Tips for decorating your new bar

The bar area is the focal point of any pub. It is usually the first thing that customers see as they walk through the front door, and it is often the place where many visitors spend most of their time.

For this reason, decorating your bar in an eye-catching yet tasteful way is crucial to creating the right atmosphere and making your visitors feel comfortable.

In most pubs, the bar is the part of the building that encapsulates the establishment's character. When you start decorating your bar, you should always keep the pub's overall theme or style at the front of your mind and use this as inspiration.

For example, if you have a traditional, country pub, your bar should feature vintage keepsakes and memorabilia, such as old pewter tankards, classic photos and other rustic items. Likewise, if your pub has a specific theme (e.g. Irish or sports), the bar should always reflect that theme.

Perhaps the most important aspect of any bar is the seating, and just like the rest of the bar's decor, this should reflect the overall theme running through the rest of the pub.

If your pub's dining area uses leather dining chairs, make sure you keep the continuity going and use leather bar stools. Not only does this give your bar a classic, stylish feel, but it also shows customers that you put a lot of thought into your pub's design.

Customers like to see a well-stocked bar when they first walk into a pub, so always ensure that your range of drinks and bar snacks are proudly displayed. The right shelves can transform a bar's appearance and can turn it into a real eye-catching feature.

Again, the style of the shelves should match the rest of the pub's character, but glass-lighted shelves are a classic choice and can perfectly complement both traditional and modern design styles.

Sizes M (40), L (44), XL (48), 2XL (52).HistoryThe most famous Dry Stout in Ireland, and in arguably the world, is Guinness . Arthur Guinness started his stout, or porter as it was then called, business in 1759 using an inheritance of what would be $150 US by today's standards. More incredibly, he signed a 9,000 year lease on a run down brewery now known as St. James Gate in Dublin. The original rent on the lease was about $70 per year and Arthur Guinness sought such long lease to ensure there was always a supply of of the essential resource for brewing stout - water. By 1930, nearly one out of every ten Dublin men depended on the Guinness brewery directly or indirectly to earn their livelihood. In addition, Arthur and his successors set the Guinness -employee standard of living well above local expectations at the time. Wages were between 10% and 20% above the average in Dublin, and paid vacations, free medical care, homes and education were all provided. And to top it off, workers received free Guinness to drink every day. Guinness is a great Irish beer with an intriguing history.
