BAR DESIGN & LAYOUT

Excerpt: Transform your bar operations with intelligently designed spaces that boost efficiency, staff comfort and profitability while showcasing your unique products.

Description

MGI’s bar design and layout service delivers functional, practical spaces that prioritise operational efficiency without compromising on aesthetics. We understand that every step saved behind a bar translates directly to improved service speed, staff wellbeing and ultimately, increased revenue. Our experienced design team analyses workflow patterns, product placement, and ergonomics to create environments where staff can serve customers with minimal movement and maximum comfort, eliminating unnecessary fatigue and wasted time.

We combine practical considerations with design elements that enhance both the customer experience and your brand presentation. Strategic placement of mirrors, lighting, and product displays not only creates an appealing environment but also contributes to operational efficiency and product upselling opportunities. Our designs accommodate the evolving landscape of hospitality products, with customised storage and display solutions that showcase your unique inventory while maintaining an organised, accessible workspace.

Our Approach

MGI’s approach to bar design balances the science of operational efficiency with the art of hospitality environments. We collaborate closely with clients to understand their unique product offerings, service style and brand vision, rather than imposing generic templates. Our designs incorporate small, cost-effective solutions that deliver significant operational benefits, whilst ensuring compliance with industry regulations. By combining our extensive experience designing the UK’s most successful hospitality venues with your vision, we create spaces that function seamlessly during service and contribute directly to your bottom line.
