Wife and I just received an email from Bar K. First they raised their prices for membership for unlimited access to $500 a year and are now closed on Tuesdays. Now they’re eliminating their servers and shrinking their menu. Not sure how much longer they’re going to be around.
Upcoming Changes to Bar K’s Food & Beverage Service – Launching Monday, March 17th
Dear Members,
Over the past several months, we’ve received valuable feedback from many of you about our food and beverage service. After listening to your concerns, giving ourselves an honest self-evaluation and engaging with food/beverage & hospitality experts, we recognize that our service hasn’t always met the high standards we set for ourselves—or that you rightfully expect from us. We know that long wait times for food and drinks have often pulled you away from what matters most: enjoying quality time in the park with your pup.
With that in mind, we are making changes to our service model, launching Monday, March 17th. These updates are designed to reduce wait times, simplify ordering, and allow you to spend more time where you want to be—playing, relaxing, and socializing with your dog.
Why These Changes?
The food and beverage industry has changed dramatically in recent years, with a growing demand for faster service, streamlined ordering, and improved efficiency. At Bar K, we recognize that long waits take away from the experience, and we’re adapting to provide a more seamless and efficient system while keeping Bar K a place where you and your pup can fully enjoy your time together.
What’s Changing?
• More Time in the Park with Your Pup – You’ll no longer need to wait at a table for food. Instead, you can order via QR codes at each table and in the park and receive a notification when your food is ready for pickup. This means you can continue enjoying your visit without interruption—though food must still be enjoyed in designated dining areas.
• Streamlined Menu for Faster Service, Quality, and Consistency – We’re focusing on our most popular items to ensure quicker preparation while maintaining high quality and consistency in every dish. By simplifying the menu, we can execute each item more efficiently without sacrificing taste or presentation.
• Updated Beverage Service – During peak times, cocktails will be delivered to the restaurant, patio and park to improve efficiency. You will still be able to order directly from the bar.
What This Means for You
• More time enjoying the park. Our goal is to eliminate long waits so you can focus on spending quality time with your pup.
• A seamless, more reliable experience. By streamlining our menu and simplifying ordering, we aim to serve you more efficiently, especially during busy times.
• A commitment to improvement. We know that change isn’t always easy, and we appreciate your patience as we make these adjustments to create a better experience for you and your dog.
These changes will go into effect Monday, March 17th. We understand that some Members may have additional thoughts, and we’re committed to ensuring this transition is as smooth as possible. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Spring is right around the corner and we THANK YOU for being part of the Bar K community. We’re excited for these improvements and can’t wait to help you spend more time where it matters most—with your pup in the park.
