Hi, everyone. I'm busy trying to get a home bar up and running and I need some inspiration. Anyone have a basement bar, tiki patio, garage tavern, etc. they want to share? Let's see some pics!

Thanks, and apologies if this question might be better in a different forum.

I’ve been wanting to convert a spare bedroom into a pipe & cigar bar room. So I’m not looking for anything big. And it would have to be without waterlines & plumbing. Something small, so I’ve been toying with converting an old entertainment center. They should be a dime a dozen & cheaper than an armoire.

What are you planning?

Great idea Jack, I had an old TV cabinet/ armoire that I used at the old house.
I really like your new room Rusty, but you had a nice setup with that upright TV cabinet. The one I pictured above is for sale locally but the asking price is high because it has a hand rubbed paint job. Some of the oak grain shows thru the hand rubbed black & the contrast is nice. And the black top is abrasive resistant paint. I could probably have a cabinet builder come in & frame up what I have in mind about as cheap. What gets expensive for a cigar bar is the air purifier. Something along the lines of what I would like to have :

Cool stuff, guys! I like what y’all are doing. The cantina idea let’s you role with the Southwest flavor, and the cigar bar thing has its own identity too.

At first I wanted to have a sort of Adventurer’s Club feel, but then I discovered this weird bar at an antique store. I think it’s leaning more towards a kind of MCM rock’n’roll feel so I might go all in on that.

Take any pics?

My cousin built a garage bar separate from his house. He & his buddy’s are NASCAR fans so he hosts them once a wk to watch the race on 3 TV’s. We’re separated apart by a couple hundred miles so I’ve never been there so I asked him to send me some pics. I’ll post a couple. As you can see he’s into the bar lights & atmospher.
