We’ve had a number of experiences that have been a little funky (small retail too). I think, as long as they can communicate there is a delay and be nice about it, everyone is prepared to grant the necessary slack. It’s when the communication breaks down that it becomes not ok and very stressful, especially in a small space. BTW, the mixed drinks to-go at The State Theatre in Falls Church are really good, well-packaged, and very reasonable! Not how I thought I’d be supporting local music but we are where we are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibbee Nayee Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Parking and seating has always been my problem with this venue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go early for dinner (at Thompson's Italian?), there's a parking lot right behind there that holds maybe a hundred cars. There used to be an Applebee's near there, but I don't even know if that's still open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevem Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 The Applebee’s is closed, and redevelopment will be starting before too long. FWIW there is free parking on weekends/evenings in the Kaiser lot, and the City has agreed to preserve some additional parking during construction for the State/Thompson’s/Clare and Dons. Also, The State is open now for dinner/outdoor free music several nights a week. The set-up is well done and it’s a nice place to find yourself.

Damn -- I'm so old that I used to hang out at Mountain Jack's (the predecessor to Applebees). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standard american fare, good happy hour appetizers. Certainly better food than crapplebees! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
