Amor y Amargo
Amor y Amargo was only supposed to be a six-month pop-up. Instead, it became one of the most influential bars of the modern era—a place with a distinct philosophy, a fiercely loyal audience, and a legacy that still matters.On this episode of The Buildout, Sother Teague joins Adam to tell the story of Amor y Amargo, explain why the drinks are always stirred and never shaken, and reflect on legacy, longevity, and why it still feels important for the bar to exist today.Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/buildoutpodcastAmor y Amargo: https://www.instagram.com/amoryamargoSother Teague: https://www.instagram.com/creativedrunkVinePair: https://www.instagram.com/vinepairHosted by VinePair Co-Founder: https://www.instagram.com/adamteeterProduced and edited by: https://www.instagram.com/dolldoctor Hosted on Acast.

Kees
Jeff Bell may be best known for PDT, but as much as the bar reflects his influence, it wasn’t something he built from the ground up. That bar is Kees. A deeply personal project, Kees gave Jeff the chance to create something entirely his own—and to do it under the weight of expectations that come with being so closely associated with one of the most famous bars in the world.On this episode of The Buildout, Jeff joins Adam to talk about his second act, the pressure of opening a new bar when your name is already tied to an iconic one, and the intentionality behind building Kees from scratch.Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/buildoutpodcastKees: https://www.instagram.com/seekkeesnycJeff Bell: https://www.instagram.com/jeffreymbellVinePair: https://www.instagram.com/vinepairHosted by VinePair Co-Founder: https://www.instagram.com/adamteeterProduced and edited by: https://www.instagram.com/dolldoctor Hosted on Acast.

Trick Dog
People come up with bar names and cocktail ideas in all kinds of ways, but for Josh Harris, inspiration often comes from memory, art, and whatever happens to spark something bigger. That creative instinct helped turn Trick Dog into one of the most influential bars of its generation. But Josh wasn’t always sure the bar—or even his place in the industry—would work out that way.On this episode of The Buildout, Josh joins Adam to talk about what it really takes to build a great bar, how to create a team culture that encourages creativity and buy-in, and how his own sobriety has shaped the way he thinks about hospitality and the bar world today.Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/buildoutpodcastTrick Dog: https://www.instagram.com/trickdogbarJosh Harris: https://www.instagram.com/josh_the_bon_vivantsVinePair: https://www.instagram.com/vinepairHosted by VinePair Co-Founder: https://www.instagram.com/adamteeterProduced and edited by: https://www.instagram.com/dolldoctor Hosted on Acast.

Bar Goto
When Kenta Goto left Pegu Club to open his own place on the Lower East Side, he was stepping into unfamiliar territory. He knew how to run a great bar program — but building a business from the ground up was something else entirely. So he did what came naturally: he studied. Kenta read everything he could about owning and operating a business, and that preparation paid off. From day one, Bar Goto clicked, eventually growing into one of the city’s most beloved bars and expanding with a second location in Brooklyn.On this episode of The Buildout, Kenta sits down with Adam to talk about taking the leap from star bartender to owner, what he learned while preparing to open, and how Bar Goto became a lasting New York success.Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/buildoutpodcastBar Goto: https://www.instagram.com/bargoto_nycKenta Goto: https://www.instagram.com/kenta_sanVinePair: https://www.instagram.com/vinepairHosted by VinePair Co-Founder: https://www.instagram.com/adamteeterProduced and edited by: https://www.instagram.com/dolldoctor Hosted on Acast.

Yacht Club
What makes Yacht Club one of the most fun bars in America? A lot of it comes down to the energy behind it: owners Mary and McLain are clearly having a blast. On this episode of The Buildout, Adam sits down with the duo to talk about how two Southerners ended up in Denver, why they traded the music business for the bar business, and how they built one of the country’s most joyful places to drink.Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/buildoutpodcastYacht Club: https://www.instagram.com/yachtclubbarMary Allison Wright: https://www.instagram.com/eatdrinkbemaryandmclainMcLain Hedges: https://www.instagram.com/yesterdayswineVinePair: https://www.instagram.com/vinepairHosted by VinePair Co-Founder: https://www.instagram.com/adamteeterProduced and edited by: https://www.instagram.com/dolldoctor Hosted on Acast.

De Vie
The founders of De Vie met while working at Paris’s legendary Little Red Door, where they began to imagine a bar of their own—one that carried forward everything they’d learned there, but stripped away some of the operational headaches that come with running a bar that has lines that form before the doors even open. The result is De Vie, one of the most exciting new openings in Paris. On today’s episode of The Buildout, Adam sits down with the founders to talk about what it takes to open a bar in Europe, why Paris felt like the right city to do it in, and how they built a place designed to work better for both guests and the people behind the bar.Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/buildoutpodcastDe Vie: https://www.instagram.com/devie.barAlex Francis: https://www.instagram.com/alexmfrancisBarney O'Kane: https://www.instagram.com/barneyfrombelfastVinePair: https://www.instagram.com/vinepairHosted by VinePair Co-Founder: https://www.instagram.com/adamteeterProduced and edited by: https://www.instagram.com/dolldoctor Hosted on Acast.

Sip & Guzzle
Shingo Gokan and Steve Schneider may not seem like an obvious bartending duo at first—but that’s exactly why they work so well together. Shingo is rooted in the precise, classic style of Japanese bartending, while Steve comes from the high-energy, hospitality-driven world of Employees Only. After years of friendship and collaboration, the two joined forces to open Sip & Guzzle in New York’s West Village. On today’s episode of The Buildout, Adam Teeter talks with both bartenders about the dynamic that makes their partnership click, how their different styles sharpen each other, and how one of the city’s most talked-about bars also ended up serving one of its most talked-about burgers.Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/buildoutpodcastSip & Guzzle: https://www.instagram.com/sipandguzzlenycSteve Schneider: https://www.instagram.com/mightyschneideyShingo Gokan: https://www.instagram.com/shingo_gokanVinePair: https://www.instagram.com/vinepairHosted by VinePair Co-Founder: https://www.instagram.com/adamteeterProduced and edited by: https://www.instagram.com/dolldoctor Hosted on Acast.
