Once a year, Conniption Bar gives up the ghost 👻

Co**se Reviver returns September 23–November 1: Durham’s annual immersive Halloween bar takeover. A transformed space. A limited cocktail menu. Hidden details to discover.

Before Conniption Bar, there was Co**se Reviver. This is where it comes back to life. 🧟

Revive Your Spirits. Save the dates and send this to your Halloween people.

Your Thursday flight takes off tomorrow. 🍸🛫

Mini Martini Flights are taking off tomorrow at Conniption Bar & Lounge. Choose any three for $19, served with housemade cheese straws.

Go Subzero with House Dry, Purple Rain, or Vesper—or mix it up with Espresso, Martinez, or Spicy Vodka. Six choices. Your perfect three.

Every Thursday, starting September 10. Individual minis available for $7.

Send this to your favorite “Is it the weekend yet?” friend. Which three are you choosing?

Thursday does not need a big plan — or a big spend.

Just a cold glass, a small pour, and a reason to get out before the weekend.

$7 Mini Martinis every Thursday at Conniption Bar & Lounge. 🍸

Come in. Keep it easy. Stay awhile.

A frozen take on the golf course classic. 🍇

The Transfusion Slushie combines Damn Fine Vodka with grape, ginger, and bright citrus—creating a crisp, refreshing, mid-summer sip designed to cool you down from the inside, out.

It is nostalgic.
It is deeply refreshing.
It is precisely the sort of icy treat made for the August heat.

Available now at Conniption Bar & Lounge.

Starting Sunday, August 2, join us upstairs in the Durham Distillery tasting room from 1–6 PM for classic cocktails, drafts, small bites, Quick Tours, and bottle sales.

The Sunday experience will be a little more intimate and a little more distillery-focused — an easy afternoon with something to drink, something to learn, and bottles available to take home.

Beginning August 2, our Sunday service will move upstairs to the Durham Distillery tasting room. The downstairs Conniption Bar & Lounge space will not be open on Sundays.

And as always, in N.C., distilleries are the only place where you can purchase spirits by the bottle on Sundays.

New: Durham Distillery is now an approved participant in Downtown Durham’s Bullpen Social District. During open hours, cocktails are available upstairs in the tasting room and may also be enjoyed in approved Bullpen cups within the district.

Good things, smaller format. 🍸🤏

$7 Mini Martinis are pouring tonight at Conniption Bar & Lounge — cold, social, and exactly right for the kind of Thursday that turns into staying longer than planned.

Try one.
Try a few.
No need to rush the night.

A classic does not need much.

Good spirit. Proper balance. A cold glass. The right orange peel.

Wednesday at Conniption Bar & Lounge, we’re pouring $7 Old Fashioneds — rich, balanced, and exactly right for the middle of the week.

Come in, settle down, and let Wednesday improve from there.

If you know, you know. 🍊

The Grand Marnier Slush has been one of the cult-classic favorites at Conniption Bar & Lounge since we opened in 2020.

Bright, creamy, citrusy, nostalgic, and exactly the kind of frozen cocktail July was built for.

Now pouring at Conniption Bar & Lounge.

We’re back, and conveniently, so are your Thursday plans.

$7 Mini Martinis tonight at Conniption Bar & Lounge. 🍸

Cold, small-format, and ideal for trying more than one lane.
