The first thing you have to do is to re-evaluate the money you spend on food. Are you getting the best bulk prices or are you spending money with a vendor who is a friend who is charging more? You may want to re-evaluate the menu as well and get rid of some of the more expensive (your cost) items. For a sports bar in a small town I can't see the need for a huge menu other than some great munchables and maybe burgers unless you have some sort of lunch and dinner crowd.

What about the costs of alocohol? Are your distributors working with you to help maximize consumption/cost? Are you making heavy on the alcohol drinks or using an industry standard shot glass? How many poured drinks are you getting from say a fifth of vodka? Can you raise prices on call drinks say 25 cents?

Finally the big question......Is anyone skimming?
