Spice up Tailgating, Taco Tuesday & Happy Hour with These Tips
So long summer… Get ready for a fantastic fall! This is the perfect season to stockpile on summer savings, while prepping for busy – and profitable – shifts at your restaurant or food truck, thanks to the start of college football and the NFL season, the latest trek to a different Taco Tuesday or another epic Happy Hour. It’s all included in our Day Party Planning Guide!
Want to attract spirited locals to your food establishment? Create a party atmosphere. Remember: sports is more than the game. It’s an excuse to socialize, get out the house, stop somewhere friendly on the way home. While Fandemonium does keep some fans in front of big-screen TVs for hours, other patrons enjoy socializing, food and libations as much as touchdowns, tackles and sacks.

So hang (the right!) football banners, play complementary music (including fight songs) and transform your spot into a friendly, inviting place that encourages conversations, networking and of course… team spirit!

Just as important: supply your staff with equipment that keeps the food tasty and frozen beverages chilled. These in-stock items are must-haves that you don’t want to miss at ACityDiscount:

3 FAMOUS DRINKING QUOTES
“I drink to make other people more interesting.” - Ernest Hemingway
“There’s a support group for that. It’s called EVERYBODY, and they meet at the bar.” - Drew Carey
“Do you drink?” “Of course, I just said I was a writer.” - Stephen King
6 oz Popcorn Machine
Popcorn Machines
Popcorn is the perfect appetizer for the weekend sports fan. It’s a finger food, which is perfect because fans need their hands ready to signal touchdowns and dismiss bad calls. It's a great freebie for sports lounges because of its price.
The unit’s size allows restaurant staff to stay ahead of the popcorn demand and keep up with paid menu orders in the kitchen. So get ready to pop, pop... pop away!
No matter the temperature, coffee drinkers want their coffee - from Espresso and Cafe con leche to Mocha, Americano and Irish coffee. Daily consumption of coffee has increased in America, according to the National Coffee Association. A 2017 report showed that 62 percent of more than 3,000 people participating in an online survey said they consumed coffee the previous day – an increase from 57 percent in 2016. So give it to them in style. West Bend’s commercial urn can brew one cup in less than 60 seconds.
Overall, it can brew 40-100 cups, which is ideal when coffee is in high demand. No filter is needed. Its features include a two-way, no-drip faucet.
Even in the fall, these patrons love the outdoor patios and rooftops. So create a comfortable setting, convincing them to stay longer. The perfect compliment? A portable bar.
Portable bars add the convenience of an extra bar within footsteps of patrons. ACityDiscount provides a wide range of durable all-weather bars suitable for poolside, deck or rooftop gatherings.
