A cocktail bar inside a refurbished vintage tour bus comes to Reynoldstown

It’s called Tiger Sun, and comes from the same team behind Ladybird Grove & Mess Hall, Muchacho, Ranger Station, Strangers in Paradise, and the Electric Room. The cocktail bar opens on November 20 behind Muchacho in Reynoldstown. There’s lots to take in here: first, it’s inside a vintage tour bus. Second, it’s an “omakase-inspired” experience, meaning there are only 18 seats with themed courses of cocktails and light bites. The opening menu is inspired by the 80’s classic, Karate Kid, and offers two menus to choose from: Wax On and Wax Off. Menu themes will change throughout the year. Reservations are available now.
