Well, under the legacy nameplates, a big part of the department store shopping experience was enjoying the full-service sit down restaurants in-store. Bloomingdale's I believe still runs their restaurants in house. However Macy's, unlike many of the legacy nameplates with the exception of the former Marshall Field's, Walnut Room (was run in-house) and lease-op Herald Square restaurants,Rockaway,NJ and perhaps a few others are all there is.
What are your thoughts ? When these restaurants were well operated, they drove traffic ! (Yes, I know the food courts changed the business in the 80's, but respectfully, some insight and other contribution and opinion would be appreciated.
