Do you ever have one of those day? Those days that test your patience as well as your physical strength? Well, we all had one at the same time today at the diner....
My brother in law was fighting what looks to be a cold, our daughter had a case of 13 year old attitude, our son has been asking to train more on the POS system and I arrived with a lovely headache that required a healthy dose of Ibuprofen! Luckily Keith was in fine form but no match for over 150 orders of eggs!!!!Wait times turned ugly and we hunkered down to get the best meals out in a reasonable amount of time. Most of our customers were happy to see the crowds, but still others were just plain hungry.
After the Broncos game was over,  we came up with a plan for future Sundays that will ensure more timely service without deterioration of product. Thank you to all our wonderful customers who came in to see us today, we appreciate your business and today....we really appreciated your patience!

What an exciting time here at the diner! Along with celebrating Keith's birthday along comes our two grandmas and our daughter! Watch out....these Virgos are in charge!!
Our new app will come live here on IPhones in about 2 weeks, they are live on Android today. Customers/Friends will be able to order their Mac's Place favorites and pay for it with paypal! We are looking forward to offering this as it makes your wait time considerably less. We will be offering a few incentives with the app so be on the lookout for those announcements!

Whose cookin today? Well, its the birthday boy, Keith. Long before this became a national day of mourning, it was simply known as Dad's birthday....he turns 55 today and to quote him, "he has LOMS"....its commonly called Little Old Man Syndrome.
I like to think of him as being "Vintage".
So much happening in the diner these days....catering is taking off and we are sending out lots of proposals. We are also extremely pleased with being able to offer our customers a taste of the local musicians....
Many of you already know this, but I grew up just north of Nashville, Tenn. You couldn't swing a dead cat for hitting a budding Opry singer! From the Texas tunes of The Prairie Scholars to the soulful aspirings of Denny Driscoll and Nick O'Conner....we've been honored to include them on our guest list. Next up in our little diner is Denny Driscoll (9.13.14)and the following week, Defunkt Railroad (9.20.14).
Our diner family continues to grow and even though we have the first confirmed case of LOMS, we are blessed beyond measure.

Well, we aren't exactly cookin this one up! But Darrell Ritchie and his App making team are!!! Yes, you heard/read me right! Mac's Place will have its very own App soon. Perhaps as soon as this weekend you will be able to get push notifications of our lunch specials and see who is playing on the Patio.
Now, some of you know my husband is technologically handicapped.....he never understood why we had to go past the rotary dial telephone! So developing an App for our diner is a feat indeed! Folks who download the app will be able to order straight from their phone and come by to pick it up! Imagine, our sweet cream pancakes just waiting for ya!
With the app you will also be able to see who is "around us".....like if you need a beer? Go over to our friends at Fox Creek Liquors. Need your jewelry repaired or cleaned??? Go next door to see Joe at The Gold Market.
Exciting times over here at Mac's Place.
