You don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’re opening a new bar, turning your garage into a full-fledged tavern, or converting a small space into a minibar – get ready for a good time! Be prepared for some hard work too, running a successful bar (or being a great host!) goes beyond just keeping your guest’s drinking glasses full! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So you’ve figured out your signature cocktails, happy hours, and karaoke night schedule, all that’s left is your decor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What makes guests choose one bar over another? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price, drinks, and food all have their place in the ranking, but your atmosphere will either have guests spending hours there or have them leaving far before the last call. By creating an inviting atmosphere, your guests will spend more time hanging out and (you guessed it) having more drinks! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
