Bar Emergency Room

Your venue has a problem. Bring it to us with the figures.

Free first consultation for owners, bar managers, bartenders and enthusiasts: drink cost, stock, drinks list, suppliers, events, the home set-up. Three minutes of your time. We do the consultation, and the report is in your patient file within 48 working hours.

Fill in the first consultation

Your venue's figures are read only by the person who does the consultation.

Who we are

An online wholesaler of bartender equipment. From this year we read the books too.

How it works

Three steps, as at the doctor's

  1. 1

    The first consultation

    You fill in the form: who you are, what venue you have, your figures, where it hurts. If your menu or a price list is to hand, attach them as tests. Three minutes.

  2. 2

    The report

    A person reads the consultation, compares your figures with those of venues like yours and, if needed, asks you for a document. The report arrives in your patient file within 48 working hours.

  3. 3

    The treatment

    Three immediate actions to stop the bleeding at the till: recalculating the drink cost, setting par levels and mapping the losses. Any equipment suggested answers only to a problem the report has found.

Confidentiality

What stays yours

Your venue's figures are seen by the person who does the consultation, and nobody else. We do not pass them on, we do not use them to advertise anything else to you, they go on no list. They sit in your patient file, protected by your account password, and you delete them whenever you want, documents included.

Beyond the catalogue

If you cannot see it on the site, we will find it for you

An undercounter unit in an exact size, an ice machine, a hundred glasses from a range the catalogue does not carry. We work from our suppliers' full price lists: write in the first consultation what you need and by when, and a quote comes back with the delivery date. Bank transfer in advance, invoice, dispatch from Rome.

The treatment

Bar management: three spreadsheets we use ourselves, and three guides

You download them from your patient file after the first consultation. No separate form: anyone who fills in the consultation already has the file.

Excel and Google spreadsheet

Drink cost and GP calculator

Ingredient cost per centilitre, exact measures for each recipe and a margin matrix for the whole drinks list. It includes wastage and a worked example on the Negroni.

Excel and Google spreadsheet

Par levels and purchase log

The formula for setting par levels label by label, a quick stocktake in tenths and automatic supplier orders, with list price rises tracked as soon as they land.

Excel and Google spreadsheet

Operational Diagnosis of the Venue

48 checkpoints across 6 critical areas. To find the invisible losses before they reach the till.

PDF guide

Drink cost in twenty minutes

How to read the value of a bottle, how to get down to the centilitre, where VAT sits, how much wastage to allow. With the Negroni as the example.

PDF guide

Setting par levels once and for all

A quick sweep of the stockroom at the start of the week, stock rotation that holds, and a price history that stops supplier mark-ups.

PDF guide

Cost Architecture of the Cocktail Station

3 technical set-ups for a single or double high-turnover station (entry, pro, high-performance), with tool lists and a costing at real catalogue prices.

After the report

The specialist consultations, with the price written down

The first consultation stays free. If the report says work is needed on your figures, we do it: you request it from your patient file and pay in euros, or with PROBAR Club coins.

ConsultationPriceWith coins
Drinks list made for youThe drinks list built with you, around your sales strategy and your style: sections, drink order, aligned prices, the venue's logo. You get it back as a print-ready PDF and as an editable file. €40 ex VAT 2,000 coins
Drink cost for the whole listUp to 20 recipes costed one by one on your purchase prices: cost per ml, cost of the drink, percentage of the selling price. The spreadsheet stays yours and updates when a price list changes. €99 ex VAT 5,000 coins
Par level managementFor each bottle, the par level and the quantity to reorder, worked out from two weeks of usage and from how much each recipe uses, as a percentage. Reordering becomes a list to copy, not a walk round the stockroom. €99 ex VAT 5,000 coins
Menu engineering with reworked pricesEvery drink placed in its box by sales and margin, with a new price for those that sell a lot and earn little. It includes the drink cost for the list, up to 20 recipes. €149 ex VAT 7,500 coins

It also includes the list of equipment to take for the number of guests you serve. €59 ex VAT 3,000 coins
Operational part of the business planThe equipment plan for the bar counter, the start-up costs, the expected drink cost and how many drinks an hour the bar station can serve. The figures come out ready to put into the document you present. €290 ex VAT euros only

Questions

The questions that always come up

How much does the first consultation cost?

Nothing, for twelve months from launch. After that the templates and the guides stay free; the consultation with a person who reads it and writes the report moves into the Liberty Club.

Do I have to buy anything?

No. A tool appears in the report only if it solves something written in your consultation, with the catalogue price next to it. If it is not needed, it is not there.

Who sees my venue's figures?

The person who does the consultation, and nobody else. The documents sit in your patient file, protected by your account password, and you delete them whenever you want. We do not pass them on and we do not use them to advertise anything else to you.

I am a freelance bartender: what should I charge for an event?

We start from the cost per guest: how many drinks each, what each one costs in ingredients, how many hours of service and how many bar stations you need. Your price list comes out of that, and the quote to send the client is already written.

I am opening: where do I start with the equipment?

From the number of drinks you have to make in an hour. That gives you the bar counter, how many stations, the ice and the tool list, with the start-up costs and the expected drink cost. It is the operational part of the plan, the part we do.
