Lone Star Rib House and Brews has this week announced a new store location, with the opening of its Geelong store, marking the hospitality chains’ first Victorian venue. The move comes as Lone Star experiences rapid growth amongst current NSW and SA markets. Uday Kumar, comments, “With a background in hospitality, I was personally intrigued by the idea of slow cooked, Texan-style ribs. There is no other venue in Victoria that offers this style of cuisine and I wanted to introduce it to Victorians – and I’m positive they’ll love it!” With years of experience in hospitality, Kumar is a passionate entrepreneur and is committed to exploring new ideas and perspectives, commenting: “I like to keep myself informed about the latest trends and developments and I’m always eager to learn and grow. I believe in the power of positivity and strive to spread it wherever I go.” Lone Star Rib House and Brews currently has 12 locations across NSW and SA, and a further 4 stores across WA and QLD.
Gary Blyton, General Manager and Franchisor at Lone Star Rib House & Brews NSW, VIC, SA, TAS says, despite challenging cost of living circumstances, our franchise footprint has seen remarkable growth over the last 12 months, with the launch of two new venues in South Australia, namely Gilles Plains and Munno Parra. “We have a very loyal customer base, which is testament to the value of our offering, the creativity of our menu and our focus on exceptional customer service which remains consistent throughout each of our franchises. Over the past year we have placed a large focus on delivering an affordable menu, to ensure the brand remains relevant and we’re incredibly excited to be bringing several new stores across the country, and expanding our customer base into additional Victoria locations with another two restaurants coming to Hallet Cove & Hawthorne. It’s an exciting time.”
The brand prides itself on good ol’ fashioned hospitality accompanied by mouth watering food. Signature menu items include Lone Star’s 8-hour slow cooked ribs, Southern Style fried chicken burger, and their Golden Carolina spiced chicken wings.
