How to open your first bar — what to know about landlords, money and more

  • Summary

  • This episode is a recording of a live interview with four top bar operators I held back in June at the Better Bars Summit during Bartenders’ Weekender in Brisbane. On the panel: Stefano Catino (Maybe Group and five time World's 50 Best Bars stalwart, Maybe Sammy), Martin Lange (Cobbler, Death & Taxes, Dr Gimlette, Antico), and Dani and Oska Whitehart (Bar Bellamy).

    The panel discusses their experiences and motivations for opening their own bars. They talk about their age and experience when they first opened their bars, the challenges they faced, and the importance of creative control and owning their mistakes. They also discuss the importance of location and concept, the role of landlords and leases, and the financial aspects of opening a bar. The panel emphasises the need for research, planning, and seeking help from mentors and professionals.
