Beer restaurant is an extremely popular format. It is democratic enough to attract a large number of guests. In turn, guests of such establishments are not inclined to save money - the average bill in pubs is quite decent. Those who decide to open a restaurant in this very cost-effective format only need to decide on the concept - and they can start working.
Instructions
Step 1
The main thing in a brasserie is beer. Decide which drink you will be selling. You can bring beer in kegs or organize your own brewery. Another option is to conclude an agreement with breweries that are already operating in your city. They can prepare a special branded drink for you or offer a dozen of their own varieties. "Live" fresh beer is in stable demand among connoisseurs.
Step 2
If you plan to specialize in draft beer, purchase the required number of coolers, install towers with taps corresponding to the number of varieties that will be presented in your restaurant. If, in addition to bottling, you intend to brew beer, you will need a water purification system.
The turnkey brewery will be installed by equipment manufacturers, they will also train personnel and issue a list of recipes. Look for supplier coordinates at specialized exhibitions and trade magazines.
Step 3
Think over the concept of your future pub. Most of these establishments play up the theme of Irish bars, German or Czech pubs. The format of the sports bar is also popular. The interior, menu, programs of your institution, as well as the amount that you will have to spend on the project will depend on the chosen concept.
Step 4
Take care of the interior. The format of pubs implies a large number of interesting "chips" - visitors to bars and restaurants do not tolerate minimalism and empty walls. You will need posters, cups, decorative utensils, paintings and photos of the relevant subject and everything that will form the image of your establishment.
For a sports bar, it is necessary to purchase plasma panels - matches should be clearly visible from anywhere in the room. Some bars even equip toilets with TVs so that fans don't miss a moment of an important match.
Step 5
Pick up staff. Please note that bar turnover is high. Therefore, if you are planning a network of establishments, you will need a HR manager to constantly monitor the labor market. Find a chef with experience in beer restaurants. If you plan on brewing beer, you need a brew chef as well.
Step 6
Form the menu. The basis of the beer restaurant menu is snacks, both hot and cold. However, you will also need a choice of hearty dishes. But the list of desserts can be very short. There is no need to strictly adhere to the national cuisine, even if your establishment is designed in the appropriate style. Include culinary hits on your list of dishes.
In beer restaurants, dishes of Mexican, Russian, American cuisine are excellent. The main principle of the menu is hearty dishes, large portions and more meat.
