R.I.P. El Bar

I don’t quite remember how it happened but I can remember someone telling me when I first got to town.  That the hippest place in town looked like you were walking into a Meat Locker.  Should I repeat that for you?  The most popular place to go downtown for “the cool kids” is a renovated parking garage, but the hippest, a renovated cooler underneath a Mexican restaurant.  I was apprehensive since I wasn’t being led by the hand to the exact guy that I had to give a secret handshake to, slip him five bucks then be greeted by the glowing stares of all the regulars who would inevitably think “who is this guy

I had over thought things as usua.  El Bar was a really nice place to go.  Granted it was a little “in the know” but it was inviting and fun.  I hadn’t been there much lately because I really didn’t have anyone to go with, and I’m a social type at heart.  It really is a shame though.  It was a great alternative to the usual hot spots.

It’s sad to say. That was one of the coolest “yet to be discovered” spots. I guess it just took too long for the DSC and MJQ kids to find out about it.

Now they just migrate to East Atlanta
