I Miss My Bar definitely fills a void many have been feeling the last year. If you had a local and are missing it dearly, we recommend you check it out. Even through I was pregnant and not drinking at all when Covid first shut down bars in NYC, I still missed sitting at a bar, reading a book or hanging with my friends. NYC’s bar scene was one of the finest in the world pre-Covid, some of my faves being WXOU Bar in the West Village (which has temporarily closed) Lucky Strike in Soho (which has permanently closed) and Bemelmans Bar for a special occasion (which I hope to visit again when I feel safe enough). Anyway, play around with I Miss My Bar and transport yourself back to simpler times. What bar are you missing most?
Hanging out with friends, deep conversations over Gin & Tonics, meeting great new people, the atmosphere.
Even though these things will never be replaced, at Maverick we’ve made this modern digital artifact to keep you company while this awful pandemic, which profoundly affects our industry throughout the world, finally passes and we can meet again safely.
Plug your device to a decent speaker set and use it as a background sound for your zoom parties, or just for your daily wind down cocktail at home.
