Babe Cave doesn’t make any apologies for what it is: a bar designed for women.

Why it matters: It’s the latest concept from event planning company Good Life at Enderly Park. Robbie Guzman, the woman who co-created the space, tells Axios that she and business partner Michael Gosby wanted to give women a specific place where the decor is driven for them.

  • “Everyone is welcome, but we definitely have women in mind,” Guzman says.

Context: Good Life has been around since 2019, but Babe Cave opened under the same roof in January of this year.

What to expect: An Instagrammable, floral bar is located in the upper-level loft at Good Life. The space has three unique photo zones plus one rotating photo zone that changes seasonally.

  • It’s the kind of space dreams (and TikToks) are made of.

The menu consists of light bites, shareables and seasonally inspired cocktails.

  • A few popular brunch items include the lobster dip and dessert tower complete with macarons, cookies and other sweets.
  • The cocktail list is ever-evolving but drinks for the month of February include a “Love on Top” cocktail made with tequila, lime, ginger beer and sorbet and a “Teddy Bear Bourbon Smash” cocktail made with bourbon, peach juice, strawberries and gummy bears.
  • Cocktails range in price from $10-$15.

How it works: Babe Cave is open Saturdays for “Saturday Nights @ Babe Cave” and Sundays for brunch. General admission tickets can be purchased on their website for $35 on Sundays and $40 on Saturday nights.

  • Guzman recommends ordering food online ahead of time to ensure availability.

Location: 2122 Freedom Drive, Ste. D.
