If you’re a fan of hosting and socializing, then odds are good that you’ve considered adding a custom bar to your home. Just imagine it: a stylish, classy space packed to the brim with all your favorite beers and liquor (along with a few sodas for the kids) where you can relax and make unforgettable memories with your family and guests. What’s not to love? Regrettably, many homeowners believe that investing in a custom bar for their house is way out of their budget, causing them to turn down this fantastic opportunity to create a new, endless source of entertainment, relaxation and fun. Well, we’ve got some good news for you. A custom home bar doesn’t have to cost you an arm and a leg, especially if you invest in the right contractor.

Here at We Build the Fun Stuff, we take pride in making home improvement projects exciting, simple and affordable. For almost three decades, we’ve been pioneering the fun frontier in homes all across the Twin Cities, creating high-quality home bars, bathrooms, basements, decks, fireplaces, home theaters and more. Regardless of the vision you have for your home, We Build the Fun Stuff has the knowledge and skills to make it a reality without burning a hole in your wallet. Today, we’ll be helping you decide whether a custom bar is the right choice for your home by discussing three huge perks this fantastic addition brings to the table.

1. Home Bars Are Great for Hosting Company

Getting ready to host a few guests or family members for the week? If so, you’ll need to provide a space that allows them to be more comfortable than they would be at a standard hotel. Combined with a nice bath, bedroom and cozy living room, a home bar offers everything your company needs to relax, unwind and enjoy their stay to the fullest. With a touch of creativity, a healthy supply of snacks and a fresh deck of playing cards, you can transform your home bar into a designed entertainment space for guests. Whether your visitors enjoy their nights with nachos and a movie or a few competitive rounds of their favorite card games, your home bar can accommodate them.

2. Home Bars Are Highly Versatile

Tired of trying to find extra space in your home to host guests? Or would you like to spare your peaceful upstairs from the hustle and bustle caused by visiting friends or family? Then a custom home bar might be exactly what you need. For example, if you have your kid’s entire hockey team staying over before a game, you can set them up in the basement and enjoy your nice, quiet upstairs space. Just make sure you stock the bar fridge with plenty of refreshing sodas and keep a few popcorn bags handy. No matter who you have over, a custom bar in your basement will make it easier for them to relax and enjoy themselves without disrupting the people upstairs.

3. A Custom Bar is Perfect for Hosting Big Events

When Super Bowl Sunday rolls around, you’ll need a well-designed, dynamic space to entertain and feed all of your guests. That’s where your custom home bar comes in. On the night before the festivities, you can rework your bar into a perfect space for holding crock pots (packed to the brim with warm chili and all sorts of delicious foods) for your friends and family members. You can also swap out any alcoholic beverages in the fridge with sodas, water and any other drinks your guests prefer. This setup works well when you have the space custom-designed professionally to function well with the patio and media area. Your guests will be able to load up their plates and converse without missing a minute of the big game!
