Taylor Swift may be currently on tour, but that doesn’t mean her fans are left without a place to celebrate their love for the pop star. Champagne Problems, a new Swift-themed speakeasy located at 207 Bowery on the Lower East side, has opened its doors earlier this summer. It offers a unique space for Swifties to come together outside of her ongoing tour. The entrance, concealed behind a chip wall that reveals a hidden door, sets the tone for the eclectic decor that awaits inside.
Upon entering Champagne Problems, guests are greeted with a Moet & Chandon vending machine, dispensing mini 187ml bottles of Champagne. The space is adorned with a mix of quirky decor, such as an oversized Champagne coupe filled with ping pong-sized bubbles for a fun photo opportunity. The walls feature a contemporary mural of Swift along with portraits of other icons like Beyonce and Jay-Z. Chandeliers illuminate the space, creating an elegant and whimsical ambiance.
Champagne Problems is not just a typical bar – it is filled with surprises and Easter eggs for the most dedicated fans to discover. Guests can press an express button to order Champagne without having to wait for a server. The lounge offers both intimate seating arrangements and group seating for larger parties. A constant stream of Swift’s music videos plays on a TV, adding to the overall experience. Additionally, the gallery wall of framed photos featuring famous Champagne drinkers adds to the overall aesthetics.
One of the most unique aspects of Champagne Problems is its food menu, which incorporates a playful chip theme. While Swift herself may not be a fan of chips, the menu offers dishes that are served alongside a bag of chips for a salty balance to the bubbly drinks. From Potato and Eggplant Frites with Doritos Cool Ranch Dressing to Korean fried hot dogs with mozzarella served with Ruffles, the menu is diverse and intriguing. The chip theme ties everything together, making it a cohesive and fun dining experience.
Champagne Problems is open from Tuesday to Sunday, starting at 5 p.m. Dinner is served until 11 p.m. on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, while drinks are available until 2:00 a.m. Fridays and Saturdays offer dinner until midnight, with drinks served until 3:00 a.m. This makes it a perfect spot for a night out with friends or a unique date night experience.
Champagne Problems is a must-visit destination for any Taylor Swift fan looking for a unique and immersive experience. From the hidden entrance to the eclectic decor, this speakeasy offers a blend of charm, fun, and elegance. Whether you’re a die-hard Swiftie or just looking for a fun night out, Champagne Problems has something for everyone. Cheers to a night filled with music, Champagne, and good vibes!
