Memories Lounge

Memories Lounge The best little dive bar in Florida Memories has a long and storied history in Sarasota. We’re a dive bar, through and through. It’s our character.
(277)

From our humble beginnings back in 1980 to a crazy gin-joint in the 90s, to the last few decades growing up and becoming one of the ‘Institutions of the North Trail’, the story of Memories today is that of a bar that’s been through it all. It’s who we are, but this dive bar is more than a stereotype. This dive bar is our people. The Memories customer is the kind of person who cares about character

. They care about integrity and honest work. You’re unlikely to find a bunch of people who care about window dressings, small-batch-brewed floral-accented ingredients, and fly-by-night fads of where to be seen. Our regulars are people who are proud to call Memories home. People who are proud to say this little dive bar, looked down on by those that deem themselves “Coolier Than Thou“, is actually the best place in Sarasota to meet up with friends, share your stories, and have a drink. Ours is a collection of stories, and each one is the story of that individual sitting alone at the bar, or that couple who are so in love that they never notice the world around them, or the friends who pull together because they know this whole life thing is about “us” rather than just “me me me”… the Memories story is about the people who make us a community rather than “just a bar.”

All one needs to do is walk through the door and like magic *poof!*… it doesn’t matter what the size of your bank account might be*, where you went to school, what your address is, who your group is, who you want to love, who you vote for or what kind of car you drive: all that matters is your individual character and here, more than anywhere, you get to be you. We’re the neighborhood local. Come, have a drink with us and get to know some of these stories. Who knows, maybe you’ll add your own one day.

*If your bank account is zero please pay with cash and don’t forget to tip your bartender �
