I've been going here for many years. Actually since well before the new owner(s) came in and renamed it Stray Cat. For a long time, I really enjoyed the drink and dinner specials.
I've noticed the food service sliding down hill quickly this year. Earlier this year, I brought some of my visiting family to the business because the food and service had been so awesome to that point. For some reason, they had a useless cook working that day who burnt everything he sent out to us ... twice. The owner on site was so embarrassed after we showed him what was served, he offered us gift cards to cover our food. My family vowed never to return. I figured it was a fluke and was impressed that the owner acknowledged the problem and did something to address it.
In June, I went in on a Monday and ordered a basket of chicken wings. To my surprise, they were completely out of wings. I ended up going elsewhere to eat that night and sent Stray Cat a private message on their Facebook account letting them know what happened. A month to the day I received a response, "That was a busy weekend for us. We never want to let a loyal customer down. Hope you'll be back to 'Fix' your wing cravings soon."
In August, I went in on a Sunday and again ordered a basket of chicken wings. I was stunned because they again were completely out of wings. I sent a followup message to Stray Cat via Facebook letting them know of the pattern and advising they should speak with whomever is doing the product ordering. Their ENTIRE response:
"Maybe eat wings on Friday or Saturday when we're fully stocked"
WOW! I immediately went to the bar and requested to speak to the owner who had ironically "just left". I gave a printout of the messages sent back and forth to a server who knows me well, told her what happened and asked to have the owner contact me. No contact what so ever.
If this is how they treat a longtime patron now, imagine what this place is headed for. Save your money for a business that actually cares about the people bringing cash through the door.
That snarky message was it for me. I'm done.
