It may not be “Cheers” but it is definitely a bar where everybody knows your name. As we continue to spend more time at home and happy hours are increasingly likely to be virtual, the home bar has become more important than ever. Whether you are starting from scratch or are itching to give your bar a makeover, we have just the pieces you need to make the area special.
THE FOUNDATION
While a piece that was specifically designed to be used as a bar is great, really any console, sideboard, or table can make a fantastic place to keep your bottles, glasses, and accessories handy.

If additional storage is not necessary, this shining black and gold Asian table is an inspired choice. Just because you are drinking from home doesn’t mean you need to do it without style. Roll up to your chic home bar whenever it’s convenient for you – no jackets required.
