The opportunity.

First launched in Atlanta in 2016, Red Phone Booth is a 1920s Prohibition experience designed for ease of operations and replication. Craft cocktails, Neapolitan pizza, premium spirits and fine cigars create multiple revenue opportunities within one concept.

Guests enter through a restored London phone booth. Italian leather, a honey onyx bar, a walk-in humidor, fresh-squeezed cocktail ingredients and hospital-grade air filtration define the experience. A leadership team with decades of hospitality and business experience supports franchise partners.

The brand’s ambition is to expand into new markets while maintaining its standards for cocktails, service and atmosphere.

Training, support and territory.

Dual-phase training: Hands-on instruction at headquarters and on-the-job training at your location, with refresher courses.
Operational support: Ongoing field guidance and staff training focused on consistent, top-quality guest interactions.
Marketing support: Consumer plans for your local market and strategies across the franchise network.
Exclusive territory: A territory includes a population center of 100,000 people. Share your preferred market with the team; existing locations do not establish territory availability.

Who we’re looking for.

Excellent business management abilities
Integrity and a strong work ethic
A courteous, professional and outgoing approach
An understanding of the Red Phone Booth culture
Strong sales and customer service skills
The ability to meet financial requirements

Your role: Manage staff, meet franchise requirements and represent Red Phone Booth to guests and media. The business requires focused day-to-day operations and well-trained staff.

Start the conversation.

Prepare your information. Bring your business and restaurant experience, preferred market, development interests, net worth, cash availability, partner details and financing plan. Development options include 1–3, 3–5 or 5+ units.
Request information. The Franchise Committee reviews preliminary qualifications, the concept, the geographical area and its market strategy. The published process provides for contact within 30 days of receiving an inquiry.
Explore the fit. If you preliminarily qualify and there is mutual interest, the team requests more detail and guides the next steps. Review the applicable disclosure documents and agreements before making a commitment.

An inquiry is not an application and does not obligate either party.
