Andra Hem

Andra Hem — Swedish for "second home" — is a Scandinavian-inspired cocktail lounge that opened in November 2022 in a four-story black-painted townhouse at 16th and Chancellor in Rittenhouse. Founded by art collector Paige West, with interiors by designer Ghislaine Viñas built around a fictional Swedish proprietor, the bar deliberately launched with no public-relations push yet landed on Esquire's Best Bars in America list in 2023. Lead bartender Patrick Jennings runs a cocktail program that leans Nordic, alongside snacks like warm bread, pickled herring, and caviar. Its menu carries a dedicated "Low ABV & Non-Alcoholic" section with three named zero-proof builds at $11 each: the Squirt Gun (bitter soda and espresso), The Linc (cucumber water, dill, lime, soda), and Touch Nothing But the Lamp (jasmine tea, fruit, citrus, soda). The NA list is small but real and house-made.

“Andra Hem's Squirt Gun is their take on the European favorite and it's exactly what it sounds like: espresso with bitter soda.”
