Company History

Take Five Sports Bar and Grill was founded two years ago by Joseph Smith to capitalize on the ever growing market demand for high end technology enhanced sports theme restaurants. Take Five has promoted its brand through the operation of its existing location at Medlock Bridge Road and State Bridge Road in Anytown, Georgia. The flagship location provides a unique dining and entertainment experience in a high-energy environment. Customer acceptance has been proven. Regular and repeat customers cross many age demographics and families are frequent diners.

Take Five has promoted heavily with tie-ins to Anytown professional teams and celebrities. Take Five Sports Bar and Grill is the radio home for the live Monday Night XYZ Anytown Falcons coaches show featuring June Jones and Jeff George. This show is broadcast during the hour preceding the telecast of "Monday Night Football". In addition, Take Five hosts the Anytown Hawks sports talk show on ABC 750 AM featuring guard Steve Smith and the radio voice of the Hawks, Steve Holman. The Anytown Braves celebrated their World Series championship party at Take Five the night they won the Series.
