Happy Sunday........ get ready for a long one.
It’s been a minute since we’ve done one of these, so here’s a little behind-the-scenes on where things are at 👇
We’re officially 4 months into Craft Kitchen, and somehow… we’ve grown the page to 5,000+ followers, we have hundreds of reviews between Facebook and Google (mostly positive), which is honestly insane to us.
We’ve learned a TON. Changed a lot. Fixed a lot.
At this point, things are getting pretty dialed in.
The dust has settled enough that most days we’re not getting absolutely buried, and we’ve got ticket times sitting around 12 minutes max, even during busy service. That’s a huge win for us.
We’ve run a bunch of specials…
Some crushed, some were just alright, but that’s part of it.
We’ve also kind of built out a “secret menu”, stuff that’s not on the board, not on the menu… but if you know, you know. And that’s been pretty fun to watch grow.
We’re still looking to add a couple people, but we’re certainly being picky, we want the right fit, not just bodies.
You’ve probably noticed I’ve been a little quieter lately,
I’ve been down in Appleton running catering and getting ready to launch our permanent outdoor BBQ spot down here.
Meanwhile, Teddy and the crew have been absolutely crushing it in Green Bay.
Now we need your input 👇
1. Favorites:
Out of the specials we’ve dropped, what have been some of your favorites?
Mac Wrap, Tacos, The Mayor, The Mac and Cheese Burger, Banana Pudding Ice Cream, Nacho Jam, Smoked Fried Bologna… or something random we threw together one day?
2. Banana Pudding:
You liking the traditional or the ice cream version better?
3. Sundays:
Are you still interested in a Sunday service?
Thinking normal menu + 1–2 rotating brunch items.
4. Consistency check:
Be honest, is everything just as good as your first visit?
We care a LOT about that and need to hear it from you.
Seriously… thank you to everyone who comes in, whether it’s once a week or once a month.
You guys are the reason this thing keeps moving.
