Rebranding Aging Restaurant, Turnover Customerbase
Our restaurant is in a historic village in new York, the village and our restaurant date back to 1827. There are a few newer restaurants popping up around us lately, and it is attracting more traffic to the area. My family is in the fourth generation in the restaurant business. Obviously the restaurant lends history but is viewed as 'old' and 'dated' we've made some recent renovations, a beautiful three tiered patio, more live music throughout the year, we added for a total of 17 beer taps offering craft and local brews, new carpeting, new bar stools, updated banquet rooms. Hands down our food is some of the best in WNY, fresh homemade; traditional fare with some stunning daily specials for lunch and dinner. We've created Craft Draft Tuesday offering all 17 taps, 20 oz drafts for 5 bucks, on Thursday our entire wine list is offered at half price. Without insulting older and valued clients, how do we send the message that we're not 'your grandmother's eagle house' to encourage a younger demographic to give us an opportunity. I value our older customers as they have brought in generation after generation where we've hosted so many life events for families it's truly incredible from baptisms, rehearsals, communions to showers and funerals. We're a great restaurant where you feel comfortable whether it's a first date or you're meeting friends for a hockey game. How do we get across to the next upcoming generation that we're relevant and if they would stop in, they'd be glad they found us. We are active and interactive on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. I would welcome any suggestions you have to offer, Thank you. our website is www.eaglehouseonline.com if this helps with some background and visualizing
