Hard Talk

If you buy your Spanish Bar in an established area you will

1. Not have to worry too much about somebody copying your idea and opening a bar restaurant doing exactly what you do a few doors away or even next door to you.
2. You will know from the outset the size of your catchment area and it’s social-economic aspect.

If you have really big catchment area and not too much competition; you will be very busy during the summer and have just enough customers to keep you going during the quieter months. Forget December in Spain, as most of your regulars will disappear, visiting family for Christmas.

If you only intend to work 6-7 months a year, which means you have another source of income you can ignore my advice, but if you intend to live on the income from your bar or restaurant, then please regard this post as the most important piece of business advice I have given to date.

We have thousands of apartments and villas around our bar, plus we are very close to a large hotel and we need all that potential to make a good living.
