Mr Brews Taphouse franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: Mr Brews Taphouse does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for Mr Brews Taphouse — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing (42% of food & beverage franchisors in our corpus do disclose); the fees, litigation and outlet churn Mr Brews Taphouse's FDD does contain are on this page. For brands that put earnings on paper, see Food & beverage franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings.
Mr Brews Taphouse lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
We do not publish a litigation answer for Mr Brews Taphouse. Item 3 could not be read reliably from this particular filing, and a claim that a company has no legal history is not one to make on a failed parse — so we say we do not know instead. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check; the methodology page explains what we do and do not machine-read.
Mr Brews Taphouse closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Mr Brews Taphouse will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Mr Brews Taphouse's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a food & beverage of this kind.
The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Mr Brews Taphouse's outlet tables did not machine-read cleanly; Item 20 of the source FDD has them.
Who owns Mr Brews Taphouse?
Mr Brews Taphouse's franchise is offered by Mr Brews Taphouse International, LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at WI DFI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.

Anyone weighing Mr Brews Taphouse is really weighing it against the other brands their money could go into. These are the closest by total initial investment (FDD Item 7), each with its own FDD-based page.
