What inspired you to start this business or what inspired the founders to begin this business? I felt like Rome needed a restaurant truly dedicated to sports and entertainment.

How does your business give back and support the Rome-Floyd community? We frequently sponsor and support our local schools and their sports teams. Being downtown, we like to sponsor and volunteer for local festivals, concerts, and block parties. We continue to support local charities like Ducks Unlimited (wildlife conservation).

Why is it important to you and your business to be a chamber member? I appreciate the knowledge and information provided, the classes and grants, and the opportunity to be a more involved part of the community.

What makes your business stand out amongst the rest? We have won Best Wings & Sports Bar for four consecutive years. We continue to strive to be THE destination location for any sporting event. We believe in prioritizing the guest experience over everything else!

We all know owning/running a business can be hard. What is a recent highlight that shows the hard work is worth it? 
In 2023, I was able to purchase the building we are located in. That really seemed to changed the trajectory of our business. We went from trying to survive year to year to having the ability to project our goals for the next 10-15 years. It’s provided a real sense of long term security.

What is the best business advice that you have ever been given? Try (as best as you can) to only stress about what you can control. Challenges will constantly be thrown at you; fix and manage what you can and always keep moving forward!

What's next for your business? In an effort to continue to grow our business, we are making preparations to remodel our upstairs for expanded use. Stay tuned for future details!
