    Quite! Too much can be almost as bad as not enough....

    Saw it in the news yesterday too. Gotta eat and help out a smal business, why not? The food'd better be decent though, publicity doesn't always help business.

    Its pretty good burger shop food, although I usually just go straight for the Saskatoon sundae.

    Yup love Marv's. total throw-back. Kids love the carbonated ice cream. We usually go for the works, burgers, malts, candy and container of ice cream to go.

    Lots of great candy in the store as well.

    Yeah........ because cheap eats to be had at your place is impossible to come by eh? lol.

    Okay, would everybody be good for a week day meet (as in next Friday) since weekends are likely a no-go at this point?

    No its a small restaurant. I think they have all of one cook/chef there at any one time, so I can respect him telling people to not come in hoards. Last time I was there with my parents, the cook was a super nice lady in her 40's, with health issues, so I can totally respect this warning.
    Its not fair to the customers, to be standing, waiting for a seat for eons, only to have seriously rushed food since the wait staff & cook cant possibly keep up.

    Hey, anyone who likes Marv's should find a way to stop by soon. This place is in danger of closing down again.
