Joe Cool Cafe closing

I'd imagine installing a professional kitchen in a century-old building would have its own mess of issues to work through.

A purpose-built ADA compliant facility, designed to be adaptable for general foodservice, corporate and off-season events and so on, seems like a more efficient way to go.

I'm not surprised that it's closing. The one and only time our family went there (this season actually), the service was absolutely awful. I think even the waitress felt bad that it was so terrible, but it seemed like they were so short staffed and there was nothing she could do. When we were leaving, there was a guy complaining about the service and the person he was talking to acted like they could not care less about what he was saying, and I'm fairly certain he was talking to a "manager." You could hear people at every other table complaining to each other too.
Instead of eating there with the rest of the family, I actually walked up to get a frozen custard by Raptor, walked back to the restaurant, and sat outside and ate the massive cone, and the rest of my family still hadn't received their meals. I would like to see something unique with decent service replace it though.
