Kevin and Ramses came to Glossy because they wanted to start a friterie in Bruges, a city which already has a lot of them. The challenge was to create a friterie that would stand out. The two friends left with all the ingredients to make their dream a reality.

During our ideation sessions, it became clear that we needed to make the brand unique in all its experiences. We achieved this through original recipes such as the Veganaise and the Mary of Burgundy. In addition, we chose sustainable Belgian ingredients throughout the menu to emphasise the local character of The Potato Bar in the entire brand story.

After a thorough competitor analysis, it became clear that the numerous friteries in Bruges always offer the same experience to their customers. To make sure that The Potato Bar concept would catch on, it was very important for The Potato Bar to distinguish itself from its competitors by offering a unique experience.

Bruges is annually visited by almost 8 million tourists, who want to taste Belgian culture. At The Potato Bar they can enjoy this quite literally because the brand combines the best of what Belgium has to offer. We found it crucial that the bar not only becomes a tourist attraction, but also that the real Bruges inhabitants can go there for their favourite fries and an original croquette or hamburger.

The logo is inspired by the act of peeling a potato. By working with vintage illustrations in the graphic identity, we created an authentic experience. The colour palette was deliberately kept simple, we chose black, white and brown. We used the brown for the kraft paper because it gives it an artisan feel. As fonts, we chose ‘Akzidenz’ and ‘Gotham’.
