Rutter’s announces new stores with bar and lounge

This design is the latest in a series of updates the Pennsylvania-based retailer has rolled out over the past few years.

Dive Brief:

• Rutter’s will open two new c-stores featuring a 21-and-over bar and lounge this spring, the retailer announced on Tuesday.
  
  
• The 14,000-square-foot stores, located in Johnstown and Milton, Pennsylvania, will feature an extensive array of alcoholic beverages in addition to several TVs and video gaming terminals.
  
  
• Adding a bar is the latest way Rutter’s is taking advantage of its spacious store layouts. The company has been increasing the size of its stores over the past few years to give more room to amenities like foodservice stations and beer caves.
