New hunting-themed QSR concept debuts
March 11, 2010
Hunt Club Subs N Grill, a new outdoor-themed quick-service restaurant franchise, opened its first restaurant on Jacksonville, Fla.'s, southside March 1.
The rustic-style restaurant, featuring a hunting/fishing cabin décor with a fireplace, wooden floors and video screens with outdoor and sports programming, offers a selection of hamburgers, sub sandwiches, hot dogs and beer, in addition to a breakfast menu.
The franchise concept is the first store for the husband-and-wife ownership team of Bo and Violet Lawrence, according to a press release. Bo has more than 15 years experience in developing and owning several nationally known fast casual food franchise operations in Northeast Florida. Violet has a background in advertising/marketing for national companies in Chicago and Atlanta.
"Hunting, fishing and sitting around the hunt camp has been a part of my whole life," Bo said. "So I wanted to create a local place where the whole family can come and enjoy great food and share their outdoor experiences with friends and neighbors."
The tables throughout the restaurant display photos of hunting trips, trophies and catches from friends and families in the Jacksonville area.
The signature menu items include a section called "Wallhangers," an oversized serving of hamburgers, subs and hotdogs. And the signature side is Redneck Fries named for its special Redneck pepper. All hamburgers are made from fresh 100 percent Certified Angus beef instead of frozen beef patties.
In addition to developing the concept into a profitable business, Lawrence plans on using the franchises to help support local and national outdoor conservation groups.
