About Bar Rescue

Bar Rescue aired on Spike (S1–5) / Paramount Network (S6–) (2011–) in a rescue format. We list it here in plain text only: no logos, no title-card artwork, no episode stills. The show name is used to identify which episodes featured which restaurants — nothing on this site is affiliated with or endorsed by any network or production company.

Season and episode facts on this hub were compiled from public sources including the show's Wikipedia article . Facts only — never its wording.

Frequently asked questions

How many Bar Rescue restaurants are still open?

Of the 281 locations we track, 89 are recorded open and 122 are recorded closed as of the dates shown on each page. Another 62 changed name, address or ownership rather than simply closing.

Which states does this show cover?

California, Florida, Nevada, Texas, Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Missouri, Tennessee, Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Ohio, Louisiana, New York, Idaho, Pennsylvania, Utah, Massachusetts, New Mexico, Maryland, Nebraska, Oregon, PR, Washington, Connecticut, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Jersey, and Rhode Island.

How current are these statuses?

Every record shows the date it was last checked and the source it rests on. If you find one that's out of date, tell us — we aim to resolve corrections within about a week and downgrade a page's confidence label rather than leave a disputed claim standing.
