If You Inherited a Beach Bar.....

Bfan53 · Post by **Bfan53** » January 13, 2008 5:49 pm

Let's say one day you open the mail and find a letter from some distant attorney saying that you've inherited a beach bar from a long-lost relative. It seems that this relative somehow remembered you were a Parrothead and thought, for some reason, you'd have a desire to own the bar someday. Well, your "someday" has arrived.....

And, assuming that you actually "chuck it all" and follow your heart into the world of owning such a seaside establishment, and you feel that a name change would be appropriate, what would you now call your beach bar???????

Kindly avoid the name "Bama Breeze".......

"Hammydowns"

Or simply, "Upstate's"

Assuming this a successful bar, I don't think I'd change the name.

But I might put a sign over the bar that says: "I have found me a home".

Yes, and with that tag line it sounds like a perfect franchising opportunity, too!! I can also picture T-shirts, hats, mugs.......

Lower 40's lats seem to work just fine in the summer in New England . . . with the hundred foot tall sand dunes I would have to call it Dune's View or Dune's Point . . . something like that . . .

Since I'd want the customers to keep coming in (ESPECIALLY the female ones), I'd call it "LARRY'S".

"Jack's beach side bar, grille and house of ill repute." It's got a nice ring to it.

Sand Dune Saloon

Sunset Grille

The Surfrider

Some great ideas for names so far. Keep 'em coming.....

I forgot to put "my bar name" in my opening post to this thread:

The Flip Flop Bar & Margarita Emporium - Where sunsets never end

Hmmm, that might be just a bit long to say every time the phone behind the bar rings......

Castaway's"
A piece of beach where the sand is hot, the drinks are cold,
and everyone is welcome to get lost awhile

Or, when you're getting out of workon Friday, you could look at your co-worker and say " Looks like it's gonna be a Dark & Stormy Night"

I have the name for and Irish Pub....

But for a beach bar... if it is a great place now...I would keep the name.

IE: Hammy Down at the Beach

I would call it Karat's Hammy Down at the Beach...

Actually I like Hammy's, Upstate.
