HOUSTON, March 25, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Just in time
for some of the biggest games in college basketball, Bombshells
Restaurant & Bar announced the opening on Wednesday, March 27, of a new location just north
of Houston in Tomball at 24628 State Highway 249, next to
the giant Regal Lone Star Cinemas 19. Bombshells is a subsidiary of
locally based RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RICK).
"We want Bombshells to be the ultimate experience in
Tomball for social dining, sports
viewing, music, food and fun for all ages," said David Simmons, Director of Restaurant
Operations.
Military-themed Bombshells is a next-generation sports bar,
appealing to social diners – a wide multi-generational,
multi-cultural audience, from millennials to baby boomers on up,
interested in going out with friends, families or on dates.
Bombshells features an extensive menu and scratch kitchen, and
full bars with premium brands and craft brews. The restaurants are
open 11AM to 2AM for lunch, happy
hour, dinner and late night. Guests are encouraged to stay and hang
out.
Outside, locations resemble aircraft hangars. Inside, they are
filled with military memorabilia, such as aircraft wings over the
bar. Bombshells 249 features about 8,200 square feet inside; about
2,400 square feet outside on the patio; more than 100 hi-def TVs;
multiple USB charging stations; fast and free Wi-Fi; seating in
excess of 400; and abundant parking.
Veterans and active service members of the U.S. Armed Forces
receive a 20% discount on meals and soft drinks every day and eat
for free on Veteran's Day. Bombshells is community friendly and
community involved, often supporting local children's sports
teams.
Bombshells 249 is part of a plan to expand the chain's profile
in the Houston area. The fourth
and fifth area locations opened in Pearland and on I-10 East in 2018. The seventh
and eighth are expected to open later this spring on the Katy
Freeway in Katy and on US 59 in
southwest Houston. Two existing
locations are in Dallas and
Austin.
The concept was originated by Travis
Reese, EVP of parent RCI. His grandfather piloted more than
100 missions in the Berlin Airlift following World War II. A pilot
himself, Travis envisioned a place reflecting a respect for
military and veterans past and present. Bombshells Girls waitresses
bring to life timeless WW II era pin-up girls from calendars,
posters and paintings on military aircraft.
Bombshells was named to Restaurant Business magazine's
2018 "The Future 50" list of fastest-growing concepts in the
country with annualized sales between $25
million and $50 million. For
