How We Met

Lotties 4/3/22

On Sunday, April 3rd, Alex and his cousin Michael walked into Lottie’s Pub in Bucktown, Chicago, for a Saturday night recovery brunch. They were greeted with an eye roll from a lovely waitress named Colleen. Before they had even ordered coffee, Michael sprang into action, letting Colleen know that Alex was new to the neighborhood…and single. Michael and Alex ended up canceling the rest of their plans that day to stay at Lottie’s and give Alex a chance to flirt with Colleen. At the end of her shift, Colleen decided to give Alex a chance. She handed him the bill with her phone number written at the bottom.
