Village Inn

So, uh, I don't think that True Food Kitchen is unique, and I think we have seen more of it in the last couple of years, um, given COVID am- among other liquidity issues.

Village Inn is another.

It's a long-standing diner chain in Florida, and I've noticed that a lot of franchisees have now filed bankruptcy in dealing with increased business expenses, and they're trying to pass on the costs As they all do to consumers, and given this particular environment economically, there's a lot going on in terms of gas prices and whatever.

And so if you're raising prices at restaurants, it may cause consumers to be less inclined to go out as much as they did in the past.

Where's that at? Like, where's the Long John's on Central and Ridge?

Right across from the Village Inn by Cimarron.

Bro, that hasn't been there in years, my guy.

There's still a Long John Silver's there.

So he was cramming in the studying, and then later on went to the campus to attend this meeting.

Now, after the meeting, a group of friends and Matt decided to head to a restaurant in town called The Village Inn.

They, you know, ate some dinner, had some dessert, kinda continued talking, socializing, and after a while, everyone was going to head home for the night.

But Matt didn't seem ready to go home yet.

No, not Pizza Ranch.

At Village Inn.

so we could have pie.

So we went there, and he brought family pictures.

Whether you're an alum or not, you can absolutely raise Razorback and bring them up here.

And then you stop in at Village Inn.

I know a lot of people want some Village Inn.

The Village Inn,

that's down there.

That's where everybody parks on the other side.

Village Inn is actually on College.

Oh, this is right over here.

I was on an appointment tear.

For what? And we landed Village Inn Restaurant.

At the time, we were doing hair salons.

We landed Fantastic Stamps Hair Salon.

And you were able to help them.

And then once we got the accounts that, that localized marketing thing, you know, location by location was really able to work well.

So if Denver had a shutdown, we could go to online orders for Village Inn.

If Tampa, It was an interesting time, but I guess that is one of the times it's like, wow, we made it.

eat?

My favorite place is Village Inn here in Derby because there's a lot of breakfast, and I love pancakes.

All right.

Well, that might answer the next question.

What's your favorite meal at the Village Inn?

Oh, yeah.

Pancakes, the skillet, breakfast skillet.
