APB

"It doesn’t matter if you’re single, dating, married, or something in between, you’re still allowed to hate Valentine’s Day. And if that’s the group you fall into, Break-Up Bar is the place for you. Operating out of Severance Wine Bar on Melrose, this annual pop-up is doing four different “Anti-Valentine’s Day” packages, such as the “Ghosted,” which comes with six French macarons and a rosé tasting kit, or the “Wasted Two Years Of My Life,” which features a cheese board and three different alcoholic spritzers. Pickup only." - brant cox

"This former camera shop has been given a dark, sorta-steampunk-y makeover… but they also have a decent amount of TVs to watch games, and friendly bartenders, too. You could definitely wear a cape here." - kat hong, james montgomery

"Melrose bar APB, or A Plant Bar, serves a range of cocktails along with vegan fare, including plant-based sushi from Niku Nashi, Japanese fried chicken, vegetable spring rolls, and more. There are also dishes like the spicy tuna with crispy rice, perfectly crunchy french fries, and matcha cheesecake. It also goes down easy when accompanied by a solid cocktail like the lychee martini." - Virali_Dave, Eater Staff

"Melrose bar APB, or A Plant Bar, serves a range of cocktails along with vegan fare, including plant-based sushi from Niku Nashi, Japanese fried chicken, vegetable spring rolls, and more. While dishes like the spicy tuna with crispy rice and matcha cheesecake are worth trying, the true star of the show is the crispy shoestring fries. Served with a range of dipping sauces upon request, the fries have the perfect crunch and amount of salt. They also go down easy when accompanied by a solid cocktail, like the lychee martini." - Eater Staff
