Athletic Brewing in Salt Lake City, UT

Salt Lake City's dedicated non-alcoholic speakeasy, opened in December 2024 inside a restored century-old Sugar House home known as The Eclipse House and run by sibling team Matthew and Kelly LaPlante. The entire menu is zero-proof — "0% Alcohol, 100% Heart" — built by co-owner and lead bartender Matthew, a former Salt Lake Tribune reporter who quit drinking but never left bar culture, with his sister Kelly, a designer, styling the room as a forest-green, 1920s-inspired lounge. The duo have developed 50-plus craft NA cocktails on premium spirits like Lyre's, Dhōs, Trejo's and Kentucky 74, finished with herbs from their own basement hydroponic garden. The name nods to 1833, the year of the Latter-day Saint "Word of Wisdom," and because nothing on the menu contains alcohol, no ID is required — a genuine cocktail experience for people in recovery, designated drivers, never-drinkers, and the sober-curious.

Opened in June 2018 by Takashi and Tamara Gibo — the team behind the acclaimed Takashi sushi next door — Post Office Place is an intimate craft cocktail bar that shares an entrance with the restaurant on Market Street. Known for a deep Japanese whisky list and a James Beard Foundation Outstanding Bar Program semifinalist nod in 2023, it also keeps one of the most thorough printed non-alcoholic menus in Salt Lake City. The dedicated NA menu itemizes a bottled St. Agrestis Phony Negroni, Athletic NA beers, Gruvi Sparkling Rosé, and build-your-own zero-proof cocktails on Spiritless (Kentucky 74, Jalisco 55), Dhōs Gin, and Monday Zero whisky — plus a bespoke "Bartender Roulette" the team crafts to order. In 2026 the bar was named Salt Lake magazine's Best Restaurant alongside its Takashi omakase collaboration.

One of Salt Lake City's oldest brewpubs — opened in Trolley Square in 1972 (originally "The Pub") and brewing its own beer on-site since 1995. For non-drinkers, the menu carries a documented NA lineup: the house Pub's Hop Water Seltzer NA, Heineken 0.0, and Athletic Brewing's Run Wild non-alcoholic IPA. A full espresso bar — lattes, mochas, americanos and steamers — makes it an easy daytime or alcohol-free evening stop, alongside a from-scratch New American kitchen and award-winning beers.
