We've tried almost all of them and we have a lot to say about them. Also, what do bartenders do when it happens to be a slow shift? IYKYK.... order dinner... deep cleaning project... phase someone... They're all sure to get the place filled to the gills! Chris and Ashley dive deep and talk in circles when it comes to drumming up business.
