Lauren Settles Down

A few months ago, we started to chronicle the doings of veteran bartender Lauren. She had just started working at Yogi’s shortly before the real estate sharks destroyed it, and after the bar where she had worked for six years, Fubar, had physically been destroyed by a crane collapse.

More recently, I ran into her Sunday night at The Patriot Saloon, where for that one night she was filling in. But she does now have two regular shifts: Wednesday nights at The Duck, and Friday nights at The Patriot. So go see her, somewhere, anywhere, as often as you can.

Now you really have no excuse ever to stay home!

Lauren Heads West


Although the lovely Lauren, pictured above, has recently started working at Yogi's and The Patriot Saloon, she is no newcomer to the bartending scene. She had worked for six years at Fubar, a name some New Yorkers (and military buffs) may find familiar.

Fubar was located on East 50th Street near Second Avenue in Manhattan until this March. Then the bar was crushed, yes, literally smashed, in one of several high-profile crane collapses which have occurred of late in Fun City.

Since heading to the West Side and Yogi’s, and downtown to The Patriot, Lauren has fallen for one of these bars’ regulars: Waylon Jennings. Put on some of his songs, and her sunny face lights up like high noon in Luckenbach, Texas.
Lauren does not have a regular schedule yet, although she did captain the ship at Yogi’s this Monday night, where there has been no regular bartender since Janet moved to Wednesday days. Hopefully we’ll all be kept posted about Lauren’s next assignments, which y’all are hereby ordered to attend!
