Gone, but very much not forgotten.

If you knew Soda Bar, you probably really knew it.

Tucked into Prospect Heights, Soda Bar was one of those perfect neighborhood joints — good drinks, good music, low lighting, zero pretense. A place where nights started casually and ended… less so. A place that felt like yours, even when it wasn’t.

Like too many beloved Brooklyn spots, Soda Bar closed its doors, leaving behind a trail of memories, stories, and “remember that night?” conversations.

This piece actually started as a commission — a gift from a woman to her husband, because Soda Bar was their place. Which tells you everything you need to know.

I drew so they could hold onto that feeling: the glow of the facade, the quiet hum of a great bar, and the simple magic of a neighborhood spot that mattered.

Now you can hang a little piece of it on your wall.

Perfect for:

• Brooklyn locals & expats
• Former regulars (you know who you are)
• Dive bar lovers
• Nostalgia collectors
• Anyone who’s ever lost a favorite place
