Rent out 2/3 of your restaurant for some Mommy-Son Date night and tell the rest of the paying customers to sit in the corner. If the event is that special, just shut down the whole dining room and keep the drive-thru open. It'll save your otherwise pleasant employees the unpleasant task of having to repeatedly reroute the peasants that had no clue it was a special occasion.

Seriously? Not sitting where you wanted is thread-worthy?

"Is it really necessary to shut down the whole dining room for a few soccer Moms and their sons?"

- Fonzie Scheme if the dining room would have been shut down.

Yes. Yes it is. Isn't this board basically one big useless Nextdoor?

I'll be sure and text you next time before I post to see if it meets your standards. Post your number.

Hardly. Would've hit the drive-thru and gone home. Kids would've had to live with disappointment, but would've gotten over it quickly.

What if all your children are girls? Sounds unfair.

Daddy - Daughter Dances, Dunce.

Edit: I meant to put a winky face on this.

So you're saying a business shouldn't be able to decide what to do with their own space? Did the peasants have to eat in the bathroom or something?

They've been doing this for a decade or longer and advertising it for probably a month. Sorry you didn't know but this isn't exactly new. And like you pointed out at least they kept a few tables open for those not participating. This event has been popular to the point where they take reservations so I'm thinking that filling up the entire restaurant would not have been hard yet they didn't so that other people could dine in too. What does that mean? It means they likely turned away reservations, guaranteed revenue, on the off change you MIGHT come. What do they get in response? This thread.

Note to self: BCS takes their chicken strips seriously.

Addendum to note to self: begin inquiry and research into an eight lane drive-through-only chicken strip concept restaurant. Working title: Chicken Run

Ever notice that Daddy-Daughter dances are organized by moms? If Dads organized such things, they'd be called "Daddy-Daughter hunting trips".

I would rather sit in a corner on the floor even at CFA and see all those Mommy's and Son's spending quality time together than to go sit in any restaurant and see nothing but the whole table with their faces stuck to their phones not even realizing they are sitting at a table full of other people, most especially their family. It breaks my heart to see this. When we go out to family dinner, all phones are silenced, kept in pockets or purses or left in the car. No exceptions. I am not going to spend all that money on a nice dinner for something we can do at home for free with a fried bologna sandwich.

In your typical alarmist fashion. This board never fails to deliver on the faux outrage one way or another.

In today's climate, I wonder how long before someone demands the owner to be replaced and all Chick Fil A owners have to offer a submittal of acceptance that in the future they will no longer plan an activity, no matter how wholesome of an idea it is, during normal business hours in hopes of never offending anyone in the future of their chicken strip dining experiences.

It wasn't us, but I swear I saw a mountain lion cross the tracks at Wellborn and Rock Prairie this morning. Keep your chicken strips, small children and pets inside.

Might need more than 8 lanes if THAT was drive-thru only.
