Default What would you like to see in a bar/restaurant

We are in the pre-pre planning process of starting a bar/restaurant, w/ emphasis on the bar part. We have yet to develop a menu etc, and are currently brainstorming. We hope to open a place, that caters to single young people, with a core group of regulars. The bulk of our profits will probably be comming from alchohol sales, but I would like to get together a simple menu. The best idea I had, was to model dishes after a couple of the las vegas hot spots. Send one of our guys out, once a quarter, to a couple of the more hip places, and model the food after them. Ie, the kobe beef mini-burgers, etc. I figure most of your guys are the type I would want to cater too, so what are your thoughts?

$2 pints of Yuengling and good burgers/fries would get me there.

I really like those electronic trivia games they have in Buffalo Wild Wings and such.

Good hotwings are never a miss. A decent beer selection, too.

Yes, this was another idea I had. Since chicken wings are so simple to prepare, and quick, I was going to make 7-8 different homeade "gourmet" sauces, and have sampler platters or just serve them all. Any specific beer reccomendations would be awesome too.


The theme, at least in my mind, is hopefully, going to be an "upscale", modern meets rat pack, with football specials on sunday/monday, fri/sat will be more of a "club" night, and then random drink specials for wed/th.

Depends on where- is this in a legit urban area? If not this idea won't work. Also Have some absurd deal like three dollar pitchers from 7-9 to get them in early, then they will stay and but expensive [censored] after that, or another popular one ive seen is girls drink free for an hour earlyin the evening which draws heavier drinking guys in

It would help to know what region this bar will be in, in order to tailor the beer/menu selections accordingly.

Sorry but if you get one of these you have a crappy bar IMO. Personally I like a good bartender first of all, no matter the decor, a good batender will always be a draw for me. Other than that, too many TV drives me crazy. I dont mind a projection TV when a big game is on, but on a day to day basis a TV in each corner of the bar is fine. Also if you really want me to leave hire a live band. I go to shows all the time, I go to bars to socialize with my friends, not yell over some toll singing Jimmy Buffet too loud.

Again just my opinon.
