200+ Best Sports Bar Slogans and Taglines (My Ultimate List)

If you own, operate, or manage a sports bar, you’ll need find ways to out-market local and franchise competitors like Buffalo Wild Wings. Even if you serve the best drinks, cook the finest bar food, games, or offer the widest variety of games, if no one knows about it… you could still go out of business. Bottom line, you’ll still need to generate interest in your watering hole.

An effective way to accomplish this goal is to have a tagline, often used interchangeably with a slogan. According to branding specialist Alina Wheeler in her book Designing Brand Identity: An Essential Guide for the Whole Branding Team, a tagline is a short phrase that defines a business’s essence, personality, goal, or positioning as well as differentiates the business from its competitors. A tagline explains to your customer what your business is—the essence of your business’s existence.

If you need a sports bar or pub slogan to promote your business, I’ve gathered together more than 200 name ideas. Feel free to use any of these on a billboard or social media marketing campaign.

Bar Taglines Examples You Can Fit on a Sign

A bartender at work.

You would definitely want to tell the world the amazing story or idea behind your bar. But there’s just one problem: writing entire sentences that would encapsulate your vision won’t fit on your sign or displays.

Keep your tagline simple and concise. People won’t be able to remember long marketing messages. As an example, McDonald’s used the short tagline “I’m Loving It.” for years to promote the business.
Make sure your tagline revolves around your objective. The tagline should connect to the beer, wine and mixed drinks you’re selling.
Focus on your unique selling factor.
Consider your target market. For example, if your patrons are mostly men, you need taglines that evoke masculinity, toughness, and male humor.
Let potential customers know what’s in store for them. Tell a story when possible.
Utilize humor. People love to laugh.
Use pop culture to inject a sense of familiarity.
Avoid hard selling. People find it annoying when businesses push their products or services to their faces.
Take advantage of double takes. A double take is a delayed reaction to a surprising phrase after a person’s initial failure to notice anything unusual.

Well-composed taglines don’t just attract customers. Taglines actually represent a lot of things—your business’s mission, vision, values, image, and branding. Make taglines part of your business goals.

Many people use the words “taglines” and “slogans” interchangeably. While these seem similar, there are differences between the two. Technically, a tagline is a representation of your brand. For example, Apple has utilized the tagline “Think Differently” to represent that they’re a company that is on the forefront of computer technology.

On the other hand, a slogan is a representation of a specific product, service, or ad campaign. For example, Apple’s MacBook Pro uses the slogan “A touch of genius” to convey the product’s revolutionary innovation and superb functionalities. But for the purpose of this article, let’s use “tagline” and “slogan” interchangeably. Whatever tagline you decide to use in a sports bar, I’m raising my glass to you!
