Houlihan's vs Boscos Franchise Comparison

Houlihan's has been known for exceptional food at an affordable price since we entered the casual dining segment in 1972. Our menu features a great mix of contemporary pop American cooking - classic dishes reinvented in a fresh modern way and brought to the table with simple, stylish plating and presentations. And then there's the bar. It's always the best place to feel the great energy of Houlihan's. Our bar strategy unites pop culture, trendy premium brands, the newest drinks and vendor insights for a winning combination, resulting in an enviable liquor mix.

To help us more quickly expand to new markets and trade areas, Houlihan's is seeking sophisticated restaurant operators with experience building out entire markets. At this time, we are not pursuing single-site franchise agreements.

Our ideal candidate to become a franchise market developer is a successful full-service, multi-unit operator with expertise in one or more large markets (e.g. the top 75 MSAs in the United States). We are seeking entrepreneurial organizations that can thrive in our flexible franchise environment, while having access to growth capital and capital reserves, but experiencing growth constraints with their current restaurant concept(s).

The Restaurant for Beer Lovers

 

If you are looking for top notch service in a comfortable casual atmosphere with a unique and interesting menu, it's got to be Boscos. Our full service restaurant offers a variety of appetizers, salads, entrees and gourmet pizzas baked in our own wood fired oven. Or enjoy a delicious omelet with homemade tasso cheese grits while relaxing during our Sunday Jazz Brunch.

The Boscos signature item, however, is our specialty Bosco's brewed beer - served with pride. Our guest can enjoy a wide selection of regular, seasonal, or cask conditioned beers and even participate in any of our special events including loyalty programs such as mug clubs or beer police, taste-testings, and cask-tappings.

Now with multiple locations in operation, Boscos is looking for professionals who have the skills, background and desire to establish Boscos in other areas of the country. Ideally situated in a centrally-located residential setting, the Boscos concept works in either an inline space or freestanding building, with approximately 7,500 square feet of room and seating for up to 300 guests. A patio for outdoor dining provides added appeal.
