Wine by the Glass
In the trendiest, most up to date establishments, technology is creating a big impact on how drinks are being served. For example, a wine-sampling device guarantees that bars never have to fear that an expensive bottle of wine is turning into vinegar again, as it can take samples from the bottle without opening it. A hollow needle passes in through the cork, so the wine can be retailed by the glass, rather than just by the bottle. Remaining on the subject of wine, bars in euro are now following their American competition by serving wine on tap from kegs. This trend is growing in popularity not only because it sounds cool, but because it allows wine by the glass to be sold at a much lower price than normal.
Casual Eating
According to Mario Villegas, the President of Twilium Management Group in Seattle , the trend on casual dining is to have a menu design with few items with a high quality food to share. Basically the concept of the Spanish tapas. However, it isn’t just the food and drink served at these premises that has become more casual and uncommon, the décor is transforming too. Formal is on the out, so if you want your bar to draw the young and trendy, dispose the stiff old chairs and bring in the funky, brightly-colored stools.
Quirky Bars
There are already a number of unusual bars and they feature a unique décor that varies from fairground ride chairs and giant playing card placemats, to rustic wooden bars and cocktails served in teapots.
Need motivation? Try to think about the audience you’re trying to attract too – what are their likes and dislikes? And can you integrate the former into your establishment?
The experience
In the words of Mario Villegas, this year, it’s reasonable to say that the most quirky, unique and unusual bars will dominate supreme in the fight for Friday and Saturday night costumers. The hipster and young don’t just want to head to any old bar; they want to go somewhere that serves excellent cocktails with an atmosphere worthy of sharing on Instagram. It’s therefore vital to ensure your furniture and décor catches people’s eyes and have a style to keeps bringing hipsters back to your establishment.
