All I can say is WOW!!  A childs menu should be about portion size and NOT age of consumer.  I have been with many adults over the years that ordered off the childs menu and have never seen a place that wouldn't allow an adult to do so. NEVER! You just killed any chance of me making the trek of 45-50 minutes to come back and patronize your establishemnt.  You see, most of the time we go out to dinner is when I have the in-laws with us and many times my eldery mother-in-law will order off the childs menu because she can't eat 'adult' portions and doesn't enjoy leftovers from restaraunts.

That, boneheaded IMHO, rule was arbitrarily put in place by you and your husband, the owners, and therefore can be changed by you.  I think you hurt your business with that post. Especially considering the other posts in the thread. It took you off the consideration list for me when choosing a place for dinner and if I had never been there I certainly wouldn't start now.

There is on ald addage in any service business that repeat customers pay the bills and new customers pay you.  IMHO you just ran off some of both.  With an apparantly limited pool of qualified labor, food costs soaring, and a very seasonable business I wouldn't think you could afford to keep, misguieded at best, rules in place that limit your revenue. A $10 childs ticket is only half of a $20+ adult ticket true enough, but half of something is better than all of nothing.
