SNOOCHIE BOOCHIES! MOOBY’S MAKES OFFICIAL POP UP DEBUT JUNE 18th

Saved by the Max Team Honors The Cult Classic With Socially Distanced Interactive Pick Up Experience

LOS ANGELES – June – Kevin Smith, the iconic actor/director/producer, has enlisted the team behind nostalgic phenomenons Saved by the Max, Good Burger, The Peach Pit, and The Breaking Bad Experience to create Mooby’s a pop up homage to his cult classic fast food concept.

After the unwavering success of its charity delivery drive last month, Mooby’s will make its official debut to the public on June 18th at 7100 Santa Monica Blvd. Following the newly released restaurant opening guidelines, the socially distanced pop-up will give fans the opportunity to safely immerse themselves into the world first created by Smith in the 1999 film Dogma.

“It’s no secret the hospitality industry was turned upside down during this unprecedented time,” says one of the pop-ups creators Derek Berry. “More than ever people need a moment to try lifting their spirits, and we really wanted to find a new way of doing things. A hybrid version of our pop up model that allowed these type of nostalgic experiences to continue while maintaining both the safety and happiness of all our fans.”

All guests will be invited to pre-order their “Mooby’s Pick-Up Experience” for $25 which includes their choice of one Moo Main (Cow Tipper or Cow Tipper with Beyond Burger, Cock Smoker Chicken Sandwich, Lasagna Sandwich with Beyond Meat, Egga Mooby Muffin with Beyond Sausage) plus a Salt Lick Side (Hater Totz or Onion Rings to rule them all) all created by Executive Chef Royce Burke (owner of Secret Lasagna).

To maintain proper guest flow and cutting down on any wait times, guests will not be allowed to add on any “hot items” to their experience. A la carte items such as non-alcoholic (soda in commemorative cups), and alcoholic drinks (Fill The Cup (Grown up Capri Sun Cocktail Pouch), dessert, and merchandise can be added during pick up.

All pre-purchased Mooby’s experiences will include a set pick-up time window, limited number of guests admitted per time window, staggered guest arrival times, outdoor check-in, social-distancing enforcement throughout, and complete space sanitization between each and every guest time window. All Mooby’s staff will be required to wear facial coverings, along with the installation of barriers in instances where customers and workers can’t observe the six-foot rule.

While waiting for food take a spin through the Mooby’s Gift Store featuring an exclusive collection of both Jay & Silent Bob and Mooby’s merchandise, including Mooby’s non-medical masks. The pop-up experience will also feature several photo activations including a “Funployee of the Month wall” and Quick Stop exterior recreation, monitored to enforce social distancing with no shareable props allowed. After picking up orders, guests will be allowed to take all food to go or finish their meal socially distanced out on the patio.

Mooby’s will be open starting June 18th Tuesday – Sunday (closed on Mondays) from 12:00 PM to 7:00 PM. Tickets will be available Wednesday June 7th at 10:00 AM PST for $25 @ http://moobyspopup.com. For more information follow @moobyspopup or visit Mooby’s.
