Try West Elm or CB2 or Williams-Sonoma Home

Thank you!!

Depends on the look you want. Do you want a built in look, or an open feel? Do you want to just put in a piece without having to do any work or have it built? I don't really think you have the space for an actual bar (or island) to stand behind, so I think a bar cart or maybe a cabinet so that the items are hidden most of the time would be what is called for here. Depending on your DIY skills, you could build in a cabinet with shelves or an upper cabinet. Not all these examples will be your style, but I think you can get the idea. You can even retrofit an old dresser, china cabinet, hutch, or secretary desk.

@tara I really like the idea of having a traditional bar but it is very expensive last quotes I got were over $7000..... I love the ideas you sent me especially the ivory cabinet with the turquoise inside... Do you have any recommendations on where I can actually buy something like this for a decent price? My DIY skills is horrendous. Thank you again for all the feedback!!!

That piece looks to me like vintage that has been redone. Look in thrift shops, consignment shops, antique stores. You may need to polish up on painting skills and repaint it yourself - or enlist an arty friend to help you. You could try to find a narrow free standing island at Home Depot or Lowes to act like the front of the bar and add shelves or a narrow cabinet on the wall behind it. Some of them cost as little as $300.

Look on Etsy. That looks like a secretary desk that has been redone. There are a lot of people redoing furniture on Etsy and if you can find a local artisan (which in LA I'm sure there are tons) you can find something for less. Etsy artisans usually add shipping into their costs, so you may be able to get a deal if you shop local. Cool pieces come along once in awhile but you need to be constantly looking.

I don't think you have room for a full bar. That requires. 2' cabinet space, 3' aisle, and bar space (2-3') for 7-8' and that's a SMALL space for a bar.

I will check out Etsy artisan..... If anybody knows a contact on Etsy that sells something similar please let me know

Here we have two bar ideas from designs of ours. Please note both options and see which you might prefer.

If you don't have the room to do a built-in bar, you could try just a bar cart.
