Default Nancy Lopez is gasping for air

We dropped byNancy Lopez and wanted to have a few cocktails prior to eating

Well, the bar person, gave us a song and dance why they were out of THREE high end vodkas-- we left

Mgt lost hemingways and I fear they are going to lose Lopez

IMHO-they must be on a cash basis, with their vendors. otherwise they would not run out of some of their signature bar stock

I’m glad they allow establishments to remain in TV even though they don’t meet your standards, CB. This would be a very empty place.

There probably is not a high demand for the vodka you are requesting.

No surprise! TV is for fixed income folks, not those on an expense account!

When I go to Lopez, I want a high end drink, too. That's what they are known for. They make the best maple pecan old fashioned I have ever had and being from Wisconsin I have had my share of old fashioneds! The last two times we visited Lopez to show friends a nice time, they didn't have the ingredients to make some of their signature higher end drinks.

I am out, too... I will now have to settle for Kessler and Lemonade at Gators LSL!

Hmmmm, played 18 at Lopez in November and then went in for drinks and eats and enjoyed it? Nice place, looking forward to going back. Disclaimer is that I had the best round of golf in 2017 that day. They could have served me Sh /$ on a shingle and a flat beer and I would have loved it! LOL

Wow, a place didn't have favorite drink and it's going down hill. I guess if you get drunk enough the food tastes glorious!

Out of Grey Goose, Chopin & Belvedere--the bar person said their purveyor went out of business-no cash to go to ABC & buy a few bottles?

Cash basis? Maybe, but maybe not. Could be they just don’t have much call for those, but we really don’t know either way do we.

If you knew diddly about the bar business, you would know that they are not allowed to run to the store and buy liquor to sell.

This provides an excellent opportunity for people to switch to pop.
