  1. Chalet could have been a success in that location if it had had consistent hours, consistent service, well-trained employees, and didn’t always seem to be out of certain menu items. I stopped going for all of these reasons.

    1. Lisa H. hit the nail on the head! We had so many hopes for this location, as it was in our old neighborhood, and my husband had served there as a firefighter in the past. However, we were disappointed at the disjointed menu and poor service.

    2. This will be a blessing for the neighborhood IMO.

      Maybe Martha Hoover will take it over and run another well oiled establishment that adds value to the neighborhood

  2. Ditto on Chalet, Lisa H., especially the running out of menu items. But the thing that stands out for me is Small Victories’ odd naming conventions. HEARTBREAK burgers??! Strange Bird? Certain Feelings Coffee? I’ll pass. Going forward, they should consider convening focus groups before rolling out a name. There’s an art to that.

  3. Paul and Neal, you’ve done some great things. Coat Check helped to transform the Athenaeum. I’ll be over to check out Strange Bird. Small Victories, hang in there!
