The Friday Favorites — Booze

Today is the second post in my new Friday Favorites series and I figured since we’re right at the weekend we may a well cover something fun. BOOZE! Salem is home to many bars, restaurants with bars, breweries, etc. These ones are my favorites. 🙂 Just my two cents, feel free to comment below with yours.

I am not really a  beer person (I know, I know. I just can’t get on board with it.) but I LOVE hard cider. Far From the Tree Cider has the most delicious drinks and their options rotate often. According to their website on tap right now they have the following:

ASWANG
Semi-sweet, green mango with ginger and lemon

PICKLE MY FANCY
Off-dry, cucumber cider with lemon and coriander

GROOTSLANG
Semi-sweet; rooibos tea and white grape

APFELWEIN
Dry, still, German-style cider

APPLE OF MY CHAI (<– SO GOOD oh my goodness. I love this one)
Semi-sweet; black tea cider with cinnamon, clove, cardamom, and orange peel

NOVA
Off-dry, dry hopped cider

DROP THE BASSIL (<– the name cracks me up)
Dry, with Lemon Drop hops and fresh basil

ECTOPLASM
Semi-sweet, green bell pepper, jalapeno, and kiwi cider

If cider isn’t your speed and you’re looking for more of a bar set up, I’d suggest checking out the Olde Main Street Pub. Their bar is small, but I like the atmosphere inside. The tables are mostly half chairs/half bench seating with pillows. They open late during the week at 5 pm but are also open until 1 am.

Lastly, if you want a bigger bar that can accommodate more people, I’d head over to Tavern in the Square. When the weather is nice and they have the perimeter walls open it’s absolutely lovely. They have a nice drink selection and the Big Dig fries off the appetizers menu (even though it’s more of a entree size haha) are super yummy.

Hope this is helpful! Feel free to drop me a message if you have suggestions of other favorites you’d like covered.
Enjoy!! <3
