna cry over poor service a few times.

I say we see what happens when regional gets back to us, and then go from there.

I know what you saying..I just don't think its about being whiny..its about standing up and showing what bad service will get you...less customers..I for one don't wanna spend my money at a place where I always get bad or mediocre service, we have been going there for long enough for them to know what day and time we are there to be prepared. but that just my opinion and I understand yours. not to mention there food is not the greatest. In the end I will go where ever we decided because all in all its abut the company and the good times!

+1. Couldn't have put that better myself.

While I like OC, regardless of the fact that service hasn't been great as of late, it's not about the location, and it never should be about the location. The meets are about getting together and having a good time, and if OC doesn't want to show us a good time on their behalf, then we can move elsewhere. But I also agree that it's too early to up and change things because they've shown us a couple weeks of bad service.

Now I brought this up to Hughes as we were leaving, but I know there were people who didn't tip this past time due to the service. Well, the issue there is that if we don't tip well, we'll get shittier service the next time, and it just starts a downward spiral of shitty experiences all around, for both us, and the servers. I know for a fact, from working in food service myself, that you make a point to not give a fuck about people who you know don't tip, or don't tip well.

They obviously knew they weren't doing a very good job, and even apologized for it by giving us free drinks. I realize this was before the real issue that we're arguing here, but honestly, they're trying. And it's apparent, and it's also something to be considered.

it was not that bad people need to know it was the start of the oct fest tour. we have for the most part have good service. you will have a few bad times any were we go in the end unless it just a full out bar and that will take away from some of the guys that go to it in the end
