For a cocktail bar with a small food menu, the dishes are surprisingly well executed. They're well thought out and meticulously crafted, just like their cocktails. There were a couple minor service hiccups, but the food and drink, as well as the proactive attitude of the staff, means this place still deserves 5 stars at least for the day I was there.

The food was delicious (cauliflower tikka masala and the soft pretzel) and the drinks were fun (midnight in the garden). And the service was friendly and helpful. The only downside is that we ended up at an outdoor table that had no heater. We were prepared but just a warning that you should bring a jacket if you’re going to sit outside. It’s a great street for people-watching. We will be back!

Now in full operation. Good food, nice cocktails, well worth a visit. A fun, lively bar with very good and eclectic food. Very enjoyable.

Great cocktails, food is so-so. The Brussels sprouts were nicely charred but the aioli tasted like Mayo and the blue cheese didn’t really go well with the dish. Fish in tacos tasted soapy.

Great cocktails. Great staff. Great time. Had an Irish coffee (they make their own whip cream in house) best one Ive had! Also learned what a “Last Call” cocktail is and the history behind the revival of the almost forgotten drink. Cant go wrong with either of those!

Friendly staff, good cocktails, different areas inside and out, upstairs and down. Very nice bar.

A bit expensive but you definitely get what you pay for average cocktail ? price around 8-15$ but it was absolutely incredible staff was very friendly and had amazing service. Great atmosphere and great food. Parking may be difficult to find but it's totally worth it. Would highly recommend checking this place out!

Absolutely delicious cocktail - I got the midnight in the garden and would love to drink this all the time!!

Amazing cocktails. Seriously, the combinations sound odd at times, but they are still incredible. And their classic cocktails are on point.

Outstanding crispy Brussels sprouts with blue cheese, eclectic selection of cocktails and wines, nice view of the creek out back. Great place to eat.
