🎧 Live DJs on the patio all night
🐕 Dog-friendly, inside and out
The first weekend of the month starts on this patio.
One Friday a month, Seminole Heights’ long-running neighborhood bar hands its patio over to local makers. DJs set up outside, Plant Bingo fills the tables, and the bar that has anchored this block for years keeps pouring until close.
Who you’ll find
The lineup is curated fresh every month, so it never repeats. Recent First Fridays have brought:
- Vintage and streetwear — men’s and women’s
- Handmade, metalwork and permanent jewelry
- Illustration, prints, fine art and sculpture
- Candles, soap, skincare and fragrance
- Pottery and ceramics
- Bakers, fresh juice and small-batch treats
- Books, comics and anime art
- Crochet goods and handmade plushies
- Tarot readers and astrology
- Fresh flowers and home decor
Plant Bingo · 6:30 PM
Plant Bingo starts before the market and runs into it, hosted by Low Key Lush. It is a separate ticket and it fills up every month — worth grabbing ahead of time.
What is on the bar
The beer program is why this place is still here: 35 taps plus packaged craft, wine and seltzer — roughly 100 options on any given night. The full Blind Tiger coffee menu runs all night too, if you would rather be wired than buzzed.
Kitchen stays open: crispy smoked wings, Roman flatbread, Bavarian pretzel, baked mac & cheese, and all-day breakfast if you skipped dinner.
Good to know
- Rain or shine — the market runs on the covered patio
- All ages welcome
- Parking on site
- Bring the dog — patio and indoors
- Come hungry, leave with something you cannot get at a mall
