In the Weeds: A Guest Bartender Series with Paul McGee

There’s no one like your local bartender.

So we called up three of our favorites to make The Lobby bar their home for a series of Sunday evening unwinds. Grab a stool for delicious cocktails inspired by their storied careers, alongside our special menu of cheap drinks made stiff and house snacks made fresh.

Leyenda’s Leanne Farve brings unique, adventurous flair on Sept 11, liquid legend Paul McGee brings 30 years of tropical tastes on Sept 18 and we ring it in with paradise pro Shannon Mustipher and her pop-up, Women Who Tiki, on Sept 25.

Every Sunday in September, 8pm til late. Walk-in only.
