Kevin Smith’s Mooby’s Restaurants coming to LA for real

If you’re a Kevin Smith fan living in LA, then we have some cool news for you all.

In the Viewaskewniverse – the universe in which Kevin Smith’s movies take place – there is a fast-food chain called Mooby’s (if you’ve seen Dogma and Clerks II you’re well aware of it) and now you’ll be able to get your hands on a Mooby’s meal!

You lucky, lucky people.

Smith has announced (below) that he’s teaming up with Derek Berry and the team behind the Saved By the Max and Good Burger pop-up restaurants in LA to bring the world their first real Mooby’s restaurant.

And before that you can even order a Mooby’s meal delivery through Postmates – and all proceeds go to No Us Without You, a fundraiser that provides food for families of undocumented restaurant workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.

So if you’ve ever fancied finding out why all those executives had to die in Dogma, then now’s the time to find out.

Ever since I first introduced the fictional fast food joint in my films, folks have said “You suck at movies, so open a Mooby’s!” Now the folks who did @savedbythemax is building the @moobyspopup – an IRL eatery in Los Angeles that opens later this year, pandemic depending! But as a preview of what’s to come, a Mooby Meal will be available for delivery in L.A. via @postmates starting THIS SUNDAY and running til 4/25! Our takeout Mooby Meals include “Mooby’s Messy Lasagna Sandwich” with a side of “Hater Totz” and “Chocolate Covered Pretzels” for dessert! And for your “toy surprise”, we include an autographed Reboot card from me, that will also entitle the bearer to front row slots when the pop-up is finally open to the public! And we’re donating the proceeds to @nouswithoutyou (providing meals to families in need effected by Covid 19). If you’ve ever seen #dogma, or #jayandsilentbobstrikeback, or #clerks2, or #jayandsilentbobreboot, you’ve seen fake people eat at a fake fast food joint! Now, BE a fake person eating actual food from a real restaurant! Many thanks to @heyitsderekberry and the #savedbythemax folks for making a dopey dream come true! Follow @moobyspopup and on the high holiday of 4/20, live the Mooby’s slogan “I’m Eating It!” (Mooby Meals will be prepared by Chef @royce_burke and the @secret_lasagna team. Limited amounts daily, all of which will be offered first come, first serve. Hours 12pm-8pm. Follow @MoobysPopUp for more info!)
