Good Times & Giving Back

Owner David Malley opened his initial business, Two Guys’ Enterprise, in 2000 to help make ends meet as a newlywed. He worked nights pressure washing commercial properties while also working his day job as a restaurant manager. Within a year, his pressure washing business took off, enabling him to quit his day job and grow this business full time. Within 3 years, he started to diversify and invested in rental homes in East Side San Antonio. He encouraged his father to also purchase homes in this area for supplemental retirement income, and as part of this venture, his father purchased three dilapidated homes zoned for commercial use. David saw this as an opportunity and negotiated a deal to trade some of his nicer rental properties for those three houses, which would soon become the Alley at the Dome.

This project has been years in the making and has finally come to fruition.  Over the years, David has poured his heart into his work, as well as plenty of blood, sweat and tears, to create a host of booming businesses which range from rental houses to commercial property maintenance to restaurant investments.

This former Eagle Scout embodies authenticity and generosity. One of his greatest joys in life is traveling and duck hunting with his daughter. But he is also inspired daily by his son, who lives with Tourette Syndrome.

Because of his son, the Cherrity Bar is not just donating 10% of the profits to charity, they are giving it all away. The Malley’s hearts are truly into giving back and they view the Cherrity Bar as their opportunity to make a difference.

“We want it to be a place for everyone,” David said. “We welcome families and singles. We welcome people with special needs. There will be an awesome playground for parents with kids who need to burn off energy, and there will be a sensory room for kids who need some quiet.”

The Cherrity Bar hopes to become a place where a diverse melting pot of people come together for the greater good while enjoying delicious food and savory drinks, both alcoholic and nonalcoholic.  In a time when the whole world seems at odds with one another, we hope this little bar at the corner of Montana and Cherry Streets will serve as a positive beacon of hope and love in the Alamo City.
