WHO WE ARE

THE LEGEND

In a small town corner tavern, the story of Big Whiskey was born. Only coming in a few times a week, he'd belly up to the bar and say, “I’m only going to have one, so make it a big one.” He was the kind of man who always had the right thing to say at the right time, whether it was a joke, story or toast. For all we know, he could still be sitting in a tavern somewhere, captivating a crowd. To this day we believe that no matter who you are or where you’re from, we’ve all learned a lesson or two from our own Big Whiskey.

MIDWEST BORN

From the moment we opened our doors in downtown Springfield, Missouri in 2006, our founders knew how to build a loyal customer base. By offering top quality, creative food and drinks at the right price, we’ve built a sustainable customer base who come back time and again for our fun, laid-back atmosphere and our rockstar service. Today the emerging food franchise has grown to fourteen locations in four states with several more in the queue.

BY THE NUMBERS

Big Whiskey’s is one of the fastest growing franchises in America thanks to ticket averages that are 30% higher than the average FSR, an AUV of over $5 Million on our standard unit buildout and an EBITDAR that blows away our competitors. We also prioritize versatility in our buildouts for franchisees. We have many successful units in second generation restaurants and have developed plans for nearly any type of restaurant our franchisees desire.
