The Lexington restaurant opened its doors for dinner for the first time in nearly two weeks after it gained national attention for refusing to serve White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders and asking her to leave.

Trump supporters flocked to the restaurant in protest after news broke, hoping to send the message that people need to “start showing a little respect for the President of the United States,” Grub Street reports.

From the pictures it looks like it couldn’t have more than about 10 tables.
How many will actually show up?..................wearing MAGA hats?...................
Book it up full for six months. Then don’t show.
Maybe it was booked by biker gangs who will only order coffee and one order of fries.
Someone should post a sign, ‘Jim Crow served here’
They are enjoying what Chic-Fil-A enjoyed. If it’s political, you will get the ones who agree with you to go out of their way to do business with you.
Now, this is only one small restaurant, so it wouldn’t take much. The whole thing was really symbolism. The chic-fil-a phenomenon was nationwide. Lets see the owner of McDonalds corporation kick out a Sarah and see how it goes for McDonalds.
To be expected. The libs are going there as a pilgrimage. But how long is that going to last? Not long, I bet. And conservatives have long memories.
Fully booked? - I think I recall from earlier stories it seats only about 25 people - hardly a banquet hall....
Their Mecca for about 3 months I bet.
Temporary support from libs and a lot of reservations either not kept or ordering a cup of coffee and sitting. Or...Soros paid? Did patrons arrive in a bus wreaking of beer and cigs?
One of the protest methods was to book and not show.
The media is aware of this and, I’m sure, spinning this as a positive to show libs are winning.
Frankly I think people should go in wearing MAGA hats and publicly shame the manager and workers for being bigots.
If that’s OK for Dems to do to government employees it’s perfectly fine to do it to Dems.
Show up by only order water and appetizers and eat reaaally slow.
I’m not familiar with that town. Is it a tourist town, historic town? Or would mostly locals patronize that place?
Fully booked is fully booked,no matter what the number.
.
Red Hen go Pluck Yourself.
It will not last long.
I believe that reopening night was filled up by a private party. I don’t think they were again open to the public yet.
There may be a lot of symbolic private parties there for a while, since this got national attention.
Some of the deluded will even liken it to Woodstock.
“Were you there? I was there, and it was wonderful, although I don’t remember many details.”
