Ghost Runners Brewery question…
I had a friend in town last week and we thought we’d go check it out for trivia night. There’s an old trope of the record player scratching when you go into certain establishments that might have a regular crowd when some non regulars walk in. Obviously, that didn’t happen but the general vibe felt like that. There were lots of open tables, open reservation slots online but we were treated like we just got the hottest table at Dorsia on finance bro night. The waitress walked by a few times without looking at us, there was a loud old guy standing at the edge of the bar who was either the owner or a guy who goes there enough he’s begun to feel like he owns the place. I’m not sure. We figured out it was an order by phone situation and just felt like the whole vibe sucked and we left and went elsewhere.
The place seems odd, but I’m not above giving it another shot. I looked at some reviews online and saw similar experiences and folks who seem to love the place. Just curious if I’m robbing my family and friends of a great spot by writing this place off?
