Cheap Cocktails, Burlesque, And Costumes: Where To Celebrate Repeal Day

This Henderson Avenue institution will serve up 82-cent cocktails at its annual celebration of Repeal Day on Saturday from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m, or until the bar runs out of booze. In addition to complimentary rum cognac punch, you can snag a Sazerac, Income Tax, or Hemingway daiquiri for less than a buck.

This Uptown bar’s fourth-annual Repeal Day celebration is bigger than ever. In addition to specials on drinks and food all night, burlesque dancers, fire performers, jugglers, and contortionists will turn transform the restaurant into a vintage sideshow. The party starts on Saturday at 9 p.m.

The Arlington, Plano, and Fort Worth locations of World Of Beer will offer guests their first select draught for just ten cents -- the price of a beer in 1933. The bar will serve beers from Leinenkugel and Lone Star, both pre-Prohibition breweries that survived the ban. This deal is available from open until 5 p.m. on Saturday.

The retro theme is certainly popular on Repeal Day, and the festivities at Green Door Public House are no exception. Burlesque dancers will kick off the shindig at 9 p.m., followed by karaoke at 10. If you need a little liquid courage to belt out your version of "Bohemian Rhapsody," drink specials will be on all night long.

This Plano restaurant goes all out in its celebration of Repeal Day, which makes sense considering its favorite ingredient. On Saturday, Whiskey Cake will host a Repeal Day party with specials all night long on classic cocktails like the French 75, Gin Rickey, and Whiskey Sour. Dress up in your best ‘30s-inspired attire for a chance to win a boozy prize basket.

This baby brewery will celebrate its second anniversary on Repeal Day, and that means live music, food trucks, and of course, cheap beers. In addition to $3 pints all day long, Grapevine Craft Brewery will feature the Kentucky Common, a dark cream ale that, according to the brewery, was one of the most popular beers from the 1880s until Prohibition began.

Prohibition-era cocktails are as en vogue now as they were in 1933, but you’ll pretty much never find them at 1933 prices. On Saturday, The Cedars Social will celebrate the end of the "noble experiment" with a menu of classic cocktails for just $3.30 each.
