Better Days

About

Better Days is a love letter to every dive bar you’ve ever sworn was your favorite, the one you went to when things were good, and the one you ran back to when they weren’t.

The space lives in two timelines at once. It’s rooted in the familiar comfort of a true neighborhood bar, while quietly pointing toward what’s next. We let the bones of the historic building lead the story: exposed brick walls, time-worn wood trusses, and a volume that feels honest, imperfect, and exactly right.

Then we layered in the future. A bright pop of citron cuts through the room, paired with a warm amber-orange neon glow that climbs into the rafters, a subtle reminder that even the grittiest places can hold light. The custom pool table, felted in citron and branded with Better Days, becomes a special enclave in the bar. Ambient glass block washes the space with a soft, nostalgic glow, while a handwritten script marquee above the bar feels like something you remember from another life.

Better Days isn’t about reinvention, it’s about recognition.
Better days ahead. Better days behind.
And a damn good place to meet in the middle.
