Good Times on Tap for Washington as Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery Expands

Nationwide Pub & Eatery to Introduce 4 New Pubs to Seattle and Beyond

TEMPE, Ariz. - October 27, 2015 - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Authentic pub fare and craft beer with a side of sexy servers is growing their presence throughout the Pacific Northwest. Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery, a sports pub that pays homage to the old public houses of America, England, Scotland and Ireland, is pleased to announce the introduction of four new pubs in Washington State, over the coming years. After growing the brand’s presence on the East Coast and in the Midwest, this is the first development push for Tilted Kilt in Washington.

The new Tilted Kilt pubs will open under the leadership of Wes Harris, Area Developer and multi-unit franchisee. After visiting the first Tilted Kilt in Las Vegas, Harris was hooked on the brand. In the past year and a half, Harris has opened two successful pubs in Boise, Idaho and Tucson, Ariz. Building on the momentum of his recent openings, he is now tasked with introducing the growing entertainment restaurant to the Pacific Northwest.

“With an intimate knowledge of both the Tilted Kilt brand and the landscape of the entertainment restaurant industry, my development team is primed and poised to grow in the region,” said Harris. “With open territories from Seattle to Olympia to the Tri Cities, I am eagerly seeking local community and business leaders to bring this growing entertainment restaurant to their part of the state that is densely populated with our ideal customer base.”

Targeted development areas in Washington, in which Harris is actively seeking franchise partners, include Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia and the Tri Cities. Harris notes that the strong Seahawks, Sounders FC and Mariners fan bases in the area make it an extremely desirable growth market for Tilted Kilt. Already working toward the goal of four locations, Harris is actively searching for real estate throughout Washington. The first pub should bust on to the scene in fall 2016.

“The Seattle metropolitan area is one of the fastest growing cities in America, both in population and new businesses, making now an ideal time for Tilted Kilt to expand in the area,” said Mark Hanby, vice president of franchise development. “It also helps that Seattle is home to some of the greatest sports fans in the Northwest. I am confident in Wes’ ability to grow the Tilted Kilt brand, expanding our footprint throughout key cities in Washington. He is prepared to go full court press in Seattle and beyond.”

With more than 100 locations open across the United States and Canada, the Tilted Kilt boasts sexy servers, classic Celtic décor, traditional pub fare and sports all under one roof. The architectural features at every location remind guests they are in a classy establishment. Dark mahogany wood fills the bar and the stained glass doors and wainscoting add to the charm. Combined with pool tables, dart boards and large plasma TVs, Tilted Kilt is the best place to watch sports and hang out with friends. Humorous and slightly bawdy limericks are even seen throughout the pub, creating an atmosphere that is fun and entertaining.
