Chef Scott Crawford is opening a swanky new bar concept underneath Jolie to replace The Atlantic Lounge. Sous Terre — meaning underground in French — will open in the lock-and-key club’s Historic Oakwood space in 2024.

The intimate North Person Street bar will seat 35 and be one of four projects for Crawford Hospitality in 2024, including Raleigh Iron Works’ Brodeto, Crawford’s Genuine in RDU, and Crawford Brothers Steakhouse at Fenton.

The space is ideal for Jolie and Crawford & Son guests to enjoy pre- or post-meal — plus, Crawford plans to honor existing key members of the private lounge.

Crawford Hospitality Bev Director Jordan Joseph will helm this project and take on beverage programs at all of Crawford’s properties.

“We’re excited this opportunity presented itself; it’s a beautiful way for us to continue to share our hospitality with the Oakwood neighborhood, Raleigh community, and our restaurant guests,” said Crawford in a press release. Cheers to that, Chef.
