Default Time to return to normal happy hour.

It is so great to have the music back and 2/3 of the happy hour, ( beer and bad wine). It’s time to bring back the mixed drinks into the happy hour. Why is it not included? Based on the prices of liquor in the stores, price is not a factor. Can management be that cheap? Otherwise welcome back to all the outstanding musicians, who provide us with such a great evening.

Staff is the issue, beer can be in a glass in seconds. The special drink was pre made, but need to add garnish. The rest of the mixed drinks take several minutes, without staff, the line gets too long. Then you have people that were normally unhappy, become down right angry. So OP maybe you can recruit staff to get your happy hour drinks

I have spoken to the bar kiosk managers more than once about the exclusion of mixed drinks from the happy hour pricing. Been told that it's coming but doubting it now. The newer Villagers never knew they were ever 2 for 1.

The reason is, for now, you wait 10 minutes for a drink from 5 to 7:30 - plenty of demand. At least that is how it was last week in Brownwood and my one visit to LSL

They have enough drinkers who pay full price that they really don't need to offer an incentive to sell mixed drinks during happy hour.
