About Boscos

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.
