Shared Bar Menu for a Gaming Club Network
Shared Bar Menu for a Gaming Club Network
Section titled “Shared Bar Menu for a Gaming Club Network”Bar menu in IZI is configured at each club’s level — there is no central sync. For a network this means managing the menu manually when making changes. The right approach: a documented template + intentional per-club differences.
Menu Structure for a Network
Section titled “Menu Structure for a Network”Base menu — items available at all clubs. This is the network standard: a client at any of your clubs will find familiar items.
Club-extended menu — additional items at a specific club: local suppliers, audience preferences, equipment availability (coffee machine, fryer).
Recommended Base Assortment
Section titled “Recommended Base Assortment”| Category | Base items |
|---|---|
| Energy drinks | Standard brands 0.25 l and 0.5 l |
| Fizzy drinks | Cola, other popular options |
| Water | Still and sparkling |
| Juice | Packaged |
| Hot drinks | Coffee, tea (if equipment available) |
| Snacks | Crisps, nuts, bars |
Extended menu (hot food, cocktails, special items) — only if equipment and staff are available.
Configuring the Menu in IZI CRM
Section titled “Configuring the Menu in IZI CRM”Path: switch to the relevant club → Bar → Menu → Add Item.
For each item fill in:
- Name (use identical names across clubs for consistency)
- Price
- Category
- Photo (optional but improves cashier UX)
Sync between clubs: switch to the second club, repeat the same items. There is no automatic copying.
Bar Pricing
Section titled “Bar Pricing”For clubs in the same city: unified pricing simplifies communication — clients know prices are the same at any of your clubs.
For clubs in different cities or price segments: prices can and should differ. Use a formula from local market average prices, not fixed numbers.
Bar margin: target margin — 60–70%. At a cost price of 0.50/unit, the selling price should be 1.20–1.50 for a healthy margin.
Stock Management
Section titled “Stock Management”Bar stock is tracked per club — one club’s stock doesn’t affect another. When receiving deliveries, record the receipt at each club separately.
Inventory frequency: weekly for an active bar, every two weeks for a small assortment. Stock discrepancies signal either an accounting error or a shortage.
Network Menu Template Document
Section titled “Network Menu Template Document”Create a “Bar Menu — Network Standard” document with a table:
| Item | Base price | Club A | Club B | Club C |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Energy drink 0.5l | £2.50 | £2.50 | £2.20 | N/A |
| Water 0.5l | £1.20 | = base | = base | £1.10 |
| Coffee | £1.80 | £1.80 | N/A | N/A |
Update the document every time the menu changes. This gives a quick overview of what’s available where and at what price without logging into each club’s CRM.

Frequently asked questions
Does the bar menu sync automatically between network clubs?
No. The menu in IZI is configured per club. Use a documented menu template and manually maintain consistency when making updates.
Can bar prices differ between network clubs?
Yes. Bar prices are a per-club setting. A city-centre club may charge more at the bar than a residential-area club. This is normal practice for networks with different price segments.
Can clients pay for bar items with their bonus balance?
Yes, if Automations is configured so bonus balance applies to bar (not just gaming time). This encourages additional bar purchases — the client spends bonuses on drinks.
How do you track bar revenue separately from gaming time?
In IZI analytics, revenue is broken down by category: gaming time, bar, other. Filter by category to view bar revenue separately for each club.
