Flanigan's Enterprises

View

Flanigan's Enterprises operates casual dining lounges and package liquor stores mainly in Florida and some Sun Belt states. It began in 1959 as small cocktail lounges and liquor stores and later expanded into larger Big Daddy’s lounges and liquor stores. Since 1987, many lounges were renovated to add full restaurant service, so today they offer alcoholic beverages and a full menu in a relaxed, casual setting, with a high-volume liquor retail arm selling brand-name and private-label products at discount prices. The goal is to grow a broad network of affordable, customer-friendly lounges and liquor stores under one brand, combining liquor retail with dining and focusing on value and a casual experience.
