Rum & Crab and R Bar

Content CreationPhotographySocial Media ManagementVideo EditingWebsite Development
We first partnered with the team behind Rum & Crab Shack when they approached us with the vision of creating a small, cocktail-focused bar located behind the Shack on Fore Street.

From the striking neon red “R” sign in the window display to the carefully curated colour scheme across menus, walls, and social media, we’ve helped bring their identity to life. Our design has played a key role in making the R Bar an inviting, vibrant space that complements the laid-back atmosphere of the Shack.

When we took on managing the social media accounts for both the Shack and the R Bar, we made it a priority to showcase their unique offerings on separate platforms. The Shack is known for its relaxed, local seafood experience that feels right at home by the sea. It’s also famous for its impressive rum selection, boasting over 100 bottles from across the globe, as well as its weekly live music and DJ events that guarantee a good time.

For the R Bar, after a year of exploring its potential, it has truly found its niche as a vibrant hub for live jazz in the area. With a weekly house band playing every Wednesday and Thursday, along with special guests joining in during the busy summer weekends, it has become a key destination for jazz lovers in St Ives. Our social media strategy reflects this transformation, highlighting the R Bar as the go-to venue for live music and unforgettable nights out.

Both the Shack and the R Bar have become the heart of good times in St Ives, and our primary goal has always been to amplify that spirit through social media, heading up the design of their POS and management of their website.

The team at Meor look after our social media for both the Rum & Crab Shack and its ‘little sister’ the R Bar. It is challenging enough running a busy hospitality business without having to think about creating and posting high quality social content regularly. They take that weight off your shoulders through regular creative conversations, keeping your vision at the heart of everything they do, resulting in fantastic marketing for your business.
