Meh, half their customers probably don’t even look up from their phones.

Just know the menu and be quick with the drinks & food.

No idea if this is a TX / FL thing but we have a house on the TX coast. STRs create a large amount of tax revenue, seasonal demand for businesses and jobs for the local economy...trades, cleaning, etc. The town embraces STRs. as does the small community of year-round residents. It's a very sleepy place in the offseason.

Confession time- I've never been to Cane's. Only eaten it once when my SIL showed up at a gathering with a giant box (aluminum IIRC). Very meh.

There's a Cane's near where I work that's usually a ghost town while Chick fil A down the street has double drive thru lanes mobbed all day.

You LA baws don't have access but Chicken Express is really good and they have spicy.

If there’s a Springboks rugby match in town it’s a fun time. Very much like telling people they need to catch a night game in Death Valley. S Africans go nuts and are very helpful explaining it.

Best friend is in ICU at the moment. Pancreatitis led to kidney problems and sepsis snuck in. He's been intubated for almost a week in a medically induced coma. Previously healthy guy in his mid-50s. fricking unbelievable.
