For over 30 years Tanks Bar & Grill on Wayne Avenue has been a great late night option for dining. But that will no longer be a weeknight option. Over the weekend Tanks posted a note on Facebook letting it’s customer know that their hours would be changing:To all our most valued customers. To continue to give the most phenomenal experience Tanks will be adjusting our hours. Due to decrease in late night business and finding quality staff our new hours starting Monday April 23 will be as follows
kitchen hours- sun,mon,tue,wed,thurs are 7am to 10 pm
Friday and Saturday our kitchen 7am to 1 am
Bar will be open till 11 on sun-Thur. And until 2 on Friday and Saturday
Please note all carryouts must be phoned in 30 minutes before kitchen closing.
you may of course order food up until closing time of kitchen to enjoy in dinnig room. We will have been in Dayton 31 years In May and want to continue to serve Dayton and our Great Customers! You are the reason for our work, not the interruption!
If as many people as commented on the post where eating there late nights on a regular basis, this probably wouldn’t be an option, but as management posted on their Facebook page, “We simply do not have enough business late at night. It is not fair to ask employees to stay late in hopes enough customers come in so they do make some money. After 11 most of the time we have 10 customers in 3 hours for 3 servers.”
They were quite reassuring that Tank’s is not closing- just adjusting business to the trends, and that will help us all be able to enjoy those great grilled cheese sandwiches, girlie omelettes and Tankburgers for many more years! And if you know of any experienced restaurant alumni that might be looking for a job-send them Tanks way!
