How Two Restaurants Packed Their Bars with Fries and Martini Happy Hour Deals
I love a good martini. And who doesn’t love crispy French fries? Recently, I visited two restaurants that offered irresistible happy hour promotions combining both — and the results were impressive.
Restaurant 1: The Adult Happy Meal DealThis spot offered an adult happy meal featuring a burger, fries, and martini at a special price. The concept brought in a steady crowd, making it a go-to destination for those seeking a fun and elevated twist on comfort food.
Restaurant 2: Bottomless Fries with a Martini The second restaurant served bottomless fries when you ordered a martini. Who could resist that? The bar was packed with people taking advantage of this delicious combo.
Both promotions were a hit and packed the bars, proving that giving customers exactly what they want — in this case, great martinis and delicious fries — is a surefire way to draw in new guests.
Want to Try a Fries and Martini Happy Hour at Your Restaurant? Here’s What You Need to Know:
Quality Matters: If you want to impress, make sure your martinis are ice-cold and perfectly crafted, and your fries are hot, crispy, and fresh. This is how people will judge your restaurant, so the quality must be top-notch.
Promote Everywhere: Once your promotion is in place, make sure everyone knows about it. Create fun videos of bartenders crafting martinis and serving up steaming hot fries. Use these visuals on your social media, in email campaigns, and with in-store signage like table toppers. You can even feature the special on your digital menu boards.
Test the Waters: Give yourself a few weeks to see if the promotion fills your bar with new customers. If it works, keep it going and consider expanding your happy hour specials.
