The Bar of the Damned

[Eco]

Most of us have tried or drank alcohol in our lives, right?
Maybe even some of us go outside to clubs, pubs and liquor shops to grab a drink.
But why do we drink? is it to celebrate, to get smashed, or just to hang out with friends.
Clubs, pubs, shops and restaurants are full of people nowadays that we have to repeat what we say to the people we're talking to. Yes, these places are for socialising and to chat but how about to reflect one's life, to find peace of mind or to get away from the noise of society? to relax and savour the drinks and food to forget your problems. An oasis in the desert of chattery.

An idea that has been popping up in my head for 2 weeks now is: What if there was a bar that fills the need for peace, tranquillity, and quietness?
Surely, you can just buy a beer or two to drink in your house rather than go to this type of bar. However, wouldn't you be bored and feel isolated? or maybe this type of bars already exist (the ones with jazz).
As entrepreneurs, we know what we're working on is crucial for our lives and future. But we shouldn't forget about reflecting on ourself, our goals, and our mental state.
So, I believe that the Bar of the Damned (name still in progress) may stand out from the sea of cocktail makers and social gatherings.

This is just a rough concept and I'll be glad to read your opinions, extra ideas and maybe even some past experiences with bars.

Why "Bar of the Damned"? I thought that meant being in pain/being punished or something? Not going there for peace?

Think I'd rather take some alcohol to a park or somewhere in nature if I really wanted peace and isolation.

The name "Damned" is just to catch some attention but it also refers to people who seek comfort and salvation from suffering and the difficulties of life

Making your way in the world today
Takes everything you got
Taking a break from all your worries
It sure would help a lot
Wouldn't you like to get away?
Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name
And they're always glad you came
You want to be where you can see
The troubles are all the same
You want to be where everybody knows your name

Not original by any means but this came to mind as I was reading your post.

Sounds like a great book title

Sounds like a vampire bar.

You want to go have a cocktail and a conversation? Go to a cigar lounge/bar.

Generally, it's a more mature crowd, a more relaxed environment, quieter music, better seating, and no stigma if you want to go alone.
