New Collaborative Late Night Venue ‘THERE HAS TO BE’ Pops Up In Finnieston To Showcase Sustainability
A group of creative hospitality businesses along with CDPI (Clyde Docks Preservation Initiative) have come together to open a new late-night pop-up bar celebrating all things sustainable in food and drink for a limited time.
The pop-up’s aim is to start a conversation on reducing waste in hospitality and educate around sustainability and the impact on the local economy.
They are also working with neighbouring bars such as Chinaski’s, The Parlour, Berkeley Suite and The Brunch Club to turn previously discarded waste like excess pineapple juices and limes and use these creatively in their drinks.
The menu features variations on classics with frozen margaritas, old fashioned and negronis, along with cocktails made with local sustainable brands such as Panther milk and Liquid oats – an innovative brand made with oat milk. There will also be artisan, Neapolitan-inspired pizza to complement the drinks and entertainment by local DJs curated by the Berkeley suite nightclub.
Adam Strang from Cocktail Collective said:
“We wanted to do something different to get the industry thinking about their carbon commitments and represent Glasgow hospitality. Sustainably conscious cocktails don’t need to be boring, if you stop and taste any of our cocktails, you’ll agree. We’re only open for a limited time, come and support us if you can.”
A spokesperson from Alchemilla said:
“We’re busy making plans to reopen the restaurant next month, same chefs, new name, foods from a different continent. We’re really excited to announce everything soon. In the meantime, we’re glad that we can enable the vision for THERE HAS TO BE pop up to happen with their sustainable takeover. ”
THERE HAS TO BE opens today from 4pm until 2am until Sunday, 14th November with a walk-ins only policy. It’s located in Alchemilla 1126 Argyle Street which has been taking over exclusively for the duration of the pop-up
