Pints & Quarts

What Pints & Quarts does

Pints & Quarts is an independently owned, single-location bar and restaurant operating at 313 Main Avenue in historic downtown Brookings, South Dakota. The establishment serves American bar fare led by a burger-focused food menu (appetizers, smash burgers, sandwiches, wings, shrimp tacos, daily specials) alongside a broad beverage program covering beer, bourbon, tequila, cocktails (including signature items such as Kristi's Cosmo and a smoked old fashioned), and other spirits. Operating hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 11:00 AM to 10:00 PM, and the venue accepts phone-based reservations in addition to walk-in dining.

The business runs on a third-party technology stack rather than any proprietary platform. The website and digital marketing infrastructure are provided by SpotHopper (web design, social media integration, email newsletter), and the digital ordering channel for food pickup and delivery is operated through ChowNow. No mobile app, API, or proprietary software product is offered, and the company does not develop its own technology. There is no evidence of in-house engineering, data infrastructure, or AI/ML capabilities.

Pints & Quarts generates revenue entirely through transaction-based on-premise food and beverage sales and ChowNow-mediated pickup and delivery orders. Pricing is per-item and menu-level pricing is not publicly disclosed on the website. The customer base is the local Brookings community plus visitors to historic downtown, with marketing conducted through the website, Facebook, Google Business listing, and email newsletter. There is no B2B channel, no franchise or multi-unit footprint, no disclosed funding, and no parent company.
