New Owners Continue Big Goals for Willie’s Lounge, Launching New Website and Upgrading the Space
Willie’s Lounge partners with Elle Marketing and Events to create new, updated website
(PRUnderground) November 26th, 2025

Two years after becoming the new owners of Willie’s Lounge, Michelle and Patrick Mannos continue to invest in the future of the iconic neighborhood dive bar. Under their care, Willie’s Lounge has undergone several upgrades, including a new draft system, refreshed décor, and now, the launch of an updated website.
The improvements are a part of the couple’s dedication to maintaining the bar’s authentic, laid-back vibe, while ensuring the space evolves to improve guests’ experiences. Going forward, they hope to buy the building and strengthen the bar’s position as a cherished community staple, where anyone is welcome to come in, kick it back, and enjoy an array of weekly activities — including pool, trivia, bingo, karaoke, and more.
To support these goals, Willie’s Lounge partnered with the creative marketing agency Elle Marketing and Events to develop a new website, which just launched this fall. The site highlights the activities and specials that Willie’s Lounge offers the community, while creating a more visually engaging and user-friendly experience.
“We were so excited to work with Elle Marketing and Events on this project to create a new website,” Michelle Mannos, co-owner of Willie’s Lounge, “We hope that it helps more people learn more about what we are about, and helps guests navigate our events and drinks with ease. We want everyone to feel welcome to come to Willie’s.”
The new website also features Michelle and Patrick’s story, sharing what inspired them to take over Willie’s Lounge and its sister location Big Willie’s in 2023, and how they remain committed to preserving the fun, relaxed atmosphere that both locations are known for.
