Checking in with Threads and Tonic

24 Jun

I popped into Threads and Tonic the other day, just to see how things were going. The shop’s been open for about three weeks now at 20 West Main St. in the Village of Webster, and I hadn’t been in since I wrote my first blog about the new place. So I wandered down to check in and get an update.

Turns out, things are going pretty great.

Threads and Tonic is owned by Tracy Adkins, who’s passionate about both bartending and vintage clothes. With her new mocktail bar, she’s found a brilliant way to combine those two interests into a quirky little shop which blends a healthy, no-alcohol social gathering place with a casual vintage clothing shopping experience.

The Webster community has embraced Threads and Tonic warmly. Tracy’s been seeing a steady stream of customers come through, some for the mocktails and fresh-pressed juices (which are especially popular), others for the clothes. Many for both. It’s been a strong start so far, which she’s continuing to build on, with lowered prices, regular specials and sales, and a brand new food menu.

Right now her specials include:

  • Thrift and Tonic Tuesdays: 10% vintage clothing, and $1 off any mocktail or NA beer
  • Wellness Wednesdays: purchase any NA beer, juice or mocktail and get a free wellness shot
  • Teacher Appreciation Thursdays: 20% off
  • Plus, first responders and military get 20% all day, every day

And the new food menu? It includes treats like a charcuterie plate, loaded hummus and homemade pineapple peach salsa. (I tried this — it was to die for).

All together — the drinks, the food, the comfortable living-room-esque seating, and the staff — make for a very welcoming experience. In nice weather you’ll even find the front door propped open, an invitation to wander in, browse the vintage clothes, grab a drink and perhaps a snack, and just pause our crazy lives for a just a little while.

Threads and Tonic is located at 20 West Main St. in the Village of Webster. It’s open Tuesday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Find out more and watch some very cute Instagram videos on their Facebook page.
