Shop Local | Eat Well | Create Community

Downtown OKC's new hot spot

The Concept

Sailor & The Dock is a local market, bar, arts and events venue in an eco-conscious conversion of a 1920s urban warehouse. It is a central place to fill your vitality cup by shopping, eating well, and building community among a collective of mission driven creators, artists, and local retailers fostering a new movement of powerful projects and missions in the city.

There's something for everyone.

In addition to a unique market place, there is a dedicated arts & events space with weekly programing showcasing OKC's artists, creatives, musicians, and more each week. To top it off, patrons can convene for a drink at the sailboat bar in the center of the Sailor & The Dock market.

Core values

As the creative vision for this project became clear, the core values of Sustainability, Creativity, Community, and Wellness were born - guiding Hamid’s direction for the adaptive-reuse conversion / development of this 14,000 square foot downtown warehouse into a creative community space, as well as the founding characteristics of Sailor and The Dock.

Reclaimed Sailboat Bar

That’s right – the bar is made from a sailboat that’s lived its full life navigating earth’s waters. Rather than end up in a land fill, this boat is the centerpiece of Sailor & The Dock. This is a physical representation of sustainability, a core value of Sailor & The Dock. We honor nature at every turn, striving to be thoughtful and creative in preserving nature's resources.

Shop Local

Surrounding the sailboat bar floating in the center of the venue, there are a variety of trendy local shops. Expect a melting pot of creative local retail businesses (we call them sailors) featuring a farm-to-table cafe, trendy book shop, coffee shop, low waste living store, vintage clothing store, and more.

Plan your next event​

Just down the street from the Devon Tower and Myriad Gardens, Sailor & The Dock is a central spot to throw your next event in Downtown OKC. Located at 617 W. Sheridan Ave. on Historic Film Row in West Village District, the dedicated event space will be available for private events this summer. Schedule a tour!​

Sustainability & wellness focused

We seek to promote wellness for all patrons by incorporating design elements and lifestyle concepts that promote well-being. Our mission of preserving nature is manifested through structural decor, utilizing recycled bottles, repurposed sailboat bar and sails, with plants throughout.
