Investing in a franchise, particularly a restaurant franchise, can take away some of the guesswork in creating a growing, thriving business. At Bohemian Bull, we’ve gone even further with our franchise bar and grill investment strategy. By pairing with franchising experts, we’ve perfected our franchise model from the outset to give our franchise owners a leg up in a tough but rewarding industry.
How is a Bohemian Bull Franchise Bar and Grill Different?
Part of the lure of a franchise investment is that much of the legwork on brand identity and marketing has been worked out for franchise owners. With a bit of capital, franchise owners can become part of a franchise family, taking advantage of the brand recognition that’s already been created. The possible drawback for many bar and grill franchises is that each location can seem repetitive and flat, without much distinguishing one from the other.
A Bohemian Bull bar and grill franchise is different. The beauty of the Bohemian Bull franchise bar and grill is that we’ve built personalization by franchise owners into our brand. We love giving flexibility to our franchisees to capture the local flair of every location for a distinct experience for our customers. We recognize that each location is part of a local culture and hope to celebrate that as part of our brand’s aesthetic.
For example, a Bohemian Bull franchise bar and grill in a college town could demonstrate loyalty and school pride by incorporating the school’s colors into the location’s decor, hosting college-themed events, or booking musical talent for the beer garden to provide a place where students can get away from the stresses of classes and studying.
A Bohemian Bull bar and grill franchise in a tourist destination could celebrate the uniqueness of the scenery with an open-air beer garden for quality nightlife the tourists may be looking for during their vacation. We also make room on our menu for local delicacies that visitors can be excited to try. Our flagship location in Charleston, SC has attracted residents and visitors alike with our crave-worthy menu that offers local cuisine with a twist to keep it fresh.
It’s this freedom that a Bohemian Bull franchise bar and grill offers that makes us stand out as a restaurant franchise for investors looking for a little more control over their investment.
The Bohemian Bull Franchise Bar and Grill Brand Identity
The Bohemian Bull brand has been carefully crafted to provide customers with a place they can relax, make memories, enjoy their surroundings, and celebrate the local culture. We also strive to support local vendors as much as possible by sourcing ingredients as close to home as we can. This also helps our franchise owners customize their menu to include regional flavors that can’t be found just anywhere.
A Bohemian Bull franchise bar and grill is a place where people can relax, enjoy a craft beer or fine cocktail, watch a game, and catch up with friends over a delicious, craveable meal. We also host events, such as trivia nights, and live music to keep customers returning. Our flagship location takes advantage of our proximity to fresh seafood with weekly oyster roasts to celebrate our Charleston heritage.
The Bohemian Bull beer garden atmosphere is another way we aren’t the average franchise bar and grill. We give our franchise owners a lot of flexibility in their location’s build-out, so they can attract customers looking for a specific vibe. The beer garden creates the atmosphere and opportunity for fantastic themed events to keep the good-time vibe going.
Our franchise owners are able to blend their aesthetics with our brand, including with interior design, which is a big part of the customer experience. So how can you get started with the bar and grill franchise offered by Bohemian Bull?
