9 new Birmingham businesses, including Adiõs bar
Birmingham, it’s a new week and we have nine businesses for you to get excited about. From a classy cocktail bar to a flower shop, there are many new spots for you to look forward to and visit in The Magic City.
1. Adiõs | Downtown
It’s official, y’all—Adiõs, a cocktail bar, is opening on Tuesday, November 1. José Medina Camacho and Jesús Méndez, both born in Mexico, are bringing a taste of their home to Birmingham with ingredients and decor from their native country. Adiõs is the perfect place to meet your crew and try a familiar cocktail served with a twist.
“Adiõs is something that José and I have been wanting to do for a long time. Our goal is to introduce new ingredients and flavors to guests while welcoming them into a place that immediately feels like home. Hospitality and caring for others is at the root of everything we do, so we want this to be a space for people to celebrate, grieve, meet new friends or just sit at the bar and tell us about their day.”

I’m a sucker for a pretty bouquet of flowers, so I’m excited to walk down from our office to Mercantile on Morris to check out Dimples Flower Shop, which opens on Tuesday, November 1.
