WHISKEY BEAR is moving!
BIG NEWS – 09/16/2021 – We are SO excited to announce that Whiskey Bear is moving to the Beaumont neighborhood in Southwest Lexington, but that’s not all… we’re also expanding and introducing a fast-casual and family-friendly pizzeria named Addie’s Stone-Fired Pizza as a sister concept to Whiskey Bear.
The last day to get drinks with us at The Summit is Sunday, October 3, 2021, and the GRAND REOPENING in our new Beaumont location is slated for early 2022. Stay tuned as we unveil more details over the next coming weeks… but for now, we have some celebrating to do and look forward to seeing each one of you over the next few weeks!
Thank you for your ongoing support, it means the world to us!
