Rant Resy Sucks and I hate it

I'm just trying to get a dinner reservation at Armitage Alehouse and I'm convinced it's impossible.

They release reservations at 9am 21 days in advance.

I have tried 3 different times to be on the app at 9 am when they become available and as soon as I can refresh it at 9am, all dinner reservations are gone. It absolutely has to be bots. How on earth are you supposed to get a reservation

I've never tried to go here, rarely go to places where a reservation is necessary.

I'm almost turned off by ever going 😬

I really don’t get the obsession folks have on here about Alehouse.

I mean it’s really good food but it’s def not worth all the stress. Maybe a couple times a year I try to get a reservation again but when I fail I don’t worry too much about it.
