Flamingo Cocktail Club and Falcon Coffee Bar

Description

Flamingo Cocktail Club and Falcon Coffee Bar opened in 2018 in what was formerly Good Samaritan Missionary Baptist Church. Sisters Alexis and Britt Soler, who are also behind No. 308 in East Nashville and Old Glory in Edgehill, partnered with Angela Laino to open the adjoined spaces. The three met working at The Florida Room in Miami. This background is reflected strongly in the bright pink exterior, mid-century decor, and cocktail club feel. Flamingo and the Falcon Coffee Bar, appropriately painted black and co-owned by Andy Knepshield, focus on sustainability, with a vegan menu, biodegradable materials, compost bins, and a seasonal garden.
