“Most bars are made today with a facility that is good to make a drink to fail, but not good enough to make drinks to profit.”
The bar can make and break your business.
You are opening a new restaurant with a lot of investment that is paying out to your interior designers, craftsmen, labour, suppliers, license fees, and so much more for the rent and security, and hiring of staff. Guess what you will be the last one to get paid, after you have paid the government its taxes. You will see your money as a bottom-line, i.e. the end.
Your Bar defines the Bottom-Line
Everything else is a struggle in a restaurant business.
- It takes a lot of time and labour to prepare food and serve.
- The month ends quicker, and rent, salaries, and utilities cheques dip your cashflow.
- A lot of marketing expenses creates a slow customer walk-in, who are quick to judge and leave (here goes the marketing money). It’s much harder for customers to stay.
- Cost of food and beverage inventory is fluid, and wastages are high as everything is perishable.
- These costs won’t change, they continue to rise. Who is you friend?
The Four Pillars of your Restaurant’s Success.
There are four pillars of your enterprise, and they are high technology communication and business systems, advanced marketing tools & positioning, state of the art facilities, and a great HR system leading to accountability, transition and incentive.
The restaurant cannot succeed if anyone is missing, it can survive is some of them are compromised, but destined to fail if the facilities are compromised.
THE BAR State of the Art Facility
Without state-of-the-art facility, the rest three (business systems, marketing tools and HR) are also an expense. Your facility needs to be more powerful than all the three together. One can choose high price and slow speed, but that does not sustain for long term. What always sustains in foodservice business is high speed at efficient prices.
Th Kitchen for most restaurants is a time consumer. The costs roll, as the kitchen prepares. The ball drops at the bar counter to make the register roll. And how your bar is made, will determine the size of your bottom-line number. Why do you think the restaurant failure rate is over 80%?
The mistake most uninitiated operators make, who haven’t been entrepreneurs, and take their failure from one job to another, is inadequate bar facilities. A bar that is good to make a drink to fail, but not good enough to make drinks to profit.

A Profitable Bar, an Essential for Prosperity
Compromising on the bar that can make good drinks to profit, is taking a risk on all the investment for the restaurant. A right bar’s cost is negligible when compared to the projects overall cost. The bar’s importance in a beverage driven restaurant is essential.
The mistake one will make is treating the bar as a utility corner. The smart-investor will acquire a state-of-the-art bar facility by giving it an extra share from everything else, because the bar has to support everything else.
What we need from the bar, is its capability to store high volume of bar ingredients in different shapes and sizes, close at hand. Speed of bartending to serve many more drinks per hours, using lesser labor. A beautiful layout & design that does not run down the restaurant’s positioning as a top tier respectable and credible brand. Offering a variety of bar products, not limited, with a well organized setup in the backbar that inspires the guests.
