I did bookkeeping for a bar/restaurant on Cape Cod in the late 90's.
Their biggest nightmare was buses of "senior citizens" showing up with their "Early Bird" coupons and no tips, or families with the little princes and princesses who couldn't make up their mind whether they wanted the chicken fingers or not and then pretty much stiffing the waiters and waitresses.
The profit is in the booze, and if you're catering to the elderly and the "children", good luck.
Exactly. And if this guy really loves little children with 50 cents in their pockets and the elderly, on fixed incomes, gee whiz, he must be a rich guy just doing the neighborhood a favor by staying open. You think?
