November 2020-April 2021 the industry is coming together.
Starting in November, Bar & Restaurant will travel the country to talk to expert industry operators who are beating the shut-down odds while battling things like irate guests, bad press, and ineffective politicians.

Evolve is complimentary for Owners & Operators in the bar, restaurant and hospitality industry.
