Our fearless leader is officially breaking in the new Gold Star Bar shirts. Limited quantities available, because apparently “make more” was too easy.

Happy Easter from Gold Star Bar 🐰🥚
No bunnies were harmed… but a few drinks definitely disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Very Fatal Attraction… just with better lighting and worse decisions.

Heavy Sleeper is pulling up to Gold Star this Valentine’s Day to play songs for the broken-hearted, the “it’s complicated,” and the proudly single.
Roses are red. Violets are blue. If love let you down… we’ve got whiskey and live music for you. 💔🥃
