This place is wonderful. If you are looking for an upscale atmosphere with amazing drinks this is it!

Got the membership online and booked out double date there. The place is so cool but the drinks were horrible. So strong you couldn’t drink them. We actually asked them to remake them. They were the same. Super disappointed. Tried emailing the place to tell them of our experience. No response.

Our server was incredible and the drinks were divine! There's an extensive drink menu but if you don't see what you want, they will concoct something delicious just for you.

Amazing customer service. I even emailed some questions I had and Bree got back to me right away with the answers. I would take every opportunity to check this place out if you get the chance!

Awesome experience, absolutely loved it

Cool vibe and great bartenders!

Membership Cocktail Club. While recently vacationing in Wilmington we stumbled upon this unassuming facade of a little place called Earnest Money & Sons. With a fondness for craft cocktails and an attraction to unique venues we were fortunate enough to be allowed to sit at the bar and have a cocktail at this establishment although we aren’t members (very appreciative). Inside is small and intimate with only a handful of small tables and a few barstools surrounding the bar. One bartender, and one waitress. All drinks are made to order. The menu lists every “typical” cocktail you can think of from Negroni to margaritas to old fashioned and sazeracs. Eyedroppers, herbs, and accoutrements line the bar area and it was enjoyable to watch each cocktail be prepared. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The surroundings were eclectic and added to the mystique of the venue. Surprisingly there weren’t any speciality or signature drinks available which was expected and would have been something we would have tried. Instead we had a Caipirnha and a Brown Derby.

The place yearly charges me a membership which I do not want. Beware

no way to contact them to opt out of yearly membership

This private members plus guests only speakeasy has the perfect atmosphere for date night or a casual drink with a friend. The decor, staff and bartender are a wonderful combination for the genre and mood they intended to achieve with this place. We go there often for a little sneak back into time and cozy conversations. Go online for a membership and stop by!
