THE FACE OF
NIGHTLIFE
Jeff Rogers, Rogers Concepts When it comes to fun in the 405, plenty of partiers head to Bricktown to visit the Pink Parrot, Glam Nightclub, Dream Nightclub or Cake Nightclub. And although they’re four different clubs, the proprietor behind the party at each of those venues is the same: Jeff Rogers of Rogers Concepts. “I learned the bar and nightclub industry from the ground up,” Rogers says. “I paid my dues doing anything from cleaning toilets to being a VIP host. You name it, I’ve done it. It wasn’t until 2010, when I became part owner of CityWalk, that I found my passion in creation. Since then, I have partnered up and ventured into the restaurant business with like-minded individuals that have become great friends.” Party spots aren’t his only forté, as Rogers has expanded his portfolio to include the restaurants Tipsy Tiki on the canal, Rock and Roll Pizza Joint and, in the Wilshire Gun Club, the Range Café-Caliber Club. While operating clubs and restaurants in an entertainment district can be tough, Rogers credits his staff for much of his success. “The heart of every successful business is having trustworthy, driven members on your team. My management team hustles to create a happy work atmosphere, and that allows my staff to focus on one of our main pillars, which is delivering a great guest experience. Together, we provide a culture where there is growth, and plenty of room for individual success.” Finally, although the atmosphere may be different at every Rogers Concept venue, Rogers makes sure that fun is at the top of every menu. “My main goal is to create vibes for all different types of people.” he says. “I love creating new concepts and watching all the moving parts come together, but the real pay-off is creating a safe, unforgettable experience for everyone.” (l to r) Chris Byram, Christopher Bridges, Rich Taylor and Jeff Rogers
