Add a Bar to a Venue

As a Host, I want to add a new bar to my venue, so that I can manage the different physical locations where I serve drinks within that venue.

Acceptance Criteria

Given I have an existing venue
When I want to add a new bar to that venue
Then I can provide the bar’s Name (e.g., “Main Bar”, “Kitchen Counter Bar”)
And I can optionally provide a Description of the bar (e.g., “Main bar with full service”, “Small bar in the kitchen”)
And I can optionally specify Features that describe the bar’s capabilities (e.g., “Full Service”, “Wine Bar”, “Coffee Station”)
And the system records the bar within the venue
And the new bar is immediately available for use in:
- Bar setups for events (bars can be inferred from event’s venue)
- Inventory location assignments

✅ UI AND MOCK DATA IMPLEMENTED (December 2025)

UI Components:

Data Layer:

Files Modified:

shaker/app/(tabs)/venues/[id].tsx - Venue detail screen with add bar functionality
shaker/data/venues/index.ts - Added Bar.features and addBarToVenue function
shaker/graphql/mutations/AddBar.graphql - Updated to include features

Next Steps:

Integrate with GraphQL backend when AddBar mutation is available
Replace mock data function call with actual GraphQL mutation
Add error handling for backend failures
⚠️ Bar Setup Integration: Currently bar setups require manual bar name entry. Consider adding a bar picker to select from venue’s bars when creating bar setups. Note: Recipes don’t need bar assignment - menus are defined for events, and events occur at venues with bars, so the bar relationship is inferred.

Audit Status: See Add Bar Audit for detailed implementation review (January 2025)
