Does it mean you have to be IN there by that time, or OUT of there by that time? _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:
As a part owner of a restaurant, I keep the lights on if customers are still eating. I'm pretty cool about them staying after hours but if they're chilling out just chatting an hour after we're officially closed, I might give them a hint that I gots to go... While rare, some people are just inconsiderate...I have a life to get home to too. _________________ KOBE
#4 does not make sense, where did you get the "30 minutes" from?
Why not 60 minutes? Or 15 minutes? Or 20? or 43-1/2? _________________ “Always remember... Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots.”

from my experience, at a chain place it means you need to be seated by closing. The hours already take into consideration there could be diners still putting in orders past closing time but it wont keep the kitchen staff from being upset (the movie Waiting immediately comes to mind).
Because of this I try not to visit a sit down restaurant any later than 30min before closing. _________________ (bleep) Kawhi

Most places cut off the senior discount early.
You're well versed on things senior. I'll ask for your advice in the future. What home are you residing in? Who's keeping you abreast of our entitlements? _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Let me guess: CC, under a tight time budget for finals, schedules a very late dinner after hours of study. When he arrives, prior to the posted closing time, he is refused service.

100 hundred percent. CC only makes these ridiculous threads when something happened to him and he's looking for validation that he is in the right.
What grown adult asks what closing time means? Isn't it obvious what it means? It means it's time for you to go out go out into the world. Turn the lights up over every boy and every girl, CC. One last call for alcohol so finish your whiskey or beer. And, remember: every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.
Hey, if the restaurant say "ALL YOU CAN EAT," I'm staying until I'm done. I give a (bleep) what staff say. "ALL YOU CAN EAT," son! _________________ (❍ᴥ❍ʋ) ʕʘᴥʘʔ (⌐ ͡■ ͜ʖ ͡■) (┛◉Д◉)┛( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ༼;´༎ຶ ༎ຶ༽

Why do you think he's asking about restaurant closing times? He wants to know what time he gets off work... _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” ― Elie Wiesel

And yet you look down on waiters, waitresses, and restaurant managers? _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:
