Naturally, when The Grapevine moved out of its beloved small pink adobe on Maple Avenue in 2023 there was skepticism about whether the charm could carry over. Great news: They double-bubble packed it. After about three decades, they reopened the bar in a spot a mile from the original, and kept most of the staff who have been with the bar for a decade.
They offer up a lot of outdoor space and the same seriously powerful drinks and recently added a kitchen (get the boudin balls). This is Dallas' "everyone bar." There's a little bit of this (basketball) and a little bit of that (karaoke), but there's no doing coke in the bathroom (so says a sign, anyway).
