Have you visited this bar. How was it?

We need your comments.


Did it have a warm ambiance or warm beer?

Silver service or zero service?

Is is a Sun readers bar or a Sundays Sports reader's bar?

Well, that's a good bit of market research anyway, albeit from a fairly low intellect audience.

Not one negative post regarding our cafe/bar.

Considering the amount of whingers we have on here, I did expect something.

Just proves how easy it is to please some people (and make money out of it). :crylaughing:

To be honest mate, you would have looked a complete plonker dressed like that in our cafe/bar. :crylaughing:

Thank you Zara. :hat:

I actually feel sorry for some of the posters in this thread and am not offended by their comments whatsoever. I believe that it just highlights some of their weaknesses like jealousy, bitterness and general ignorance.

At some point in the future however, I will disclose the whereabouts of the cafe/bar I invested in and then I will definitely have the last laugh. :raspberry2:

Meanwhile, let's see if we can get it to 1,000 posts - I might have another fifty quid bet on it and it will create some much needed traffic for our Forum.

You've virtually hit the nail on the head there Ecky - No, we don't really need your custom.

I've just returned from Tenerife and am very pleased with the cafe/bar's performance to date.

We have a nice regular customer base and I'd hate to scare them away with the €uropinters, bingo, meat raffle and crappyoke crowd.

Thank you for your interest anyway. :tiphat:

Well i have to give you credit jimandsi you bar/cafe must be the ONLY bar in Tenerife that's not looking for business.

Even if you won't share with your fellow forum members where you business is in Tenerife you could at least share a few tips to how is has become so successful.:)

Jimandsi
10-10-2011, 14:48
@YG,

As I said in my post #77 to Ecky - "We have a nice regular customer base" and I "am very pleased with the cafe/bar's performance to date".

Of course we want to increase our footfall with the right sort of people, but from what I can see from other threads, I very much doubt whether those sort of people frequent this forum.

So, I suppose that could be my first tip for you to run a successful business YG:- select your target market and stick with it (you don't see Selfridges trying to attract Tesco customers do you ?).

I normally charge for consultancy, but to you YG, that's a freeby. :raspberry:

do you mean that customers that make sweeping statements by calling everyone more or less chavs and try and get a rise out of the other customers will be allowed in your bar, but the nice members of the forum that are the butt of your insults will not?

fair play. wouldnt want to go to that bar anyway. with someone like you in charge itd not really be too nice. i think id rather go for a drink and a singsong with the chavs. anyone fancy it? :D
