Gimme Gimme, a new rock ‘n’ roll bar coming to San Antonio, announced its official opening day, slated for Tuesday, August 1, 2023. Adjacent to the bar will be the concept A Perfect Day, a modern neighborhood wine bar, which will open on the same day.
Leading this new concept are bar owners Roger Herr of Bar Loretta and Aaron Peña of Amor Eterno. Partners Michael Neff and Chef Paul Petersen of Bar Loretta will be overseeing the menu efforts, with Neff focusing on the bar program and Petersen leading the kitchen.
Gimme Gimme (think Ramones), will offer a rock ‘n’ roll experience with craft cocktails, a robust beer & wine list, and chef-driven food in the space formerly occupied by Francis Bogside.
“Growing up in San Antonio, I’ve always known our city as the home of rock ‘n’ roll. The inspiration for Gimme Gimme comes from wanting to create our own version of what we think a rock ‘n’ roll bar can be. Great music, great food, great cocktails, great service, and always a sense of humor. I’m super excited to share what our team has created,” said Owner Roger Herr in a statement.
The adjacent space, A Perfect Day, will offer a wine-forward, relaxed atmosphere with small bites, ready-made cocktails, and plenty of wine.
“I’m really looking forward to adding another space to Southtown that will be a totally different direction than our respective concepts that Roger and I are known for,” said Owner Aaron Peña. “Musically, the 14-year-old punk rocker version of my younger self is really excited to help curate the selection of tunes we will feature inside both Gimme Gimme and A Perfect Day – I think the neighborhood is going to love having an additional late night food and beverage option in the most walkable neighborhood in San Antonio.”
Gimme Gimme will be open 7 days a week from 6PM – 2AM. A Perfect Day will be open Monday-Friday from 4PM – 10PM; Saturday-Sunday from 12PM – 10PM.
Gimme Gimme and a Perfect Day are located at 803 South Saint Mary’s St., San Antonio, TX 78205.
