New owner for Tara's
Published by Dale Evans on Dec 14, 2007
Local music promoter Danny Deutsch recently purchased the building that formerly housed Tara Cocktail Lounge on Liberty Pole Way. Now in the process of remodeling, he plans to open a new venue, Abilene, in early January. He got the name from his favorite song sung by Dave Alvin.
The building is a great downtown location. A stand-alone brick, behind the old Sibley's and across from Harro East, it has two floors and a large outdoor patio. A convenient 20-space parking lot is beside it.
Deutsch plans to stock the bar with American craft beers. Although live music on the second floor won't come until later, the diverse music he is known for will be piped out of a great sound system.
