Strategy
MR MIKES Steakhouse & Bar ® is positioned as a Mid-Scale Casual Dining concept developed primarily in suburban and small town markets. Our stores are freestanding units; typically 5,000 square feet.
Our strong brand identity and excellent reputation throughout Western Canada has allowed the MR MIKES concept to flourish. MR MIKES has experienced tremendous success in all sized markets, from smaller populations that aren’t adequately serviced by a casual steakhouse and bar, to the larger centres where MR MIKES is uniquely positioned as the affordable alternative to other branded Steakhouse concepts.
A large part of MR MIKES success is due to its irreverent steakhouse culture and dual atmosphere experience. Few steakhouses offer two different experiences under one roof. At MR MIKES patrons have the choice of an unpretentious steakhouse for family, friends and business colleagues, or, a separate casual bar with its own exclusive brands of wine and beer.
