Earlier this year, the creative team behind Ceres and Noodies officially opened Dandelion Cafe & Bakery at 200 N. Court Ave. Next up: The Dandelion Lounge. The cocktail bar is its soft opening on Friday, June 23.
The new spot, described as a cocktail bar serving “eclectic modern and classic cocktails with vintage textures in the historic Presidio Duplex,” is nestled inside the same location as Dandelion Cafe & Bakery and will be open on Fridays and Saturdays from 6 – 10 p.m.
Right off the bat, The Dandelion Lounge will be mixing up more than 10 specialty cocktails, at least three beers on hand, and a wine. Most of the cocktails range from $11 to $13 each, at least two are non-alcoholic ($7 to $10 each), and a couple of the cocktails are rearin’ to get you amped up (they’re caffeinated with either matcha or cold brew).
For instance, the Café Elote is a sweet, earthy, and bitter cocktail made with rye whiskey, Nixta Elote liquor, housemade cold brew, orange essence, coconut cold foam, and spiced cocoa powder.
As mentioned earlier, the new cocktail lounge shares its space with Dandelion Cafe & Bakery, which is open in the earlier hours of the day. The cafe is open 8 a.m. – 2 p.m. on Tuesday – Saturday and closed Sunday and Monday.
The Dandelion Lounge is located at 200 N. Court Ave. For more information, follow The Dandelion Lounge on Instagram.
