BALDWIN BARMACIE
Created all-white (or off-white and beige), except for one orange banquette, to create a pharmacy-like environment as a tribute to the owner’s grandmother, who worked in a local pharmacy. Recommended by Joe Beef chef/co-owner David McMillan for a late night cocktail. Expect loud music, great cocktails, and a bit of a scene.
