The cocktail bar idea is a pre-nightclub venue selling all manner of cocktails - see
www.cocktail.uk.com for a rough idea. There would be various promos - design your own cocktail, mammoth-sized cocktails - and proper cocktail barmen with all the tricks, scantily dressed young female waitresses, and as the town I live in consists mainly of students/holidaymakers I know the market would appreciate. There is nothing quite like it already in existence, just a lot of style-bars, upper-class eateries and nightclubs. It fits the town, the time, the tune, perfectly. It's an idea I've had for at least 3 years just never had the funding, or the confidence. My town is becoming more and more of a holiday resort with hen/stag nights, strip clubs, beach-side bars etc etc. This is the ideal time to capitalise. I am more and more drawn to this idea - might save the self-build project for when I have more time/security.
