Adios to Taco Pete by Mara & Najia

We love your stuffed quesadillas, on a cold and windy day,

Don’t care if you’re not code compliant, we’re still willing to pay.

Your burritos with potatoes, are the best I’ve ever had.

The taco salad with chips, are also not half bad.

Thank you Mara for being brave, to try a dodgy shack

It’s been our staple ever since, but we’ve got to pack. 

Ol’ Manchester Arms

We’ll miss your English Pub Charm

Your rocket salad was solid

Your Fish n Chips was delish

& your beer selection was perfection.

Manchester Arms.

Foley Design says “Buh-bye” for now

Oh Oz how we love thee, let me count the heartburn

You may have renovated too late, we are off to Puritan

There may be space to play twister now, but our hearts are set on the West Side

We’ll have new chairs to look at, our new home with windows and transoms.

See you later Oz

No more trips across the jittery iron bridge road for us.

- Najia & Isabella

After 26 years, Foley Design is finally leaving the old Buggy Works building & East Point community. A few of us have been here for multiple years and we have grown to love the various food options available to us. Because of this, we decided that an "Around the World Farewell Tour of East Point Eateries" was necessary. First stop, Brake Pad, & it didn't disappoint. We are going to miss those one-of-a-kind shrimp tacos, the truffle chicken salad, the delicious tots, the outdoor patio seating, the garage door doors, & the retro feel.

A few of us decided to head to Atlantic Station to see an inspirational movie after work last month. We thoroughly enjoyed Atlantic Station's chairs, food, decor & were especially pleased with the movie. "Office Christmas Party" inspired lots of ideas for next year's Foley Holiday Mixer. For next year's. An Iceluge. Check. A Slip-n-slide. Check. Hiring a DJ. Check. Formulating a Dance Party. Check. #pumped
