TESTIMONIALS
In late 2018, she officially opened Jules Design Bar under the same roof as her studio, Julie Smith Design and Retail, serving up cocktails in a European-inspired atmosphere featuring crisp black and white details, crystal chandeliers, a long bar topped by a steel counter and sofa-style seating. Now customers can browse a variety of edgy yet timeless offerings—including lighting, furniture, art and accessories—all while enjoying a signature “Jules” Old Fashioned, craft cocktail

"Great atmosphere! If you like home decor and sipping on a cocktail...don’t miss out! The owner is very welcoming and such a delight to get to know. I’m hoping to make this my local bar & become a regular. Thanks Jules!"

"Great lounge-style atmosphere featuring hand-crafted cocktails, fine wine, and attentive service in a retail space specializing in architectural and interior design. Enjoy Julie's holiday style take on the old-fashioned while relaxing with friends in a "suave, nostalgic, downtown environment, evocative of a more graceful era, conveniently located close to home."

"Omg...an amazing experience that just unfolded without effort. I stopped by to visit my friend Jules and met the most amazing people with the greatest intentions. Julie is an absolute expert with experience, Architecture and design. Yes this is a bar, but that's secondary ...people come here for the connection to art, emotion and intention. This is an absolute treasure if you contribute yourself to the experience!" -Pam 5 stars
