The goal is to host nightly live entertainment by March
The modest structure at 3258 West 32nd Street in the Clark-Fulton neighborhood has been a bar for as long as it has been legal to operate one. Pacino’s Wonder Bar opened up immediately after Prohibition, making it one of the first places around to enjoy a lawful beer. More recently, the 100-year-old building was home to Dunlap's Country Corner, a community mainstay for about 20 years.
“It needed some fundamental improvements like a new roof, but everything else we did was to fix something that was broken or to bring it back to how it was,” White explains. “I love dive bars – bars that don’t have a concept. Once neighborhoods get gentrified, being a regular bar becomes a concept itself. We have no desire to gentrify this bar or the neighborhood. I want Dunlap’s to be what any dive wants, and that’s to be a community anchor.
“For some reason, younger generations think they need to be doing something else while they’re drinking,” White says. “It’s the weirdest fucking trend. Drinking is enough. Who wants to play shuffleboard 80 feet away from the people you came to the bar with. What are you supposed to do, scream at them?”
