The Optimist Raleigh

Hi Luis,We’re so sorry about the seating situation. It’s an interesting problem to have. We have a pretty strong policy of being welcoming and inviting and while it might be frustrating we wouldn’t ever impose a policy that makes people leave, or cut off WiFi in order to make room. I’ve never been a huge fan of the churn and burn to make more revenue thing. Although we might not have a lot of free seating available, we do understand that having a safe comfortable space with zero pressure is really valuable in itself. I hear you though Luis and I’ll work on a solution or compromise. This definitely doesn’t fall on deaf ears. Please send me an email, I’d love to take care of a drink for you and your wife. I don’t take your support lightly. We are so grateful to you for choosing us over and over, even though it’s frustrating at times. I really do empathize. My email is [email protected] (owner)
