Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill is a restaurant chain inspired by the country music singer Toby Keith and founded by Boomtown Entertainment. The bar is named after Keith's 2003 single "I Love This Bar", which was taken from his eighth studio album Shock'n Y'all.
Toby Keith's Bar & Grill locations operate as full-service restaurants with large bars in the shape of guitars. They primarily serve American cuisine, especially Southern food. The bars regularly have live musical entertainment from local performers without a cover charge. During his lifetime, Keith himself made surprise visits to franchises, where he performed and socialized with fans.
Later, new restaurants were opened as a franchise under Scottsdale, Arizona-based Capri Restaurant Group Enterprises LLC, owned by Frank Capri, which purchased the master license agreement to build more Toby Keith restaurants nationwide.
The franchise collapsed through the 2010s. By 2020, lawsuits across the country had resulted in Capri and his companies being ordered to pay tens of millions of dollars in civil judgements. Capri was revealed to be an ex-mobster who used the Toby Keith-branded restaurants, along with Rascal Flatts-branded restaurants, to defraud developers.
After the closures and following the death of Toby Keith in 2024, only two locations remain open, neither owned by Boomtown Entertainment. Both are located in Oklahoma and are operated by Hal Smith Restaurant Group.
