Hi ladies,

Thought you might wanted some pictures of The Diner in Denmark. The first two weeks has been an overwhelming success and that gives us opportunity to open one or several more The Diners quicker than expected. People are so excited of the furniture, the floor, the milkshake machines The whole concept. We can talk more some other time, we just wanted to share some good moments and pictures with you. Have a nice day.

Best Regards, Morten Schaumann

Hi Debbie,

I just wanted to let you know that the machine arrived on Friday and is working perfectly! What an amazing find!!!! It looks like everything is fine, nothing was damaged in shipping. Thank you for your help! Now, if I can only find someone who sells Coke Zero in glass bottles….

David – Charlotte, NC #10545

We just received our booth and all we can say is wow, wow, wow!!!! We are very pleased with the quality and workmanship of the seats. Thank you so much for all your help with our purchase. We will recommend you to our family and friends. Estes Trucking was so easy to deal with. Thank you so much.

Rod – Strasburg, OH #10480

Dear Liz,

Thank you so much…I loved everything!

And good news…This morning around 7 a.m. got a phone call (this is Saturday morning) from the trucker. He was on his way with the delivery. They allowed us to open and found everything in good shape. We love the booth; haven’t put the table together yet…It’s heavy and think we’ll wait till we get back from vacation and have my son help. When everything is together, I’ll send you a picture of my kitchen…You’ve been a real sweetheart! Thanks again!. I’m delighted with the workmanship!

Joan – Bohemia, NY #10258

Dear Becky,

I just wanted to let you know that everything went very well with the delivery of our booth. They accepted the delivery charge that you advised. I am so beyond thrilled with the quality of the booth and table! My family is already enjoying them and I am sure we will for a long time to come. They look even better than they did in the photos. I have to thank you again for the assistance you provided me. I love the table with the aqua boomerangs. It is just what I wanted. I love the ocean color as well. If you had not helped me as much as you did, I may have ended up disappointed with the product I selected. Please pass this along to your boss. I am in customer service and I know how important it is to go above and beyond with my clients. You have certainly done this in my case and I am sure you do with all your clients. Many blessings to you. I will send you some photos once I have everything the way I want it.

Ann – Dallas, PA #10358

The furniture arrived yesterday and it is gorgeous!!! I am SO pleased with it. I can’t wait to see it in my garage! We are headed up to our cottage today, so I will be able to take some pictures for you. It’s going to look awesome!!! My husband and I were extremely impressed with the packaging of the furniture. It was in boxes, shrink wrapped on a pallet! The table top was boxed with a wood frame built around the four sides. Again, thank you so much for all of your help and guidance………..it’s beautiful.

CJ – Rochester Hills, MI #10306

Just a quick note to thank you for your fantastic and always courteous customer service. We just love, love, love our new booth! The cats are being good with it, and have snuggled up in it with no problems. Thank you again.

Elizza – Dresden, ME #10218

It has been so busy and thought I need to get an e-mail out to you no matter what hits my desk today. The furniture is beautiful and everyone loves it. It is comfortable and looks great. What a beautiful product you sell. People now want to add napkin holders, salt & pepper shakers, etc. I am telling them if they want to open the restaurant please feel free to do so but you will have to buy the supplies, food, funny drinks, and dont forget to hire the staff too). I am putting up the decor now and will take pictures once we have a couple walls painted an accent color. Thank you very much for your wonderful service and an AWESOME product. I just have to say when I Googled on the internet your establishment was the second one I had looked at and knew right away it was where I wanted to buy the furniture.

Jacobson Companies – Robin – Des Moines, IA #10120

Hi-

You made us a wonderful table and chair set back in June 2002…we still LOVE it! It’s in excellent condition, even after using it every day for 9 years!!

Cande – Eden Prairie, MN #258

Dear Becky…

Our order was received yesterday by about 10:30 AM. The Estes driver was very helpful assisting us in bring the very large, heavy box out of the rain and in helping us unpack to inspect for damage. No damage found. We are very pleased with the entire process from your first response to my several e-mails concerning dimensions, to you sending a color sample to help with that concern we had, to the decent price, rapid manufacture and choice of shipper who was very courteous. It has been a pleasure working with you and I will certainly very HIGHLY recommend Bars & Booths should the need arise. Thank You My Friend and to All at Bars and Booths who made this a good experience!

Daniel – Kearney, NJ #9622

Deb,

We just set up our booth and you were right – we are verrrrryyy pleased!!! Thanks.

Susan/Coca Cola Enterprises – Ft. Pierce, FL #9453

Liz,

We received the booth and the stools today. They came through in great shape and we really love it all. It looks great where we put it and we put it on our face book to night and we already have heard from a friend on how great it looks. Thanks again for all your help and your great suggestions. Every thing fits just great and is of great quality.

Linda and Duane – El Paso, TX #9167

Hello Barbara,

My table and chair order arrived today and they look great. No, not great-fantastic! Talk about a “wow” factor. My room has come alive with the orange and blue chairs. And the table has just the right amount of subtlety that makes it just right. I can tell just by taking the chairs out of the box, by their heaviness, that this is quality stuff-not that I didn’t know that anyways I had a friend of mine help me bring the table up to my apartment and even he commented, once everything was unpackaged, how everything felt heavy ie., good, material and workmanship.

Joe – Brisbane, CA #8984

I just want to send you a quick note to let you know that we received our pub table and stool and we absolutely LOVE it! It arrived on Friday (1/29) and we assembled it and used it that night. We are all very impressed with its quality, ease of assembly and, of course, its appearance. Even the packaging was top notch. So thanks again for all of your assistance (and patience) in selecting the right stool color and table top (the samples were a huge help…the red seats are perfect and the ebony boomerang table top looks great.) We definitely made the right choices and appreciate all of your help.

Nancy – Andover, MA – #8997

Dear Becky,

The beautiful retro table and chairs arrived yesterday afternoon and I took a few photos for you so you could see how well the color of the cushions match the wall in our “dining nook.” You did an excellent job of describing the swatches!!! My husband loves the table as it is low enough for his height. Also, the 2″ cushions are very comfortable for him and the back cushion just cradles his 89-year-old back. Thank you for your excellent customer service!

Sincerely,

Eddie and Diane

Eddie and Diane – Asheville, NC – #8448

Hi Liz

Just wanted to let you know that we received our 8 chairs, table and 3 barstools today. We are impressed with how quickly they arrived after being shipped just the end of last week! Anyway, everything is all set up and looks SUPER!!! We really couldn’t be happier with the quality or appearance of our new items. Thank you so much for all your service, samples, emails, answers, etc., as well as a website that accurately describes and represents your product. We have begun to finish our basement and will most certainly keep Bars and Booths in mind when it comes time to decorate!

Sincerely,

Beth and Bob

Jason – New York, NY – #7849

Congratulations on having such a wonderful business with outstanding diner products. I really like Bars and Booths and your products and service are the best that I have come across in almost any market. Liz has provided me with excellent service and it is a pleasure doing business with hershe has taken great care of me in the past. It’s nice that us diner aficionados have a resource like Bars and Booths to call upon. For me, its service that counts most and that is why I keep coming back to Bars and Booths.

Dan – Sydney, Australia – #7936

Just wanted to say thank you!!! A few weeks ago we received our booths, tables, and chairs and they are GREAT!!! The are for our new ice cream shop which has just opened (6 days ago) and everyone loves the furniture. I really want to say thanks the service was great and the product is too!!! Thanks again, Kelly

Kelly – Johnstown, PA

Hi Liz!

Here is how my beautiful booth turned out in my restored, 1957 Kitchen! Thought you might like to post the pictures on your website. Let me know if you do. Thanks for all your help! It is just perfect and never fails to provide comfort, beauty, and appreciation from all who visit my Columbus, Ohio mid-century home. Alan D’Aurora

Alan – Columbus, OH

Hi Liz,

The booth is WONDERFULL!!! Look’s great! I could not use 3rd piece as thought, but am VERY happy!! Please pass the “thank u’s around”. Have a great weekend.

Bonnie – Satisfied Customer!!

Bonnie – Greensboro, NC

OH MY GOODNESS!, it was well worth the wait (for the pictures on your website). You guys are so gracious to have put the whole basement on the web. I can’t thank you enough and it would be my honor to be your design consult should you need me. A great bit of the thankfulness should also go to my husband who made sure his $’s could finance the dream and I thank you all at “Bars&Booths” for making it happen. I designed a lot of things but this by far was the most awesome and again without all of you it could not have been done. Becky, Debbie and of course my buddy and bar creator Gene and the rest of the staff are awesome and I’m looking forward to a continued relationship with “Bars&Booths” and selling your bars etc. to more happy customers. Our families have planned and have had thus far many weekends of movies and events and just tell us to be there, they truly love it. Our evenings home from work and weekends are spent in the “Blue Heaven”. I will keep you updated on the finishing of the “Blue Heaven” as I put your retro frig, and banquette to help finish it up (I will be ordering them shortly). Again the pleasure was all ours. Thanks for making us a part of your family and we pray for your continued success of “Bars & Booths / BITW”

God Bless You All, The Cromer Family

P. S. The name holds true our “Blue Heaven” you gave it the PERFECT name!

Thanks

Priscilla – Laurel, MD

Mark – UK

Just wanted to send some pictures of our finished Kitchen “FINALLY”! The pub table, chairs & small end table were all purchased back in March 2007. The table tops were finished in the Red Ebony Boomerang Laminate. I also purchased additional Red Ebony Boomerang Laminate and did the window frame & sill. The pub chairs were all the American Beauty B1T3B. We are very happy with our decision to purchase our furniture from BITW. It is all very high quality. Thanks for the great furniture! Also, a special thanks to Liz Brigman for all her help through all our decision making and purchases,Great Job!

Larry – Sterling Heights, MI

Hi. I absolutely love our new range. The color is beautiful!! Thanks so much. You can be sure that I will be doing business with your company again!

Francine – Leesburg, VA

I am Mitsuo in Japan, I will send picture of 1015 with me, Now he is swinging jazz music on good vintage tone. Mitsuo – Japan

Thank you so much for being a pleasure to work with from start to finish there are not enough people in sales that are as helpful and competent as yourself and Debbie and a sale like this with regards to international logistics rarely go well and I thank you very much. I will be in touch when I take some pictures of new super booth and smiling face!!

John – Northern Ireland

Just wanted to let you guys know that I received my booth yesterday and finally got everything set up in my kitchen today. Just wanted to thank everyone at Bars & Booths for your wonderful service. Even during the month long wait of having my booth made, you guys were always easy to contact and give me updates on how things were going. I have nothing but great things to say about your company and their products. I will be ordering from you again soon. After I get my corner decorated (thinking of getting a coke machine or jukebox to go with it), I will take a pic and send it over so you can add it to your website. Please feel free to post this letter on your website, and let your supervisors or managers know how happy I am to have done business with you. Thank you again for your hard work, dedication & quality service…

Jeremy – Rodeo, CA

Hi Liz and Becky,

I just wanted to pass along my thanks for the relatively quick turn around on the table and chairs we ordered. The size and color couldn’t fit better in our quasi-retro kitchen. We won’t hesitate to call in the future. Many thanks and happy holidays!

Bryce

Bryce – Chambersburg, PA

We just received our booth and it is simply gorgeous. Quality workmanship at its finest. the freight shipper was great also. It has been a pleasure doing business with you, and we do look forward to doing more business with your company in the future.

Dana and John – Palm Coast, FL

I am very happy to tell you that we have completed our diner. I have attached several pictures for you to choose from for your website. We have named our new room “Mom’s Diner” and we have enjoyed doing business with you. Thank you.

Doris – Hillsborough, NC

Good Morning, I cannot believe the price of these. I just love it for it’s beauty and so does everyone else. I had also bought a bar and stools for my daughter for Christmas that year. It is still being enjoyed and is a great hit in her game room. Thanks for carrying great products and for being so reliable.

Francene – Guilford, CTM

Got the booth today, we are incredibly happy with it. It is beautiful. Had the neighbors over, they couldnt believe it, wanted chocolate malteds to test it out. I told them we already tested it out with banana splits! Workmanship and materials really top notch. Sandi has the table all decked out with her collectable Jadite restaurant wear. We went out and bought one of those wire things that holds the salt, pepper, ketchup and mustard squirt bottles and she found a menu from a 50s diner so that is stuck on the little wire condiment holder, you know – that little loop on top. Anyway, thanks again. We will try to send you some business from our neighborhood.

Charlie and Sandi – Jonesborough, TN

Just a note to let you know I still love the bar, credenza, and back bar you built for me last year (Richards Retro Room in your website photos). It still looks as good as the day I got it and all my visitors are amazed by the whole room. I hope to get to Charles Town sometime soon, as I know youll have something in your store I wont be able to resist.

Richard – Harrisonburg, VA

We are sending this email to let you know that we have received our booths and tables and have them in our new home diner. They are beautiful in our new space and we are thrilled with the qualityyou have been so helpful and a pleasure to work with.

Doris – Hillsborough, NC

We could not be happier with our experience with Bars & Booths. Everybody from ‘phone answerers’ to delivery and in-between have been more than helpful, encouraging and so easy to work with. We built the room from scratch and had a lot of questions. Everybody was willing to send swatches, measure cords, explain pieces, do whatever we needed to make the room come together. It is because of everyone’s willingness to help over and above that our room exceeded our expectations. We could not be happier or more pleased with the final result. Because of all the follow through and the total willingness to work with us, our room fell together like a puzzle. Thank you, thank you!! The delivery was also effortless. No carpet stains, no wall gouges, no dented furniture. Thank you for being respectful of our house! We look forward to whole heartedly recommending you to people and using you in the future.

Janna

Tom and Janna Hawkins – Ambler, PA

Well, it’s been a lot of work, and we are just about finished with the downstairs. I can’t call it a basement anymore. There’s too much money invested in “Chuck’s Diner”. Plus we also put in an exercise room, and a media room is adjacent to the “diner”. I must tell you that we have received so many compliments on your furniture! The quality is the best, and you were a pleasure to work with. We designed it for a “wow” factor and for lots of conversation …I think we succeeded.

Chuck – Bryn Mawr, PA

Thank you for your support. It really means a whole lot. I’m certainly glad there are still businesses that care about customer satisfaction. Well I just want to let you know that I received my merchandise today, and I am floored. The stuff you sent was packaged to the hilt. The movers said that whoever packaged the merchandise did an exceptional job. I want to thank you for that. But, the best part was still to come. The product I paid for is a cut ABOVE superior. It is fantastic. Everything Becky and Barbara said is true. “I indeed am thrilled with my purchase.” The Wurlitzer 1015 is beautifully restored. It is a marvel that something 60 years old can be made to look and function so well. Simply amazing. My wife keeps insisting that the Vendo 56 you restored is truly NOT, but is in fact a new machine, recently fabricated in some plant back east. She, as well as myself, are astonished that it is so beautiful. Again a superb restoration. My wife also loves the dinette set. In fact she made me set it up immediately so she could serve dinner to our son who was coming over. It is well constructed and was are extremely pleased with it. I didn’t really know what to expect, but it is everything that was promised. Again thank you. So in in the end all my worries were unfounded. You business is top notch and everything you say is true. You people are true masters of your craft. From the bottom of my heart thank you for being in business. As soon as I replenish my fun money account I will be in for more!

Pete Nava – Glendale, California

Thanks for checking in. The tables and chairs are both set-up and the room looks great. As soon as I have artwork up, I will take a picture and e-mail it to you. You, too, have a been a great pleasure to work with. I am sure that we will be in contact again in the near future. Your service was wonderful; from the very moment that I picked up the phone, to the time you came out in person with samples. It’s amazing how many companies out there don’t have the personal touch and service that you do.

Thank you again!!

Dede – Hyatt Regency Dulles Airport, VA

The furniture has arrived and it is absolutely awesome. We love it and it is much better than we thought it would be, it is much bigger and more robust than we thought, it should last us a lot of years, even with a 6 year old in the house. I will send you photos when we have installed it in our kitchen, but at the moment we are still decorating. I can’t thank you enough for your customer service, there are a few shops in England that could learn a lesson or two!! The furniture is all intact and none of it is damaged and Bax Global delivered it door to door for very little extra cost. I have saved approximately 1000 by buying the furniture from you in America, rather than getting a retailer in England to do it for me. Once again, thank you very much for the service you have provided, I would recommend it to anyone.

Angela – North Yorkshire, England

Everything is all put together, and I couldn’t be happier in how the set turned out! I’ve attached a few pictures – my lack of digital photo skills doesn’t do the picture justice, as the color is rich, vibrant, and sleek. My wife is now starting to talk about the Coke machine too, so that tells me that she’s as enthused as I am as to how the finished product fits into our condo. Thanks so much for all of your help, and the phenomenal service from start to finish. Not sure who to provide kudos, but be sure to mention to your manager/company owner how pleased I was with your standard of service, and what a rarity it is these days to receive the kind of commitment, enthusiasm, and service excellence that you provided for me.

Jason – Calgary, Alberta Canada

I wish to very happily inform you that the jukebox has arrived and is currently being moved to my sisters house. Although I will not see it until around December time, I wish to thank the whole team in advance. Thank you. And thank you for the flexibility of doing business via the email system. Where I am at the moment, it just serves to be the easiest way.

Geoff – San Francisco, CA

Received three of the four stools on Friday and the fourth one today. Everything was as we expected. The pictures on the internet did not do them justice. They are really beautiful. Thank you for your time and help with our project. They are the finishing touches in our game room.

Terry – Anderson, Indiana

I just want to let you know that the cafe table and two chairs were delivered this morning and they are A-OK and look great! I couldn’t be happier. Thanks for having them reach me in such a surprising short period of time. I look forward to doing further business with Bars & Booths.

Peter – Long Island, NY

We picked up our table on Saturday. It looks fantastic!! The chairs came earlier in the week and they compliment the table very well. Thanks again for the wonderful customer service and we will stop in again when we need another cool vintage piece.

Terry – Northern Virginia

Just wanted to say, “thanks!”. Our booth is gorgeous! And so are the chairs! I got to eat two meals yesterday sitting at our new booth – finally! Finally meaning it’s been almost 2 years of waiting for this purchase! As my husband said last evening – It feels like home now!

V Smith – Elizabethtown, PA

I often get requests for my furniture that I got from you! It is wonderful and well made too. Do you have any cards you can send me for referrals if I do get customers who want your items?

Business Owner/Ft. Pierce, FL – K-9 Bakery and Cafe

I must take a couple of minutes out of my busy day to let you know how impressed I am with your company. I purchased a Cavalier 96 vending machine last year and recently needed to replace the light bulbs in the white “Coke” sign. I called last Wednesday to ask for some assistance and Ben was very pleasant and transferred me over to Carlos (I think his name was Carlos, I apologize if I am wrong) who refurbishes the machines. Carlos talked me through the task and even gave me his cell phone number in case I got stuck. Oh, by the way we love our vending machine and feel free to use any part of the email as advertising.

A. Lombardo – Massachusetts

Hi Gang! My Booth is Fantastic! I will send a picture when it is finished installed in My Garage. Happy Holidays to You all. Your people make up a great product!

-See Ya

Doug – Martha’s Vineyard

Hi!

My name is Mark McKenzie and I ordered a Deco booth from you last year. I just wanted to write you and let you know how happy I am with it. Nearly a year has passed and I am still in awe of it. The construction could not have been better and the table is incredibly sturdy. I had to take the seats out and fill the bottom of the benches with weights to keep them from moving around, but other than that I honestly cannot find a single fault with it. It was a lot of money and I nearly didn’t purchase it because of the cost, but I now feel it was worth every penny! Everyone always oohs and ahhs when they come in and see it, and when they come a little closer and see the boomerang design of the table they ooh and ahh more. I want to pass along a special thank you to Becky for talking me into the ebony color for the table! You were right, Becky, it is a much richer color and it really puts a nice finish on the entire booth! I just wanted to let you all know that even after a year has passed I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. In my opinion you have a company you can be proud of and you make a quality product that has made this customer very satisfied.

Mark – Holiday Island, AR

I have never done this type of letter before but I believe you deserve the appropriate recognition. I’m not sure if this letter will be received by you or your accounts receivable department, but I think it necessary to include it with my payment. I will be sending a copy of this letter to the manager of sales at the above address to make sure you receive the recognition i believe you deserve. I wanted to praise you for the friendly, extremely courteous and professional manner when helping me with my order. I realize that these qualities are very helpful in your position but I felt your actions enabled me to place my order with no confusion and I was able to completely understand the entire process, including any options. Thank you very much for your assistance and hope you continue the excellent service.

Jeff – New York, NY

Just wanted to take this time to write and thank everybody for making the Coca Cola cooler for me. It really looks great, better then it did when it was brand new (Jan 1957). I really appreciate the personal touch like sending me the two cases of 7 oz coke bottles. In general I just want to thank everybody. GW and office staff and restoration staff and the delivery men and everyone involved. You have all made my quest for this machine possible and a pleasure. Hope to do business with you again. Thanks for everything!

Hank – Pittsburgh, PA

This is the Wurlitzer you sold to me a year ago. Look it is working perfectly. A friend is playing a record. Click here to see the link of photos of Roberto’s Jukebox.

Roberto – Spain

Hope you enjoy this copy of the magazine along with the other pictures. PEOPLE LOVE THIS MACHINE – You all do great work! Thanks for all the help. We are doing a lot more “sprucing up” to the shop, and we are entering a contest for the best looking Lube shop Nationwide. Our whole crew here is pumped up to win this. I welcome any tips or suggestions.

Again….Thank You!

Steve – Village Auto Shop – Newton, OH

(P.S. We restored a Pepsi Soda Machine for Steve and it was titled on the front cover of “Oil and Lube” magazine, and he graciously sent us a complimentary copy!)

The chairs are here and are absolutely wonderful! They are exactly what I was looking for. Here are some snapshots of the chairs in their new home…I hope they work for you. Speaking of work, I hope to work with you and/or your company in the future. You see, when I buy my own house, I just know that I’m gonna want a booth. Thank you for all of your help with this order. Your customer service has been exceptional.

Amy – Bentonville, AR

The kitchen set and barstools are GREAT! everyone here is so happy and complimentary of them. thanks for all of your hard work and patience with us.

Andrea – Croton-o-Hudson, NY

Although my retro room is not finished (will it ever be?), I wanted to send you some photos of the bar, back bar, and credenza you built for me. The quality and workmanship are exceptional and everything was delivered without a blemish or smudge. Your delivery people even moved my gas pump from our master bathroom down to the retro room. Everyone is speechless when they see what weve done with what used to be a spare basement room. You may not see it in the photos, but the Rock ola 424 jukebox I purchased from you sits to the right of the bar and adds a great touch to the atmosphere. Thanks for all your help. Were looking forward to another visit to your store in Charlestown. We hope you enjoyed reading some of our testimonials. We really enjoy designing and building our custom furniture and we appreciate it when our hard work is recognized by our customers. If you have a testimonial that you would like to put on our site just send us an email!

Richard – Harrisonburg, VA
