Thinking about opening a bar? Before you dive in, ask yourself: do you really know what you’re getting into? Running a bar isn’t just late nights and Instagram-worthy cocktails - it’s juggling razor-thin margins, managing unpredictable staff, navigating legal minefields, and keeping customers happy 7 nights a week.
