Bar Nada Nada is coming soon to NuLu

The minds behind Canary Club and The Breeze are opening a new bar + store combo on Market Street.

Soon you’ll be able to visit a European patio without leaving NuLu.

Sarah Height and Chelsea Monsma, the duo behind Canary Club and The Breeze in Shelby Park, will soon open their second — or third and fourth, depending on how you count — combo bar + boutique shop at 829 E. Market St. (next to NuLu Marketplace, in the former Grind Burger building).

Bar Nada Nada, offering natural wines, cocktails, and small bites, will be joined in a few weeks by Goldie, a shop selling coffee, snacks, and gifts.

While the cocktails they’ve been teasing on Instagram look quite refreshing — we can’t wait for the gin and tonic — natural wine is what connects both ventures.

“The through line between Canary Club, The Breeze, Bar Nada Nada, and Goldie’s is natural wine,” Height said. “It’s how we got our start and it’s where our passion lies. While the concepts will be similar in its base idea, the execution, style, and overall vibe will be a whole new experience.”

Bar Nada Nada will feature a constantly rotating wine list encouraging customers to come back again and again. Height and Monsma drew inspiration from their journeys through Spain, Portugal, France, and Italy + visits to some of Europe’s best wine and cocktail bars — but don’t feel like it’s going to be too hoity-toity.

“We think wine shouldn’t be anything to take too seriously. It’s made to be enjoyed among friends, and we hope to provide the best space we can for our neighbors,” Height said.

The space will include a covered patio, a cozy corner with sofa seating, and a bar.

Bar Nada Nada will open Tuesday, July 23, with Goldie’s to follow in the coming weeks.
