I'm James Snyder. 5 bars. $30 million in lifetime sales. Millions of customers. Millions of shots poured across Seattle's busiest taverns. At our peak we ran 120 team members.
My dad and his brothers were among the first Red Robin franchisees — they built dozens of locations and helped create the foundation of what Red Robin is today. I grew up in those restaurants before opening my own bars.
Bar Builders Academy is the community I wish existed when I was building.
Free hospitality education from a real operator — no theory, no fluff. Real systems for real bar owners. Operations, labor & COGS, events, team building, site selection, leases, marketing, and profitability.
Pre-open, open and struggling, or ready to scale — you're in the right place.
Join free. Start learning. Build something that lasts.
