As a Silver Spring native, I watched that episode and screamed at the the television that Taffer was completely off the mark and that Silver Spring is not what one would call a corporate town. Not only is NOAA a major employer in the area, but most of the privately owned businesses in Silver Spring work on Federal Government contracts and are more Fed-adjacent than they are "corporate" in the designer-suited executive sense.<br /><br /><br />Silver Spring has a quirky, laid-back culture and a place like Piratz could well have worked theme-wise if the quality of the food, service, and management had been better.MoHubnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415437291380609634.post-47989201418968546182015-07-23T10:20:53.990-04:002015-07-23T10:20:53.990-04:00The "basement bar"—Quarry House—has been...The "basement bar"—Quarry House—has been in business for decades, and after a recent fire actually moved into the Piratz site until repairs are completed in the home location.MoHubnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415437291380609634.post-76271486490559502332015-07-21T19:08:05.679-04:002015-07-21T19:08:05.679-04:00I hope they do well thereI hope they do well thereDavid Heagney Jrhttp://hubcapdave.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415437291380609634.post-52849457390020021742015-07-13T20:43:09.459-04:002015-07-13T20:43:09.459-04:00Haha right!

HOW WOULD ANYONE KNOW?! That Half-Witted Ditz only gave it TWO DAYS! Then that incompetent moron went back to living in her little fantasy world. <br />I don't feel sorry for that bimbo! Good enough for her and her leech of a husband. She Tried to use Bar Rescue to generate publicity for her tacky little bar. She was stupid enough to think that publicity would solve all her problems so she wouldn't have to keep the Intelligent changes that Jon made. I would have been Very Interested in going to the Corporate Bar. That laughable little pirate bar looked like something for kids. Except it served alcohol. <br />That space-cadet and her husband need to a serious reality check! They obviously do not know very much about how to Successfully run a business.

The pirate theme might have worked in another location, but surrounded by high rise office blocks it was a joke. Everyone but the owner and the staff knew that, and the fact the bar ran into massive debt is the ultimate proof. I'm not surprised that the owners are still trying to blame Bar Rescue, as it is just an extension of the denial we all witnessed when watching the episode. This is a perfect example of how not to run a bar.Paul Hayesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415437291380609634.post-64382477732424082502015-05-23T20:12:00.996-04:002015-05-23T20:12:00.996-04:00I Also just watched a video of the husband her tal...I Also just watched a video of the husband her talking about him coming back and talking to my daughter like that what an a****** and a loser like her daughter said her daughter is smarter than she is a I seen it looks like it was making money that's what's important God the girls smarter than you and if a guy ever talk to my daughter like that I would knock him the f*** out he is such a loser and you are to you let your daughter down because of your stupid pirate theme and your stupid ass husband you can't take the truth John Taffer and be a little mean but he delivers But your husband and you can't deliver cuz he's an idiot and an a****** I wouldn't blame John he shouldn't come back he did fix your bar you didn't take his advice why would I ever comes back to that bar with too immature owners that can't work for money and not play all day like little children God is watching those too they are such losers I can't take it no moresaundranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415437291380609634.post-13820210897379805112015-05-23T19:59:35.313-04:002015-05-23T19:59:35.313-04:00I just seen that video of burning it wow is she s...I just seen that video of burning it wow is she such a loser how old is she when I seen her crew they look like promising good working people and she made them to be losers like her just because she didn't want it didn't mean they didn't want it she ruined their hopes and dreams I hate people and there's no hope for people like that she should have never had a business she didn't deserve it and she didn't deserve Jon Taffer and what he did for her all i have to say is a big ass losersaundranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415437291380609634.post-90129534310821483192015-05-23T19:51:10.680-04:002015-05-23T19:51:10.680-04:00Yeah you can't believe everything on tv but sh...Yeah you can't believe everything on tv but she blow a big opportunity to make money Jon Taffer was trying to help her and that's what I believe his intent we're to was it's not about being a a pirate its called making money making a living and it's true her husband is an a****** on the TV and its true about her part you care more about your daughter or being a pirate to me she took the pirate over family to live in your mother basement loser she needs to grow out and who burn something that probably caused Taffer crew in team a lot of money to help her out she is a lost cause and a loser in my eyes I'm not a big corporate person but guess what I would have embrace it and made money that's the important part and putting my daughter in school it would have made a lot of money but people are actually having fun and her negativity put her employees down in the people liked it better than she did the owner She such a loser and you can help people Jon Taffer is right about that bars is easy to fix not people in this case she's a lost cause and I feel sorry for her daughter because I seen another bars he fix and their still going strongsaundranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415437291380609634.post-91429081872718782532015-05-17T16:52:41.430-04:002015-05-17T16:52:41.430-04:00I would have visited that place just to take a sho...I would have visited that place just to take a shot at the owner.
