I asked on Facebook before we went to make sure they were
accessible they said they were I had to go through I tap which is next door. We
parked in a parking spot about a block away It was not a handicap spot, but was
at the end of the block where no one could parked next to it. This was Sunday
night and was very easy to park since there wasn't a lot of traffic. When we
arrived at the place my dad just went in and asked how we get in with a
wheelchair since there are two steps in front. They said they would let next
door know and someone would be out to let us in their patio gate.
In not too long someone came out and said the gate was
locked and the only person had a key was the manager who was out of town. So
this guy said he could help lift me to get in, but he didn't look like the type
that could lift 600 pounds. Then he said there was a garage door in the back
that we could get in. So we go down the sidewalk to the end of the block, then
to get to the back alley for the garage door I either had to drive down the
middle of the street or go through the rough grass. I chose the grass which was
a little rough but there wasn't too much to go over.
When we get to the alley
where sure enough there is a garage door which was quite easy to get through.
After we got inside I saw the bathroom and figured it looks like I get in and
might as well use it before I got stuck somewhere else. I tap and epic Share a bathroom
which is in between them and surprisingly it was very accessible. everything
worked great including a big stall and quite a bit of space throughout. Then we
went into the epic pizza and subs part and there was a step down in, so I
thought great what do we do now. About
that time the manager brought out a portable ramp which worked great. After
this it was easy enough to get to the counter to order and they bring
everything to you, your drink and food.
The was table so high that it was really awkward to eat off of,
so I needed a lot of help eating like helping me get my drink and figure out
how to get my burger to my mouth. There were a lot of things to deal with to
eat at this place, but after the burger it was well worth it. On the way out we
went out the other way to the other end of the block where there was a
sidewalk, which would've been the way to go in the first place instead of
through the grass.
This place was not very accessible, but at least they are
making an effort to be accessible in the old building they are in.
