The Vault

Often, guests make reservations at Madfish for "you know, that little room you've got." That little room is called the Vault. You see, Madfish Grill used to be a bank, which we now find kind of ironic because the bank that currently resides next door used to be a restaurant. The Vault here at Madfish used to be the vault at the bank. We decided to leave it in place for several reasons:

• Vaults are heavy
• Vaults are meant to be permanent
• Vaults make really good hurricane & tornado shelters
• It costs a whole lot of money to remove a vault
• Vaults would probably make good wine cellars
• Vaults would probably make cozy little private dining rooms
  

The Vault comfortably sits up to 8 people, and we ask that you have at least a party of 5 people to reserve it. The Vault is a popular place, and often books up early, especially during season!

Remember how I mentioned above that vaults probably make good wine cellars? Well, just so happens to be true. We store our wine (and extra liquor) in the back of the Vault. It makes a great storage space, and also inspires some interesting conversation amongst guests.

So, that is the story of the Vault at Madfish. I am working on getting some pictures together on the transformation of Madfish from bank to restaurant. My favorite part of the transformation is the Vault, but I also love how we transformed the drive-through into a kitchen. Stay tuned to see the pictures... I should be able to post them next week!
