There’s never a dull moment at Apothecary. The space feels like stepping back in time and is outfitted with Victorian-style chairs, mirrors and chandeliers. And the menu, comprising sections like light and refreshing, spirit-forward and cuisine-inspired, is a masterclass in thinking outside the box. New for April, the bar debuted a Drinking Through the Decades menu that starts in the 1920s and will change each month, moving to the ‘50s, ‘70s, and ‘90s before culminating with a best-of menu in August.
Drinks on these ambitious, era-specific menus are created as if Apothecary existed during this timeframe, using only ingredients and tools that were available in that decade. For the ‘20s, you get cocktails like the Hays and Confused, made with hay-infused rye and black vermouth, and the Caesar Salad, a Martini-style cocktail featuring lemon-pepper vodka, garlic blanc vermouth, Dijon, parmesan and anchovy.
