Hey guys,

I've been coming up with an idea for opening a bar. Before I go any further, I know there are how-to's on the internet for this kind of stuff, but I am posting here to get to get more personal information.

Anyways, I've been coming up with this idea of a bar. This bar is the combination of a hookah bar and regular bar. As in, it serves alcohol and hookah. Of course, it is targeted to college students. This leads me to my first question: does this even sound like a good idea? I've never seen this combination before. The closest I've seen is a bar in downtown Wilmington, NC that does both but stops all hookah services at 9PM.

To me, this seems like a profitable idea because bars in college cities tend to be extremely loud and uncomfortable. In order to talk to anyone, you have to yell and scream directly into their ears. This is where my bar would differ. Of course there's the regular bar portion where you'll still hear the loud music (possibly live) and all, but if you want to sit down in a comfortable area and talk to someone or some people, you can walk over to the hookah section where it will be a little bit quieter. The hookah section won't be completely split off from the regular bar section, but it will be far enough away and have enough border to eliminate some sound and keep the smoke from getting to the bar area.

So, if you guys find this idea to be a good one, any helpful tips on the best way to start this would be awesome.
