🔥A LITTLE PATIENCE AROUND THE BONFIRE🔥

We’ve been making a lot of changes around here lately, and now we’re tackling a BIG one — a brand-new POS system.

For our staff, that means relearning how we ring orders, send tickets to the kitchen, make modifications, handle payments and pretty much everything in between. We’re excited about it, but we also know the first few weeks might come with a few “where the heck is that button?” moments.

The reason we made the switch is simple: we want to run a better restaurant.

This new system will help us keep pricing accurate, better track inventory, make kitchen tickets clearer and cut down on mistakes between the front and back of the house.

So PLEASE give us grace and kindness while the staff is taking care of you! ❤️

Thank you all for supporting the BONFIRE🔥 ❤️🙏
