New cocktail bar geared to Lizards set to open
Our fine colleague Mark Fisher has written about a new downtown Dayton bar that is just days away from opening that has the Lounge Lizards very, very excited.
SideBar, which is scheduled to open Thursday, Aug. 28, in the First National Plaza at 130 W. Second St. in downtown Dayton has a cocktail menu that according to Mark, “aims high.”
Mark writes, “Michael Rubel, who is crafting the drinks list, says SideBar will take “an artisanal approach to bartending,” eschewing premade mixes and syrups in favor of house-made bitters, grenadine syrup, ginger syrup and other ingredients. Order a Manhattan here, Rubel says, and you’ll get one made with rye, not bourbon, with a dash of bitters and imported Maraschino cherries, Rubel said. There will even be multiple kinds of ice, Rubel said.”
For much, much more on the new location, owner, hours, menu read the full story from Mark here.
One thing we know for certain: We know where we’ll be this Thursday ….
