I had a chance to make my 1st visit to Timbers/CR pub this past weekend and first and foremost want to commend on how wonderful LP looks and well it skied on Sunday.
My first comment in terms of Timbers is to resonate the sentiment of others that it is probably to early to judge the operations/service at Timbers. As a long time friend of a person who own and operates 2 restuarants in Beantown there is the expectations of experiencing the "growing pains" in the course of the 1st couple of months.
Albeit I was dispaponied in the service and staffing levels at both CR Pub & Timbers, I would also like to agree that the staff kept their chins up and were VERY pleasant.
Here is one casual oberservance I witnessed not only Sunday but as a 8yr vet of SB and loyal apres customer of the old Wonderbar...the staff needs to learn how to multi task. It seems that the wait service can only handle one customer/order/table at a time. I saw a lot of "standing around" the cash register at Timbers on Sunday. I think one kid didn't move for five minutes and the 2nd bartender "disappeared" during the critical rush as disgruntled CR Pub customers came over to Timbers.
"Yes" boot wearing in Timbers WILL be a problem...a friend of mine took a digger!
Personally I would vote for "no boots' in Timbers but if you need to keep it available for CR Pub overflow then so be it.
My last comment/recommendation is this...NO family camping out in the CR Pub! Someone brought cooler in and camped out there all day long.
Overall...very pleased. (See I am not so Angry after all!)
