Bikes absolutely are good for business in some situations for us. Our overall delivery times are 3-5 minutes faster at our Downtown location than our car based stores. I think we're going to go with both bike and car delivery here while highly recommending the bike drivers have car access. If TU gets enough deliveries from us we could just concentrate on bike delivery there. We'll see how it goes.
I'm sure you know, but if you're delivering to TU (dorms, buildings, offices, etc), bikes are pretty much required. Visitor parking is virtually non-existent, and there are are only one or two main car-sized paths across campus.

My main concern is how bike unfriendly 11th Street is. Delaware has a bike lane, but it essentially a bike lane to nowhere. I sent an email to the city council about adding a bike lane to 11th but got no response. Wishful thinking on my part.

Nice touch last night handing out free sandwiches to fans leaving the TU v. Memphis game.  With the 6 start time, a lot of folks did not have time to eat before the game.

Jimmy John's in St. Louis did the same thing outside the ScottTrade Center after one of the Blues games.  I thought that was neat also.  Might have had something to do with it being St. Patty's Day that weekend, but was much appreciated as hammered as I was leaving.  Too much Bud Platinum (gave me a headache later).

Awesome to hear you got a sample. It looks like TU is having a pretty good year!

Grabbed a sandwich at the TU shop on Saturday.  I also got a sample at the TU basketball game.  I heard they were also passing out samples at the bars along 11th Street Saturday night.  The space turned out perfect for you guys.  Any word on the space next to Jimmy Johns?

No word yet. I'm personally hoping for a bar/pub, but any active retail will do.

The place has almost always been a pub with decent traffic. They always seem to disappear around lease renewal time.  You'd think they could make a killing off of students and game day crowds, if not just drawing as a neighborhood pub.

The bars at the Campbell Hotel seem to do ok.

A  bar would certainly go well with Jimmy John's next door Smiley

JJ has been an awesome addition so far. It is nice to think "I want a tasty sandwich at my door in 5 minutes" and have that option.
