Success Story: Foggy Dew Pub
Securing the Suburban Gathering Place
The Foggy Dew is a freestanding, suburban pub—a community gathering place that serves the entire spectrum of local residents, from young revelers to senior citizens who enjoy their Sunday brunch. On busy weekend evenings, The Foggy Dew is a packed house, lined up out the door starting at about 7pm.
Implementing TreoScope’s EnterSafe System
Most of the time, on most days of the week, The Foggy Dew feels like a restaurant: Patrons are at their tables, enjoying a meal or other refreshments, and traffic into the pub is sufficiently low that hosts and wait staff can confirm everyone’s ID personally.
As pub visits increase on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, though, so do problems. So The Foggy Dew turned to TreoScope’s EnterSafe to secure their premises, to ensure their customers are safe, and to deter troublemakers: Given The Foggy Dew’s suburban location, it’s a long way to another venue for troublesome patrons!
Since implementing EnterSafe, The Foggy Dew has effectively maintained its position as the neighbourhood’s public house.
The Results
The Foggy Dew has enjoyed a significant drop in violence, and they’re effectively turning away troublemakers before they enter. They’ve also noted a significant drop in the number of minors on their premises, due to EnterSafe’s age and ID validation features.
“Given our situation as a rural pub, TreoScope has helped reduce all kinds of trouble on our premises. I can’t imagine being without EnterSafe on the nights when we have lineups.” — Paul Gaudaur, Owner, The Foggy Dew
