The 2nd Annual Lucky Beaver Bar & Burger Crowns Golf Tournament held in September raised $50,000 for Ronald McDonald House. The sold-out event was hosted by Lucky Beaver Reno and Lucky Beaver Tahoe locations and took place at the Lakeridge Golf Course. This was no ordinary golf tournament.

“It’s all about people,” said Mike Leeper, co-owner of Lucky Beave and Burger. “I want to thank our sponsors, players and staff at Lucky Beaver for their continued support of our community and our restaurants. We are fortunate to have charities like Ronald McDonald House in our community and it is an honor to have the ability to help out whenever we can.
The team that won the perpetual Lucky Beaver Tournament Cup was the team of Auston Byak, Paul Windt, Cory Tritt and Apolo Poth, with a score of 15 under par. Several sponsors also participated in the tournament to support the cause.
“It was an amazing event!!! I am so proud of our Lucky Beaver Bar & Burger Reno and Tahoe team for all their hard work in producing such an amazing event to support so many families in our area. Ronald Manor McDonald’s is a blessing to our community and we look forward to partnering with them for years to come,” said Lucky Beaver Bar and Burger co-owner Pat Farrah.

Casta’s Rum Bar is coming to Richmond
This fall, Casta’s Rum Bar will open its second location in the lobby of the Hampton Inn & Suites and Homewood Suites by Hilton, formerly Belle’s home (700 E. Main St.).
Casta’s Richmond will feature the same vibrant Cuban vibe as the original Casta’s in Washington D.C.’s Georgetown neighborhood, with glass murals by Richmond artist Hamilton, tropical plants, custom chandeliers, a bright 31-foot bar and an enclosed patio that’s open year-round. A DJ stand will play salsa music.
Menu highlights include empanadas, classic Cuban sandwiches, ceviche, frozen drinks and, of course, an extensive rum selection with over 125 options to choose from. An opening date has yet to be announced, but Casta’s will be open seven days a week from 5 p.m., with brunch on Sundays.

Bob and Jana Graham and Chris Staples are the new owners of Toast in The Village Shopping Center.
Bob and Jana met at Purdue University’s School of Hospitality and Tourism Management and both have had long careers in the restaurant industry. Most recently, Jana was an executive at Starbucks and Bob was an executive at EAT Restaurant Partners.
“We always talked about doing our own thing, but it never materialized,” Bob said. When they met Josh and Jess, it felt like a fit: “We heard their plan for the restaurant in the near future, they were trying to be selective about who they would talk to,” Bob said.

The new owners are looking to focus on streamlining operations, improving service and making small changes to improve the overall dining experience.

FLEMING ISLAND | Corks & Barrels, considered the first of its kind in Clay County, is preparing to open on Fleming Island.
James Henson, who is about to retire after serving 27 years in the United States Navy, owns the tasting-style wine and whiskey bar and lounges at 1824 Town Center Blvd, Suite 101 near East West Parkway.
“Hopefully we will open late next month [October] or early November. It’s a very fluid date. It’s been very difficult to find subcontractors and supplies and things of that nature,” Henson, an aircraft maintenance manager, told The Times-Union last week.
“When I considered opening this one, I knew it would be very popular here because there is no other establishment like ours. We are very unique in our approach,” he said. declared.

The business, Henson said, is one he has considered starting for some time as his military career comes to an end.
“As I got older, my palate got a little more refined,” Henson said. “I’ve always loved good wine and I’ve always loved good whiskey, but I never really thought that was a possible business venture.”
That changed a few years ago when he was on deployment and friends took him to a small wine bar that was “absolutely packed” with customers.
Henson began to think about the possibility of opening a similar establishment. He recalled that one of the biggest complaints he had heard from friends on Fleming Island was that there was no place where their wives could meet for a glass of wine , except for a full-service restaurant or one of their homes.
“I thought so [wine bar] looked like a great concept and thought it would go well on Fleming Island. So when I got home I started planning to open one here,” said Henson, who has lived on Fleming Island since 2011.
As his taste for fine whiskey grew, the idea of also offering a selection of whiskeys paired with wine in a bar filled with comfortable furniture and an inviting casual atmosphere grew.
“People love good wine. Obviously if a wife wanted to come, she could bring her husband and he could enjoy a nice glass of whiskey while his wife enjoyed a nice glass of wine,” Henson said.
The bar will offer a wide range of drinks
Corks & Barrels will have a “substantial stock” of whiskeys and wines for customers to choose from at the bar.
There will be a wide range of wines such as whites, reds and zinfandels.
“On the whiskey side, single malts, single barrels. We’ll have a nice wide range of ryes as well as wheat bourbons,” Henson said.
The wine and whiskey bar has been licensed as a bar and package store so patrons can have a drink there or buy a bottle and take it home.
He intends to feature a different region for wine and whiskey each month. There will be tastings, pairings and charcuterie boards for wines and whiskeys.
In addition to charcuterie boards, there will be dessert platters. It will be light tapas because it’s not a full restaurant, Henson said.
“Eventually we’re hoping to have weekend brunches. We’re trying to see what we can do like mini-brunch platters with sweet waffles and pancakes and things of that nature. Bites,” Henson said. .
The facility will seat approximately 50 in a pod-like seating plan of comfortable sofas and armchairs.
They use jewel tones like deep red for colors, blues, greens and yellows. All are very brightly colored. At night, when they dim the lights, the atmosphere will be like in a wine cellar.
“There aren’t many tables. It’s literally a very close and personal environment where you sit with your friends and enjoy a nice glass of wine or a bottle of wine or a whiskey,” Henson said.

Art Bar co-owner Andy Rodgers likes to compare the lifespan of a bar to that of a dog — bars, like dogs, don’t usually stick around as long as humans tend to.
“Seas live as long as dogs live, you know,” Rodgers said. “It’s like… you know, a bar has been running for 17 or 18 years, that’s a good run for a dog. Thirty years is just crazy, it’s amazing because it’s so out of the norm.
Its longtime Vista watering hole is far from the norm — surviving 30 years of change and growth as one of Columbia’s oldest and weirdest bars.
Art Bar opened on September 18, 1992 when the arts and entertainment district, the Vista, was in its infancy – back then the arts district was very different, according to Vista Guild general manager Abby Anderson. There were only a handful of businesses in the neighborhood, two of them being Art Bar and Motor Supply Company Bistro, two Vista staples.
“The Art Bar is something the rest of Columbia doesn’t have, so it’s very unique that we have it in the Vista,” said Abby Anderson, executive director of the Vista Guild. She called the Art Bar a “unique and funky thing”. that celebrates what Columbia is.
The original owners, Clark Ellefson and Jeff Helsley, decided to open a place unlike anything Columbia had seen. They achieved that goal – bartenders, regulars and former employees alike said the bar is unlike any other in the city, with its quirky decor, friendly staff and laid-back atmosphere.
Thirty years later, the eclectic bar just off rue Gervais attracts everyone, according to bartenders and regulars.
“Art Bar is an open bar for everyone,” said Will Woodward, who has been an on-site bartender for 10 years. “I truly believe anyone can come in and be welcomed as long as they welcome others.”
The bar was one of the first in Colombia at the time to openly and actively welcome members of the LGBTQ community – a decision that often confused it with being a gay bar, so much so that it has for years won ‘best gay bar’. in Colombia in the Free Times Best of Columbia awards.
But it’s a label the owners and staff casually reject, the same way they reject any other label for the bar. From being a spot for older, longtime regulars to attracting more of a younger crowd in recent years, the bar doesn’t fit in a box. And he’s proud of it.
“We didn’t want to be the live music venue, or the dance club or the gay bar. I mean, we wanted to be all of that,” Rodgers said.
The “everything” is honored each evening during the various events of the Art Bar. Mondays are Movie Mockery night, where local comics “make the most of really bad movies.” On Tuesdays, the bar hosts open-mic comedies. Wednesdays are the iconic karaoke night. Thursdays are trivia. Every weekend the bar hosts a range of live music and DJs.
The bar has made changes since its inception. When it first opened, the bar was stocked with a handful of beers and had a microwave in what is now a supply cupboard to heat up bar food. The bar now offers over 80 beers on tap, including craft beers unreleased in the early 90s, and a cooking program led by Steve Gibson.
Bartenders not only had to run the bar, but also keep the songs lined up in the early days before the Art Bar started offering live music and DJs, at a time when there were few venues in the city for alternative and live music.
“At that time, The Whig didn’t exist, Transmission didn’t exist, New Brookland wasn’t where it is now,” Phill Blair said. Art Bar was like the place to go. Blair worked as an on-site doorman in the early 2000s before working and becoming the owner of The Whig, a beloved dive bar on the corner of Gervais and Main.
While much of what became of Art Bar – the unique and welcoming staple right next door to Gervais – was intentional, one aspect of the bar was not – the robots.
The art spot is often referred to as “the robot bar,” Rodgers said. The bar’s logo even features a minimalist robot head outline. But robot-mania was born on a whim.
“The crazy thing is that robots didn’t show up until 10 or 15 years after Art Bar opened and it was luck and kind of luck,” Rodgers said.
Then co-owner Jeff Helsley found someone selling a handful of vintage robots. Helsley and Ellefson bought them, cleaned them up and they became an instant hit with bar patrons.
“People loved them,” Rodgers said. “I don’t think anyone ever really imagined it would be so popular.”
The robots and other artistic decor, the familiar bartenders and the simplicity of the place have been attracting regulars and keeping them coming for decades.
Kerry Johnston has been on site since it opened and now manages the bar’s social media. Johnston came to Columbia for college and said the Art Bar has always been a special place because of its staff and the care it gives to bar patrons.
“I feel safe there,” she said. “I know all of their customers are taken care of… One of their biggest priorities is keeping people safe, so you know as a woman growing up at Columbia, she’s always been a place where I knew I would be safe.

Long Islanders can take a trip back a few decades when the ’90s-themed Nostalgia bar and restaurant opens in Bethpage on September 29. This new venue, which takes over the former One Eye Jacks space, will feature a pop culture explosion that will impact the menu, drinks and decor.
“People feel nostalgic these days and crave simpler times. The 90s were such a happy time. There is something magical about it,” says co-owner Costas Themistocleous, 33.
The 1,200 square foot facility, which contains 100 plus an outdoor back patio, is expected to offer an entertainment station where guests can play Nintendo games at the end of the bar as well as arcade cabinets like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Street Fighter. TVs will show movies, cartoons and sitcoms from the 90s while the walls will show various toys and posters from the decade. There will even be a 90s-themed photo area.
“You can select your favorite 90s background to take a photo,” says Themistocleous. “For example, you can make it look like you’re sitting on the sofa in the living room of ‘Full House’. The photo will be printed behind the bar for free.
Other nostalgic features include a trivial ’90s party on Wednesdays at 6 p.m., as well as old-school telephones set up on the wall at tables with familiar voices at the other end.
“You may pick up and hear messages from SpongeBob SquarePants, The Simpsons, or a 90s sitcom character,” says Themistocleous.
Items on the breakfast, lunch and dinner menu tap into the 90s theme, such as Reptar Bites Fried Mac and Cheese (“Rugrats”), Chubbie’s Famous Burger (“Boy Meets World”) and each pizza is named after a ninja turtle.
Signature drinks include Mambo #5 (tequila, orange juice, lime juice, lemon juice, grapefruit juice, topped with salt and orange slices), The Shermanator (vodka, rum, gin, tequila, peach schnapps, pineapple juice, cranberry juice, garnished with a slice of orange) and Semi-Charmed Ice Cream (vodka, lemonade, sweet and sour mix, club soda, garnished with lemon).
“There will be vodka-infused Jell-O shots based on the Power Rangers colors – red, blue, yellow, pink and green,” says Themistocleous. “We’ll even serve The Simpsons Duff Beer.”
Opening weekend kicks off on September 29 with a DJ Throwback Thursday set featuring strictly 90s music and drink specials. A TGIF dance party will follow the following day, September 30. On October 1, the “DZY AFTR MDNT” event will feature live music composed of “forgotten 80s, 90s and early 2000s songs.” Sunday brunch is served from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on October 2.
Tickets ($25 per day, which includes a drink voucher) for the inaugural festivities go on sale Sept. 15 at 10 a.m. via nostalgiali.com (website launches at noon Sept. 1). There’s also a combo ticket available that includes brunch on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for $85 (includes a voucher for one drink per night).
Nostalgia plans to be open seven days a week (Sunday-Thursday 8am-2am, Friday-Saturday 8am-4am) with a kitchen that stays open until closing; 516-342-1732.

The Clevelander is one of South Beach’s most famous hotels, and of course tourists love it too. But a restaurant owner wants to bring locals back with a new sports bar concept that only true Miamians can enjoy. Deco’s Alex Miranda, who enjoys a cold beer at any bar, has the details.
Ray Finkel? Where am I?
Jim Carrey (as Ace Ventura): “I’m in Psychoville and Finkle is the mayor. Where is Dan Marine?
Relax, Ventura. It’s right here – inside Kush in Clevelander, a new sports bar and restaurant at the iconic Ocean Drive hotel!
Bruce Siegel: “Anyone coming to South Florida, wherever, you know, you gotta stop in Clevelander.”
But sorry, tourists. This CRF graduate wants to take over SoBe.
Matt Kuscher: “It’s a Miami-themed sports bar, and if you’re not from Miami, you probably won’t get it.”
Matt Kuscher is the mastermind behind some of the burgers etc. the most popular and award-winning in Miami, Hialeah and now South Beach.
Alexander: “The vibes are there and the food is always on point.”
Like this bang bang shrimp.
Alexander: “I love seafood, and it hit me today.”
And does anyone else fancy their exclusive Kaptain Kush, brewed by Tank in Doral?
Matt Kuscher: “So right now, because it’s so early, you’re probably the only person in the world drinking this beer.”
Uh, thanks for calling me, Matt.
Matt Kuscher: “And then we also have our version of an Aperol spritz called ‘I Still Call It Joe Robbie’.”
And check out this quote “Cocaine Cowboys” director Billy Corben made famous.
Matt Kuscher: “‘Miami is a sunny place for sleazy people.'”
But why would he say that?
Alex Miranda: “Yeah, we’ll be parking soon. See you later! Two more, please!
And brother, it’s like super Miami here, literally.
Matt Kuscher: “Miami has its own language, and most cities don’t, and I feel like a translator of that language for the rest of the world.”
Through food…
Alexander: “The Kush Cubano, with the fries, the pulled pork. I’m so excited to dig right now.
Alex Miranda: “Yeah, but you’ve already eaten, haven’t you? You’re not that hungry.
Alexandre: “No, I’m really hungry.”
Alex Miranda: “OK, well, I’m hungry, so goodbye.”
But also art.
Matt Kuscher: “I have Kimbo Slice. The Don Shula highway there.
And that…?
Matt Kuscher: “A unique piece by Dan Marino/David Hasselhoff that you will never see anywhere in the world.”
But not so much… Florida.
Alex Miranda: “I know you’re from Florida.”
Matt Kuscher: “Uh, I’m not.”
Alex Miranda: “You are absolutely from Florida.”
Matt Kuscher: “But I’m from Miami, though.”
Alex Miranda: “Good. Miami, Florida?”
Matt Kuscher: “No. Miami-Dade County.
Alex Miranda: “Florida”.
But, with their 20 TVs and even a Pitbull-worthy VIP room, everyone is welcome, even from Florida.
Matt Kuscher: “Just do good things, and do them well, and it’s going to be fine.”

SOUTH DENNIS – What would it take for Cape Codders to return to theaters in huge numbers? Plush reclining seats? Alcoholic beverages in a full bar? Have dinner while they watch? Places you can reserve?
These are all amenities Bill Hanney is betting nearly $1 million on for a phased renovation of 10-screen entertainment theaters to transform the long-running movie theater by this fall into a Mid-Cape outlet hub. for couples, groups of friends and families.
According to his plans, what was a large video game area should become an on-site bar/café, with around 30 seats at tables for people to gather for drinks and food before or after a movie, said Hanney. . Or patrons can order beer, wine, cocktails and food to take with them into the theater, to be set up on their individual trays on the recliners at the location they have pre-booked.
“A theater of destination”
Hanney said he applied for a full liquor license and would bring a machine to mix a variety of cocktails to customers’ specifications, with ID required at a few different stages to purchase. There will also be sound and picture quality improvements in cinemas during the refurbishment, although the existing equipment, he said, is already of superior quality.
“The plan is to become a destination theater. … I want it to be the best theater on Cape Cod,” Hanney said, noting Cape’s central location, ample parking and easy freeway access to its location next to the Patriot Square shopping center on the route 134. “You want to be the best mousetrap in town when you can and that’s what I hope to do with this place.”
National trends
The transformation, and the addition of recliners to the Falmouth Cinema Pub which Hanney also owns, would make these two cinemas the first in Cape Town to join the movie trend of recliners, reserved seating and expanded refreshments. These add-ons had become a staple in Boston and other parts of Massachusetts and across the country before the pandemic shutdowns, with giant movie theater chains AMC Entertainment and Regal Cinemas first announcing multi-year plans for widespread renovations of recliners in 2014.
Global box office receipts in 2021 were still 48% below the average of the past three years before the pandemic, according to media analytics firm Gower Street. Film industry analysts have said giving moviegoers what they can’t get at home, citing reclining seats and dining options in particular, could be key to bringing in people – especially fans. older – to the wards, according to several recent national reports.
“The (movie) industry today has changed a lot, and the pandemic kind of did that to us, which is really unfortunate,” Hanney said. “It taught everyone to look at entertainment in a different way. They all bought the big screen 70-inch TVs and all watched the movies at home. And the movie companies did something that they wanted to do forever” by releasing movies on streaming services.

“They realized movie theaters weren’t a big part of their game plan anymore,” he said.
Hanney noted that the studios have backed off somewhat, but not enough in his view — like when the movies he plays in his theaters are also already available to watch at home. “We were a semi-struggling industry before the pandemic.”
For long supporting his plans, Hanney praises his owners, the Chamberlain family of Dennis, who helped him build the theater complex 30 years ago, and called for him to return after the property was became Hoyt Cinemas for several years. The Chamberlains saw it through the conversion to stadium seating in the mid-2000s and were also “magnificent” and sympathetic owners during the pandemic shutdown, Hanney said. “You couldn’t have a more committed family to Dennis.”
What about recliners?
Falmouth moviegoers will actually see the new recliners first, and refurbishment is expected to begin there by the end of the month, either closing two cinemas at once or briefly closing the entire theatre, Hanney told the week. last. Then the team will likely move to flagship Dennis in September, closing two theaters at once and keeping others open until everything is ready – he hopes – by the busy movie season. vacation.
Adult food and drink was already part of the equation at his Falmouth Cinema Pub until before the pandemic, but Hanney said he was unable to get enough help in the kitchen to let this happen since it reopened. Converting that four-screen theater to recliners and refurbishing the kitchen could cost an additional $400,000, Hanney said.
“What I want to marry there is the cozy movie concept and the full-service concept,” he said, while South Dennis’ menu will feature more pub-style fare.
Hanney also owns Edgartown Cinemas on Martha’s Vineyard, but said he has no plans to add recliners there at this time.
What’s in the other movie theaters
The closest cinema to Cape Town with large reclining seats was the Flagship Premium Cinemas Wareham. That location, however, closed in January when energy company Eversource purchased the Doty Street property. In fact, Hanney purchased hundreds of no longer needed recliners from Wareham to install in his Falmouth cinema.
In the greater area, the AMC Dartmouth Mall 11 theater also offers recliners. The only Massachusetts location where Regal Cinemas, which has movie theaters in Hyannis and Mashpee, offers recliners at its Fenway Theater in Boston, according to its website. Cape Cinema in Dennis has upgraded to seating during the pandemic shutdown, but not to recliners.

There are recliners, however, at some of Hanney’s movie properties in other areas: Before executing that plan on Cape Cod, the part-time Brewster resident similarly remodeled movie theaters as it owns in Leominster and South Kingstown, Rhode Island.
And the changes there have already succeeded in attracting bigger crowds, Hanney said. He admitted he was skeptical of the formula, however, when he first considered it.
Fewer seats, more screenings, same ticket prices
Because recliners are long seats, they take up twice the space of a typical movie theater chair. So the number of people who can see each movie screening should be reduced by about 50%, Hanney said. (However, he initially plans to leave some of the usual seating at some Dennis theaters to accommodate large crowds on rainy summer days.)
South Dennis’ 10 screens now have about 1,500 seats, so with that number nearly halved, Hanney said, he also expects to add more sitting hours — especially for big movies — so that people can make the reservations they want.

“This formula may sound crazy because it sounded like it to me, but you’re spending millions of dollars to cut your seats in half to do twice the business. And that’s what happened,” a he said. “Logic doesn’t apply to this, but every theater that’s done (the change) has done (this kind of business). So who am I to turn the tide?”
Hanney said he was not considering changing prices for customers, which are now $13.75 for an adult ticket.
“We don’t have to change the prices because if you’re the best mousetrap in town, you get everyone. Your increase is in capacity, not price,” Hanney said. “I don’t think with all the competition in the industry with movie companies that you need to make it harder for people to come and see a movie. It has always been an industry that has been affordable for ordinary people.
