Bombshells Restaurant Cost Comparisons
About Bombshells Restaurant
The first Bombshells opened in March of 2013 in Dallas, quickly becoming
one of the most popular restaurant destinations in the area. There are
now stores in Dallas, Austin, and Houston. Our concept has exceptional
Average Unit Volumes with a strong lunch, happy hour, dinner, and after
dinner entertainment with strong bar business.
The total investment necessary to begin operation of a single Bombshells
Restaurant ranges from $1,731,000 to $2,916,000 for Restaurants
established in connection with converting existing space and $2,231,000
to $3,086,000 for Restaurants that are established by new development
and construction. This amount includes approximately $90,500 to $106,500
that must be paid to the franchisor or their affiliates, depending upon
whether the franchisor requires you to pay the architect training fee
and the audio/visual plan review fee. If you sign a Development
Agreement, you will also pay a development fee equal to the total of
100% of the initial franchise fee for the first Restaurant to be
developed plus 50% of the initial franchise fee for each additional
Restaurant to be developed. The pro rata portion of the development fee
allocable to each Restaurant will be credited against the initial
franchise fee due for that Restaurant.
