 Applebee's
is the World's largest Casual Dining restaurant chain with over 1900
restaurants worldwide. Known for its casual atmosphere and diverse
"American" menu, the concept has prospered through a strategic growth plan
and through a commitment to excellence from the parent company, Applebee's
International, and 65 franchise groups. We are Casual Restaurant Concepts,
one of these franchisees, operating Applebee's for the last eleven years
throughout the West Central Florida area surrounding Tampa Bay. We currently
have 30 locations stretching north along the west coast from Bradenton to
Crystal River and east from Clearwater, through Tampa, to Polk County. With
two to three openings a year, we anticipate growth totaling 35
to 40 units within our market.
Applebee's is marketed as a neighborhood
grill & bar. Each Applebee's reflects the neighborhood in which it is
located. The decor further conveys this theme with photographs and
memorabilia highlighting hometown heroes, local schools and area history. A
typical Applebee's unit is approximately 5000 square feet and seats about
220 patrons. Applebee's provides great food, reasonable prices and quality
service in a casual, neighborhood setting. The menu offers a wide range of
choices from appetizers and salads to steak, chicken and ribs. Average guest
check ranges from $9.50 - $13.00. Each restaurant has a central full bar
surrounded by several raised dining areas. Over the years, Applebee's has
become a great late night gathering place in Tampa Bay, since most of our
units are open until 2 a.m. We are also a popular destination for both lunch
and dinner, since we provide fast, friendly service at reasonable prices.
The staff for a typical Applebee's consists of one General Manager, one
Kitchen Manager, three Assistant Managers and approximately 75 hourly
employees.
Applebee's is committed to World Class
Service, not only for the guest, but for each member of our team. We are
looking for dedicated people of the highest integrity who value teamwork,
who are willing to take on the challenges of leadership and change, and who
demonstrate a passion for World-Class Service.
At Casual Restaurant Concepts, we benefit
from the strength of the Applebee's system. With access to the excellent
Training Programs, Marketing Resources, Purchasing Power and Operational
Systems of Applebee's International, our medium sized franchise experiences
all the benefits of a major international corporation. With all our units
contained within an 80 mile radius territory, we also experience the
closeness of a smaller, local company. At Casual Restaurant Concepts, we
know our people and we take great care of them. For employment opportunities
