Only without the tables, people, or any light emanating from within

I haven't been there during a non-event time. Is there a round-the-clock guard to make sure the bathrooms are used for their intended purpose?

The folks who run the race riot memorial park a couple blocks away have allowed that element to severely curtail enjoyment of their park for the rest of us, what with walls around the whole thing and it only being open a few hours a day.

I believe the bathrooms are locked after hours

How is Lucky's faring, does anyone know? I tried to go there Sunday evening at 7pm for a drink, but it was closed and lacked posted hours. I also saw someone else trying to patronize the place at the same time.

I can't find any hours online, either. Without signage or anything to draw people in, I'm not seeing how that place is going to survive on the many non-event nights, of which there are many now that we're entering the colder months.

I think they are trying to be too fancy IMHO. Throw out tables, sell hotdogs and beer 11-11.

It is kind of a odd juxtaposition. Fancy food ordered from a counter/kiosk.

Winterfest is moving to brady



From Tulsa World online about noon today:

Quote

Winterfest, presented by Arvest Bank and the Lobeck Taylor Family Foundation, will be at the BOK Center Nov. 23 to Jan. 6. The attraction includes a 9,000-square-foot outdoor skating rink, carriage rides, visits from “Segway Santa” and an indoor Holiday Market.

....

The Guthrie Green, 111 E. Brady St., will hold Glow on the Green Nov. 25, featuring live music from the Red Dirt Rangers, holiday treats from Lucky’s and the lighting of the park.

You mean "Francis Mallman's Beef Empanadas Chimichurri?"

How about the Lamb & Shrimp Burger, Rabbit & Pork Belly Bahn Mi or Fried Texas Quail?

Average entry price is $9. I don't consider chucking out $40-$50 to feed the family when ordering food from a kiosk at a park.

Surprising seeing as SMG's name is strangely absent from this year's winterfest sponsor list in the above flyer.

I actually would support if they moved the whole thing to the Brady District.  I'm not a big fan of its current location squeezed between the federal courthouse and the BOK Center.  Feels cramped and small and doesn't leave much room to expand.

Agreed.  I took my toddler son for lunch one day and we spent about $25 and there was nothing on the menu that was really palatable for him and he's not a picky eater.
