July Supper Club: Bookies Bar & Grille
Bookies Tavern was a staple sports bar and a local favorite located on Washington Blvd. for several years, but when Bookies reopened to a larger location at 2208 Cass Ave. (at Columbia) earlier this year, they made it clear that they were now ready for the big leagues. Supper Club will be heading to their spacious rooftop patio on Wednesday, July 29th, beginning with a cocktail hour at 6:00PM and a full four-course dinner at 7:00PM. When Bookies relocated they sought to redefine the old bar, and redefine they did, bringing in Executive Chef John Rodemich IV, a 19-year area restaurant veteran, to create a menu of classic bar food with a gourmet twist to mesh well with Bookies’ new upscale feel.
July’s Supper Club will be held on Wednesday July 29th beginning at 6:00PM. From 6:00-7:00PM we will have a cocktail hour so supper clubbers can meet and mingle, with dinner being served around 7:00PM. We will be tasting a wide selection of Bookies’ best offerings at a cost of $30.00 per person, inclusive of tax and gratuity, with optional $10.00 2-glass wine or beer flight. Any additional items purchased will be billed upon consumption and kept on your own tab.
