The full story

Everything to know about Taverns

Taverns, also known as Taverns-To-Go, builds and delivers custom wooden backyard bars designed to bring pub-style entertaining home. Founders Enda Crowley and Paul Convey, who tie the brand to Irish craftsmanship while building in the USA, started the company during the pandemic in 2020 when outdoor gathering space suddenly mattered. The bars come in a range of sizes and styles, arrive ready for relatively quick assembly, and turn an ordinary backyard into a social hub.

Crowley and Convey came to Season 16 asking for 400,000 dollars for 10 percent. The pitch impressed the room enough to earn a standing ovation, and Lori Greiner made the deal, closing at 400,000 dollars for 15 percent plus a per-bar royalty until she recoups her investment with a return. The founders accepted, gaining Greiner's retail and marketing expertise for a product that carries a high ticket price and real delivery logistics.

Taverns stood out because it sold an experience, not just a structure, and because the founders had already turned a simple idea into millions in sales before walking in. The premium price point and the sheer visual appeal of a finished backyard bar made it memorable, and Lori Greiner, known for products that sell themselves, was a natural fit to help scale a brand built on aspiration and backyard entertaining.

Where Taverns is now

Coming into the tank the company had already built up multiple millions in lifetime sales since 2020 and was projecting continued growth. The Shark Tank exposure and Lori Greiner's involvement added national visibility to a product that previously spread largely by word of mouth and the eye-catching look of an installed bar. The founders pointed to strong momentum and ambitious sales goals during and after the show.

As of 2026 Taverns is still operating and selling. The company has expanded its lineup to multiple bar sizes, from small to extra-large models, and grown its operations with facilities in several states to handle building and delivery across the country. It continues to market the bars as premium backyard centerpieces, leaning on its craftsmanship story and the post-show boost from its Shark Tank deal.
