TAKE OUR POLL: Do you tip at counter-serve or drive-through restaurants? How about salons, hairstylists and barbershops? How much do you tip at table-service restaurants and bars? We want to know how the Capital Region feels about tipping. So we're launching a series of polls to find out.

ITS A BAR TAKEOVER!! But… what does that really mean? What does that really do? After orchestrating quite a few over the last few years I would like to explain my racional. I’ve been fortunate to have the platform, confidence and freedom at Proof Drinks to be able to organise these events to support key accounts. It delivers diversity in bars, to first hand see how others work and operate as bartenders learning new techniques. We can bring customer and revenue to a key customer’s venue that may be closed or quiet…absolute key in this climate! We get to build connections with our brand portfolio, making drinks that stand up on a global scale and speak to potential new brand partners. We support customers that have supported our brands through thick or thin as well as climate and staffing challenges. It showcases the talent in bars outside the generalised ‘London circuit’ that wouldn’t normally be put on the radar of the people judging regulated awarding programs. Lastly it’s about the fluid connection between brands and bars something that has been lost through the years but deep in the heart of my passion for the hospitality industry that I have been in most my life. #bartender #hospitalityindustry #drinksindustry

Help us to keep much loved pubs, bars and venues as the heartbeat of High Streets and communities!   As we eagerly anticipate the official start of the EUROs tournament today, which will bring a much welcome boost to our industry, we mustn’t lose sight of the continued pressures the hospitality industry, and Great British Pub, faces. Our sector is among the highest taxed sectors in the economy and Pubs pay up to four times more in business rates – the current 75% relief in England is a short-term lifeline and without an urgent and radical reform to business rates, many more pubs will be at risk of closure.   With the support of the British Pub and Beer Association, Stonegate Group have joined forces with over 80 industry leaders in a pledge to leading political parties for fair recognition of the value our industry adds to the economy and the support we desperately need to continue to do what we do best - invest in our fantastic pubs, bars and venues, invest in our teams, Publicans and Operators, improve and innovate to meet changing consumer taste and demands, and provide the community hubs that are the crucial and often invisible glue that bring people together.   We ask that you share this open letter, signed by over 80 leading pub and brewing companies, with your local Member of Parliament and help have a voice in allowing our sector to thrive again.  https://lnkd.in/eJJcutnt
