There’s a new bar on Greenville Avenue in Dallas with a certain Collin County Cred: Called pharmacist, it’s a spin-off from Rye, a restaurant-cocktail-bar in McKinney, and opened July 7th in the former Wah Wah Room on Greenville Ave.
One publication calls Apothecary an “avant-garde cocktail lounge with ultra-inventive tips”. I mean, this is a Grade-A release.
The goal is to offer an incomparable drinking experience and to push the boundaries for daring cocktail creations, new techniques and creative presentations.
It also has a theme that is always fun with a bar.
“Pharmacists are the source from which bartending and cocktails evolved,” says owner Tanner Agar. “We have a team that is very passionate about researching new flavors and combinations. As with the pharmacists of the past, our team’s exploration and in-depth research still open up new possibilities and we wanted to reflect the connection to the past and present on our behalf. “
