Gimme Gimme, a new rock-and-roll bar, will open Aug. 1 at 803 S. St. Mary’s St., just south of downtown San Antonio, a news release states.

A wine bar, A Perfect Day, will also open up Aug. 1 next to Gimme Gimme, the release states.

The ownership group of both new bars includes Roger Herr of Bar Loretta and Aaron Peña of Amor Eterno and The Squeezebox, the latter of which will close at the end of July.

Partners Michael Neff and chef Paul Petersen of Bar Loretta will oversee the menu efforts, with Neff focusing on the bar program and Petersen leading the kitchen, the release states.

Representatives of the ownership group said Gimme Gimme will feature a rock music atmosphere with food, craft cocktails and a comprehensive beer and wine selection in a space formerly occupied by the Irish pub Francis Bogside, which recently relocated to east of downtown San Antonio.

“Growing up in San Antonio, I’ve always known our city as the home of rock-and-roll. The inspiration for Gimme Gimme comes from wanting to create our own version of what we think a rock-and-roll bar can be,” co-owner Roger Herr said in a statement. “Great music, great food, great cocktails, great service, and always a sense of humor. I’m super excited to share what our team has created.”

Next door, A Perfect Day will offer a wine-centric, relaxed atmosphere with small bites and ready-made cocktails, the release states.

Peña said he looks forward to adding another space to Southtown that will be a different direction than past and current concepts that he and Herr have created.

“Musically, the 14-year-old punk rocker version of my younger self is really excited to help curate the selection of tunes we will feature inside both Gimme Gimme and A Perfect Day,” Peña said in a statement. “I think the neighborhood is going to love having an additional late night food and beverage option in the most walkable neighborhood in San Antonio.”
