Original “Pharmacy Bar” opened its doors on March 31, 1997, in Washington. The name “Pharmacy” have been chosen because owner’s (Kristaps Krēsliņš) grandfather owned two pharmacies in Latvia before the second World War II.

Washington pub achieved a phenomenal popularity among local musicians, artists and students who enjoy a good drink music from jukebox. Then Kristaps decided to open a pub in Riga and on November 1, 2008 the “Krogs Aptieka” or “Pharmacy Bar” was opened in the Old Town of Riga to gather together the same type of people like in Washington.

The bar is located on two floors and its medieval brick walls, medicinal bottles and scales that you find inside are a clever combination of old and new in a place for cocktails and beers. There is also a smoking courtyard and a jukebox with anything from Johnny Cash and Bob Marley to the Pixies and Metallica.
