(Photo by Julie C. Clemes)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MANITOU BEACH \u2014\u00a0The Boot Jack Tavern in Manitou Beach isn\u2019t Johnnie DeAngelis\u2019 first bar \u2014 or even his first in the Lenawee County area.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;DeAngelis bought the Boot Jack Tavern on July 23. He started working in the bar and restaurant business in 2008.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also owns 12 other bars, including ones in Clinton, Brooklyn, Hanover, Onsted and, soon, Riga.&nbsp; Other locations include St. Ignace and the metro Detroit area. The Boot Jack Tavern is the only location that he operates with a business partner \u2014 James Olson, who is the son of his best friend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI never wanted a bar,\u201d DeAngelis recalled of his entry into the business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI wanted to learn how to play pool, so I bought a bar,\u201d he continued. \u201cBut I couldn\u2019t even touch a pool table for three years after I bought my first bar.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DeAngelis has added some new menu items already and plans on a bigger menu change in the near future. Part of the plan is to add some \u201chome-style cooking\u201d meals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe kept a lot of the items that people like,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019ve put on some new items that are going to be on the new menu.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe added steaks, a pork chop dinner and a smothered chicken breast specials,\u201d he added. \u201cWe\u2019re going to unveil an entire new menu shortly.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Changes are also on the way for the tavern building itself. DeAngelis plans to add five new TVs, as well as turning the existing patio into a 1,100-square-foot game room with additional seating, adding a new screened-in patio area, and possibly a rooftop bar.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp; Buying the Boot Jack Tavern is part of a bigger picture for DeAngelis. He said that the more food contracts he has, the more affordable he can make menu items.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Manitou Beach location isn\u2019t too far from Johnnie\u2019s Bar &amp; Grill in Onsted or Shady\u2019s Tap Room in Brooklyn, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having more locations also helps with flexibility with staffing between locations, he said. DeAngelis employs 12 people at the Boot Jack Tavern and 165 across all of his operations. He credits much of his business success to his many long-term employees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DeAngelis said that cleanliness and consistency are what he strives for in his bars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe run a pretty clean operation,\u201d he said. \u201cThe food ingredients we use and the food we buy are top-notch.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe try to focus on consistency,\u201d he continued. \u201cIf you like it or don\u2019t like, it should be the same every single time.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Boot Jack Tavern is located at 735 Manitou Beach Road in Manitou Beach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hours are Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., and Sunday, Wednesday and Thursday from 11 a.m. until 10 p.m.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More information, including the menu, can be found on the website at <a href=\"https:\/\/bootjacktavern.com\/\">bootjacktavern.com<\/a> or on Facebook at <a href=\"https:\/\/facebook.com\/bootjacktavern\">facebook.com\/bootjacktavern<\/a>.
