Then how about Bar Sinister?

I think it’s Russian for three. I might be wrong. Even if it isn’t Russian it still sounds like three (with the “tr” part).
Is that the “Bar None” in Tampa/Ybor??? And is this new place going to be in Tampa?
O
Vidi Vici Veni!
You realize, of course, that a proper Tequila Mockingbird is just a shot of tequila with half an ounce of birdseed on the bottom…right? I actually served one once–the joker’s friends made him drink it. He couldn’t believe I actually had birdseed on hand.
If I owned a bar, I would (after checking with Spider Robinson) call it “Callahan’s”–never mind that I’ve never even met anyone named Callahan.
For an artsy bar, how about “Bar Noir” and do all the decor in black and white (or shades of gray)?
Just for the record, I LOVE ‘Bar Sinister’ and if I ever own a bar I’m stealing your idea, Icefalcon.
Reading “chill-out space” made me think that was a good name. “Clientle” works for me too. Tape your discussions and then look at the words you used.
No need to steal, it’s freely given. Just hurry up, I could use a beer.
You can copy Family Guy and name it Ye Old Pube
Just a thought…

Ubar Alles (or Ubar for short)
Vinutae
The Red Lion (famous Whitehall St. pub in London)
Grapes & Grain (name of a liquir store I once saw)
Sine qua non (legal term meaning a requisite condition)
Ohh…Another idea!
The Vending Machine!
and underneath the sign, you could have another, smaller sign, saying:
“Notice: All money removed from this machine daily.”
just my thought.
BarF? Maybe pronounce it ‘bar f’, so people don’t get sickened by the name?
Well, that’s what usually happens after I enjoy myself waaaay too much at a bar.
Or a phonetic spelling like /bâh/ … ?

I also heard of one called “The Office”. If you got home late and someone asked where you were you could just tell them… I was at the office.QUOTE]
My father used to go to bar that we nicknamed “The Office.” My dad’s probably a little too much like Norm from Cheers because he actually had a corner of the bar that belonged to him. Above the corner was a sign that said Carpet Corner. Too many men named John went there so they called him John Carpet.
Anyway, because he spent so much time there we called the bar The Office. It also made a good excuse when people called for him. Only close friends and family members knew what we meant when we said he was at the office.
Put a picture of a Grizzly out front covered in bandages.
Call the place The Bar Tender.
In the words of Spider Robinson–“I bear beer, bear.”
I say you name it “Your Momma’s House.” Not for the homey feeling or anything, but just so that come Monday, when a co-worker asks me where I went the night before, I can answer, “Your Momma’s House.”
Whiskey A-Go-Go
that or “Humbug” ala Scrooge (Bah! Humbug!)
Name it “Free Liquor” and watch the crowds “pour in”.
Truth in advertising isn’t all it’s cracked up to be anyway.

GAS BEER EATS
If one guy has a bar called Bar None, this could be Bar One. Or Bar Minus One, if you’re going that direction.
Depending on what you’re serving that might should be BEER EATS GAS.
Since it’s 3 levels with different atmospheres how about “Up, Down, or in the Middle”?
