A huge thank you to all of our amazing customers for your continued support! ❤️

As we kick off another summer season, we want to express how grateful we are for everyone who chooses to spend their time with us.

Like many businesses, we faced a few staffing challenges throughout May, which unfortunately led to some longer wait times on occasion. We appreciate the patience, understanding, and kindness you’ve shown our team during those busy moments.

We’ve added some great new staff members and are excited about the season ahead. We expect things to continue improving as everyone settles into their roles, allowing us to provide the experience you deserve.

Thank you for supporting local, for bringing your families and friends to see us, and for being part of The 252 family. We can’t wait to spend the rest of the summer with you! ☀️🍔🍹🚤
