CASEMENTS - An Irish bar in San Francisco offers a seat at the bar, your home bar with home delivery.
Staying at home and eating and imbibing at home is the new normal, for now at least.
The shelter in place ordinance in the city of San Francisco has devastated the hospitality industry as we know. It will be tough for many to come back.
However, the loveable crew behind CASEMENTS BAR in the mission, San Francisco have been getting crafty and creative.
Said Owner/Partner Gillian Fitzgerald:
"We are offering out patrons and friends our "CASEMATES" - that's home delivery of our most popular hand-crafted signature cocktails until you can join us again on the barstool".
Gillian is also doing regular "CASEMENTS LIVE" segments on her instagram page. Viewers have the chance to add a new cocktail recipe to their imbibing arsenal @Gillian_Fitzgerald .
Casements ", along with the hundreds of other shuttered Bay Area bars will come roaring back soon. We shall visit our locals again and engage with our bartenders as we belly up to the bar.
Look online to see what your local is doing to serve you in their physical absence but virtual presence.
For now enjoy my IRISH chinwag with Chris, Gillian and Sean of Casements Bar and check out the Irish coffee recipe below. Plus, learn about the man himself Roger Casement, the hero from the Emerald Isle who inspired the recent opening (& temporally closing) of this SF watering hole.
SLAINTÈ AND STAY HOME & STAY HEALTHY!
