'''The Garage''' is a bar and sandwich shop located at 2304 [[10th Terrace South]] off [[Highland Avenue]] in [[Southside]]. The bar, opened in [[2014]] by [[Kay Woehle]], occupies part of a [[The Garages|former complex]] of 1930s-era covered garage stalls arrayed around a courtyard.

The rest of the stalls are filled with antiques acquired by original landlord [[Fritz Woehle]], Kay's father. The bar's seating extends into the courtyard where wisteria vines shade casually-arranged piles of old lawn statues, architectural fragments and plumbing fixtures.
 
The Garage was opened by Woehle after the owner of the iconic [[Garage Café]] [[Jimmy Watson]] died from injuries suffered in a vehicle collision in March 2014. His brother [[Kenny Watson|Kenny]] ran the Garage Café until it closed on Saturday [[August 30]]. Longtime bartender [[Jyl Williamson]] stayed on as co-manager. Most of the staff and decorations, with exception of the Watson brothers' personal belongings, stayed the same.
