They even burned the corporate theme in effigy. About 24 hours afterTaffer’s team moved out, the newly named Corporate Bar & Grill went back to their old name- Piratz, and went back to the old concept as well. Rocks went back to being Rocks after Power Plant didn’t feel right. REVERTED! Two of the remaining season two bars went back to their original names after Taffer packed up and left town. The newly renamed Murphy’s Law turned out to be yet another soulless bar created by Taffer down the tubes. Rumor has it that there was also structural damage to the site that simply couldn’t be fixed in 36 hours with a bunch of seemingly crystal meth fueled contractors. It seemed too little too late for the bar to succeed and the owners were forced to shut it down. This fourth bar, JA Murphy’s in Fells Point, Baltimore, went down just under a few months after its rescue. Season two proved to be a tough one for him. He had one night where bottle service wasn’t a train wreck but once he skipped town, the newly minted Aura Nightclub didn’t last much longer. John Taffer came in to clean the place up and get the right clientele in there. Mystique Lounge attracted a bad crowd in West Palm Beach Florida, which ended up turning into shootings outside the club. It didn’t help that the owner let his staff steal from him, which no one can fix in three days time. Taffer stopped the musical performances but if the Yelp reviews are to be believed, the bar went back to its old ways. A year after he worked his magic, it was done. Taffer turned it into Weber’s Rum Bar and Grill.
Weber’s Place was a strip club turned music club in Reseda California that Taffer attempted to work his charms on.
Nevertheless, John Taffer should have realized no one would ever want to get drunk at someplace called “America Live!”. Their landlord locked them out of the bar and a bunch of drama surrounded the bars closing and taping of Bar Rescue, with allegations that partners were selling off their pieces of the business before the show ever taped. Win, Place or Show in Fairfield Ohio got its name changed to the god awful “ America Live!” and lasted 2 and a half months after that. Out of the 10 bars that ended up being featured on season two, four closed, and two others went back to their old lumpy selves. They reduced their hours and closed for summertime, and word on the street is that The Framingham Health Department inspector ordered The Chicken Bone to toss all of its food and identified more than a dozen violations that posed an imminent health hazard. On The Bubble for Season One: The Chicken Bone renamed The Bone in Framingham, MA remain open but struggling. Taffer fixed the bar, but what he really needed to do here was fix the people. It didn’t help that from the look of the episode they both seemed to be sleeping with their bar manager. But the mismanagement of the sisters who ran the place couldn’t be overcome. The pub got a whole new look, and a new name– Breakwall. Kilkenny’s Irish Pub in California was mismanaged straight to hell and Taffer did his best but couldn’t get it done. Philly has lost its premier champagne bar and now they don’t know what to do with themselves.īAR RESCUE FAIL #2: Killkenny’s Irish Pub Actually they changed the name back to Swanky Bubbles almost immediately once Taffer was gone. Within months of Swanky Bubbles getting “rescued” it was closed down. Swanky Bubbles in Philadelphia was remade as Sheer Philly in season one. Two of those bars ended up closing, and one other is struggling. In season one, Taffer visited and rescued ten bars. Here are his Bar Rescue Fails, the ones that Taffer couldn’t save. Not even the man with a Doctorate in what he calls “Bar Science”, the man who is “in the Nightclub Hall of Fame”, and the man who “invented NFL Sunday Ticket”, could save every bar.

Going through every season of the hit Spike TV show, we’ve found Taffer’s failures. Of those 60, 14 have closed and 13 had either changed the rebranded name back or altered it again. So far to date in 3 seasons 60 bars have been ‘rescued’. Yet not all of the bars on Bar Rescue ultimately get saved. Taffer claims he’s a student of “bar science” and that he can turn any business around. The premise is simple enough: long time food and beverage industry consultant Jon Taffer does his best to transform failing trashy bars into slightly more successful trashy bars, all while dealing with less than cooperative owners of the establishments. Spike TV’s Bar Rescue premiered in 2011 and has become a bit of an obsession to anyone that has stumbled across it. QUIZ: Think you know Bar Rescue?
