A sneak peek at the new, immersive Space Bar in Market Square

Market Square will soon be home to Space Bar, an immersive, molecular mixology lounge that is the brainchild of sci-fi writer Dale Thomas Vaughn and his partner, and longtime bartender, Elizabeth Menzel. Step into the lounge and you board the SS Oasis, decked out with moon-shaped lighting, tables emblazoned with images of nebula, and constantly changing virtual "windows" that give you a tour of galaxies far, far away. Lead mixologist Arum Krause employs the use of foams, spherification, and unique infusions like goat-cheese tequila to create an unexpected cocktail menu unlike any other in the city. Space Bar also serves a vegan-friendly/vegetarian menu with items ranging from beet hummus to jicama tacos to sweet "space" ice cream. Space Bar will open to the public on Saturday, Nov. 18. 22 Market Square, Downtown
