Disclaimer: Revenue is mixed-beverage gross receipts from the Texas Comptroller — it does not include cash income like door charges, game machines, merchandise, or event rentals (which can add 10–25% for nightclubs). Cost ratios are industry benchmarks for Texas MB-permit bars. Rent is estimated from submarket comps; property tax is from county public records pro-rated by square footage. Actual profit depends on lease terms, staffing, owner salary, and one-time costs.

If you're buying the whole restaurant, not just the bar program

We estimate this restaurant / bar pulls $464,347–$835,824/yr in total revenue (your liquor portion of $208,956 is roughly 25–45% of the total per industry benchmarks).
