Halloween is a time of year when people are looking for thrills, chills, and a little bit of magic. For bars and pubs, this presents a unique opportunity to create a spine-tingling atmosphere and offer customers a memorable night out. The perfect night requires focusing on the little things. So, you’ll need the menu, theme, and utensils to match. Beaumont’s skull strainers and garnish picks have got you covered for the latter!
A good Halloween night starts with decorations. Create an atmosphere with spooky, yet tasteful, decorations. Think cobwebs, black candles, carved pumpkins, and eerie lighting. Adding themed tableware and props can make a big difference. You could even encourage your staff to dress up. Tiki mugs can also add a creepy touch.
Create a special Halloween-themed drinks menu with spooky and creative cocktails. Be sure to offer non-alcoholic options for designated drivers and those who prefer them. Also, take the opportunity to update your food menu with Halloween-inspired dishes. Offer special appetisers, main courses, and desserts that fit the theme. You can even give them fun names to add to the experience.
It’s a great idea to get creative with your advertising and decorate your menus too. Our blackboards and coloured chalk pens are perfect for you to advertise your themed menu with spiders crawling all over it (use your imagination!). Our peg boards and red lettering would also do the trick!
Halloween is a great opportunity to make your location stand out. It’s worth spending the time creating a spooktacular night that will keep guests coming back year after year. So, put on your creative cap and get ready to brew up a cauldron of Halloween fun!
