This week one of the items in the Gazette mailbox was an announcement that two new businesses, Unwined on White and Tonic, will open soon on South White Street. Tonic will be a bar and social club, membership apparently required to sip the mixed drinks. And Unwined on White will be a wine lounge and yoga studio with a rooftop bar area.
Tonic is being outfitted next to the Wake Forest Coffee Company and Unwined will occupy the former Family Barber Shop where Bobby plied the scissors and razor.
Unfortunately, in order to have a rooftop area suitable for occupation, you have to have a roof. The new owners tore that out several weeks ago and restoration finally got underway about two weeks ago. This may take a while.

The new Wake Forest ABC store opened Monday, March 26, at 11 a.m. but Wake County ABC manager Joel Keith said later in the week there is still a lot of stocking and other store arrangements to be done. The store is on Royal Cotton Road just south of Sam’s. The store on Galaxy Drive has closed.
