A temperance bar is a type of bar that does not serve alcoholic beverages.

In the late 19th and 20th centuries, a number of such bars were established in conjunction with the Temperance Society. Originally, these advocated a moderate approach to life, especially concerning the consumption of alcohol. Later they moved toward abstinence from alcohol. Temperance bars with full temperance licenses (allowing them to serve on Sundays despite English trading laws at the time) were once common in many high streets and shopping areas in the North of England. The movement had a massive following, fueled mainly by Methodists.[1]

The bars quite often asked their patrons to sign a pledge of temperance, meaning that they would abstain from intoxicating liquors. Temperance bars were the first outlet for the drink Vimto in the early 20th century. They were also sometimes called "temperance taverns".

Typical drinks

Temperance bars served such brews as

  • Black beer and raisin
  • Blood tonic
  • Cream soda
  • Dandelion and burdock
  • Ginger beer
  • Herb bitters
  • Milk
  • Sarsaparilla
  • Vimto

Bars

Fitzpatrick's Herbal Health in Rawtenstall is thought to be the last original temperance bar. The Fitzpatricks came to Lancashire from Ireland in the 1880s. A family of many herbalists, they built a family-run chain of shops throughout Lancashire. These shops dealt in their non-alcoholic drinks, sold herbal remedies, and cordial bottles. At their peak, the Fitzpatrick family owned 24 shops, all brewing drinks to the original recipes from Ireland. As new drinks came from America, the temperance bars slowly waned. Fitzpatrick's, supported by loyal customers, survived. The Rawtenstall branch of Fitzpatrick's was run from 1891 until 1980 by family members. It is now run by new owners, with the objective of returning Fitzpatrick's Cordials to the market. Following a brief closure in early 2016, Fitzpatrick's reopened for business on 25 March 2016.[2]

Fitzpatrick's is notable for its old copper hot water dispenser which was originally a fixture at the Astoria Ballroom in Rawtenstall.[3] It has also won an award as the country's "Best Sarsaparilla Brewer",[4] and an award for its dandelion and burdock,[5] a year later.

In 2013, a new temperance bar opened in Rotherham, the Whistle Stop Sweet Shop & Temperance Bar.[6][7]
