Mr Brews Taphouse Taps into Little Rock with First Arkansas Location

This marks the first Arkansas location for the franchise brand. Behind the venture is Andy Patel, President and CEO of Span Holding LLC, with a vision to grow Mr Brews’ footprint across the state. Backed by robust experience in the hospitality industry and a successful track record in hotel development, Mr Brews is a natural addition to Span’s portfolio and a strategic transition into the food and beverage space.

"I feel very blessed to have found as much success as I have in the hotel industry, but I wanted to branch out to different avenues and bring something brand-new to Arkansas," said Andy Patel. "Mr Brews has the vibe nailed down, along with delicious food and a strong sense of community. We can’t wait to share all of that with the residents of Little Rock. Mr Brews is the kind of place that’ll feel like an instant staple to all future fans."

Mr Brews Taphouse offers a relaxed, family-friendly environment with a curated list of local and regional craft beers on tap, along with a menu packed with gourmet burgers, loaded flatbreads and signature favorites like the Brisket Grilled Cheese. Guests can grab a cold one, catch a game, or kick back with tasty food in a relaxing atmosphere.

“We’re fired up to join forces with such a powerhouse partner and bring Mr Brews to Arkansas for the first time,” said Mark Leach, COO of Mr Brews Taphouse. "Andy Patel is exactly the kind of franchisee we love to work with — experienced, passionate and committed to growing alongside the brand."
