Title: Buns and Failure Post by: sgrizzle on June 22, 2010, 12:58:53 pm Went by to finally try Buns-N-Roses today and there was nothing but a pop machine. no food, no furniture, etc.
I have a gift certificate to there, but I don't think it's worth much anymore. Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: Conan71 on June 22, 2010, 01:00:33 pm Location? Never heard of it
Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: dsjeffries on June 22, 2010, 01:08:24 pm Downtown, 5th & Cheyenne. Or I guess now, nowhere.
Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: Townsend on June 22, 2010, 01:50:33 pm I was in the area alot to go to Mayo in the evenings and Sunday mornings. I never saw them open.
I would've tried them out if I had. coulda/woulda Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: TheTed on June 22, 2010, 01:53:48 pm No big loss on Buns and Roses. Another one of downtown's many subpar sandwich shops with subppar hours. All of those lunch only M-F places can go out of business with the exception of Billy's and Atlas Grill for all I care. They add nothing to downtown.
On a related note, I see that awning that said Roberto's Deli on 3rd between Boulder and Cheyenne now reads "The Place Deli" I couldn't tell if it was open when I cruised past. But then again I thought Roberto's was in business until one day I actually tried to visit a couple years back.

They were only open for lunch Monday-Friday.I would've tried them out if I had. coulda/woulda Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: Conan71 on June 22, 2010, 02:03:40 pm Let's see, stupid pun for a name, visions of riches with not much of a desire to work more than 30 hours per week... as the OP said...
Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: DTowner on June 22, 2010, 02:22:05 pm I heard the owner simply didn't show up to open one day last week or the week before. I tried it a couple of times and do not think it will be missed (probably the worst motzo ball soup I've ever had).
It's a good location, but needs something different than just another sandwich shop. I miss the Goldies. Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: heironymouspasparagus on June 22, 2010, 10:11:52 pm Too bad Little Lanny's went away (decades ago). Big Al's is great, but they aren't downtown.
Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: OurTulsa on June 22, 2010, 10:43:38 pm How is it possible that the Ike's Chili location opposite Billy's (5th/Main) has managed to remain vacant for oh-so-long.

Owner is not leasing individual spaces currently.

According to the owner, the name had NOTHING to do with the band. Uh huh. Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: Gaspar on June 23, 2010, 07:09:44 am Nice folks. Young kids that wanted to be restaurateurs, but didn't realize that that takes lots of work. I think they liked the Cosmo concept, except they didn't have the wealth or ethic to back it.
Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: swake on June 23, 2010, 09:03:18 am Owner is not leasing individual spaces currently. Isn't it the same owner as the Tulsa Club? Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: Townsend on June 23, 2010, 09:04:38 am Isn't it the same owner as the Tulsa Club? That's what I've been told.

Yes Man, he's awesome. Title: Re: Buns and Failure Post by: sgrizzle on June 23, 2010, 01:27:42 pm Just saw today, the "for sale or lease" sign on that space has been edited (with construction paper) to just say "for sale"
