It was too expensive for what it was. That building was much better off as a Krispy Kreme.

FYI: This what's being built in front of the parking lot on East Campus currently. My understanding is that it will indeed be period themed (40's/50's) and will be called "Doc's Diner" or something to that effect. It will be "authentic" diner fare with 100-150 seats. Since it's not a pre-fab building, it's technically not a diner, but that's the atmosphere and food you can expect.

How has it taken this long for that to get on here? I've known for a few weeks and just didn't think of putting it on here, figuring it already would be.

Same here. It just occurred to me that I should search for it this morning. We're all slacking lately. I blame your distracting "Liberty Couples" thread.

That's the best thing to distract FlameFans since Randy Dunton got fired.


What? Too far?

They were toying with the notion of a 50's style diner around Campus East. It would be open to the public with signage on the highway.
Yes "At the Hop" didn't bomb once, why not try it again.

You cant even begin to compare the two. First "At the Hop" had a HUGE price on it to rent which led to Krispy Kream leaving and "At the Hop" leaving. I heard a statistic from a local businessman that told me how many hamburgers they needed to sell a month to just break even it was a huge amount.

This will do really well, theres no doubt

And little ceasar's can afford it? I know it's pretty popular but I can't see a $5 pizza place being in a high rent building.

I agree and I've said that before. I've meant to find out why they can afford it but never got around to it. I now have a mission for today, I will post the results later.

Guess it depends on how many pizzas they're moving.
