This week on the Localist, we’re talking to Eric Bennett and John Easterling, two local bartenders who are opening their own bar, Continental Drift, soon. Eric and John have both worked in the most popular bars and restaurants in Birmingham, and are putting their expertise and experience to work. They tell us how they found the perfect location, how the buildout phase is going, and how the pandemic has affected their opening schedule. We also learn the inspiration behind their menu, how they’re approaching staffing and management, and the concerns they have about working together as friends.
