LOCAL BUSINESS

There is a local cocktail bar that has been serving up stiff, delicious libations for years, which is now expanding their space. The Davenport, located at 194 South Guadalupe Street, has opened their back patio as a cocktail lounge, and owner Duane Bradley will be starting renovations soon to expand the bar’s indoor seating as well.

The city of San Marcos provided Bradley with a Covid-19 relief grant that paid for $12,000 of the outdoor renovations, which provided slightly less than half of the total cost. The now swanky patio lounge was formerly just a concrete square. He had always planned to make the patio a lounge but jumped at the chance when the funding became available. And for the rainy, sweltering or cold days, there will soon be increased indoor seating.
