Lisa Forman of Legends Pub & Grill: One Utah Woman’s Road to Success

April 20, 2022 by Amiee Maxwell Leave a Comment

I’m not part of the industry and I just focus on what I’m doing,” she says.  Forman first opened Legends after leaving her corporate job in sales at … [Read more...]

The Rise of Green Pig Pub: Bridget Gordon Carves a Niche in Salt Lake’s Male-Dominated Bar Scene

March 28, 2022 by Amiee Maxwell Leave a Comment

When Port O’ Call, a hugely popular, multi-storied Salt Lake City nightclub, was forced to close its doors in 2009, longtime bartender Bridget Gordon thought it would be difficult to find another job. “Most bars want cute young girls,” she says, and despite still being cute, she was nearing fifty years old but still wanted to stay in the business.

Eclectic Eats at Local Breweries and Pubs in Salt Lake and Beyond

March 24, 2022 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

There was a time, not so long ago, that dining in a brewpub offered very few interesting options for foodies. You could pretty much count on menus filled with burgers, nachos, fish & chips, buffalo wings, and the like. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I love a good burger and plate of fish & chips. But I also like variety. And increasingly, many folks ― … [Read more...]

Proper Brewing Co. Expanding beyond Salt Lake

But the two nanobreweries — which produce about 100 gallons of beer per batch, and are among Utah’s smallest — each plays an important role in its respective community.

Tuesday Night Jam Sessions at Gracie’s Foster a Sense of Community

March 1, 2022 by M. Shane Richins Leave a Comment

In the 1980s, Americans tuned in their TVs to watch a show about a bar where “everybody knows your name.” Cheers was a top-running show for a long time because the world could appreciate the feeling of having a place where you could really be accepted as yourself. Just as important, the characters accepted each other even after they had one too many beers. Oh, how times have … [Read more...]
