Aftermath Bar & Kitchen, the modern American concept from Arizona restaurateur Charles Barber Jr., has announced plans to open a new location in Downtown Gilbert. Set to debut in January 2026 at 366 N. Gilbert Road ( the former “The Bar” space ), the new restaurant will bring Aftermath’s signature mix of scratch-made dishes, bold cocktails, and high-energy atmosphere to the heart of Gilbert. Guests can look forward to their award-winning menu, lively weekend brunch, and late-night cocktails in a lounge-style setting.

“We’ve always wanted to be in Gilbert, and after 10 years the timing is finally right,” says Charles Barber Jr., owner of Aftermath Bar & Kitchen. “ This spot will bring the same heart and quality people know us for, but with a unique vibe that reflects Downtown Gilbert.”
