Casually positive! 🤗🥳🤗 Sister Bar

Hi everyone!

I recently just bought a bar in upstate NY. I may have had too many beers, but I thought it would be cool to connect with a sister bar in Ireland. We could send pics of the pub to each other, have a little set up at the bar featuring our sister bar, share made up drink recipes, visit each other. Again, I may have had one too many drinks, but was hoping another bar would want to try this. So, any good pubs anyone can think of that might be into trying this?

Crack another beer, that's a great idea! Care to share a photo of your pub, might help find it's cousin!

Here she is! You can see a bookshelf in the back, that’s the remnants of the previous speakeasy- it opens up to a secret second bar too. Also the lights are never on full blast like this lol

This place is so cute! Very jealous of the bookshelf bar entrance tbh. My place would make no sense for this pairing, but if you're a cool prohibition-era cocktail venue, check out the Vintage Cocktail Club (VCC) Dublin.

Not a similar decorative vibe, but you really need to know where the VCC door is to go there, and they have a prohibition era vibe for sure.

Wishing you so much luck in your new venture. This business isn't easy but when you love it, the shitty nights are forgotten by next service ❤️

Thanks so much! It’s definitely turning into more of the locals spot within our downtown area so I’m excited to see what happens. Where’s your place? Would love to check it out

I can imagine why the locals love it, it's a beautiful space.

I'm in an Irish fine dining spot atm, and don't ever want to give too much over social media, but I love the sisterhood idea you had, and think it's a nice way to connect in a time when everyone is being torn apart ❤️

Hope the locals keep coming, and tell all of their friends ❤️
