I would call and pester them. At businesses like this, a lot of people walk in and file applications. Some are serious, some are not. The owner/manager has no idea who's serious by looking at the papers alone. By calling, you give them that information, and they'll be more inclined to take a closer look at you.
They may well tell you that they want to look at more applications first, and that's perfectly common. But it's important to make contact early. I'd call back a couple of days later, too. Some people hire the first guy that stands out. Others say they want to wait a couple of weeks, but may change their minds off the cuff if somebody comes in who clicks.
This isn't necessarily the way I'd look for a professional job, but it's how I got work back in my McJob days.
