The challenge

Tap Room runs nine locations on Long Island, and the calendar never stops: game days, seasonal menus, holidays, catering and loyalty programs all need fresh creative.

The idea

Build one system and feed it constantly: regular menu and LTO shoots, a shared content library, and templates every location can use.
