29 Best Cocktail Bars near Lakewood

“I'd say it is quality done right. It is few and far between to find a place that serves cocktails that don't make you feel sick afterwards.If you want a place to have a few drinks and eat some food to soak up the alcohol this is the place. You also get the bonus of the greens being picked a few hours ago. And them being able to tell you where the food came from and how it was made- step by step.“

“I have zero complaints about my experience here. The dining area reminds me of a split between a contemporary bar and a 1980s hometown establishment. I was worried that the food was going to be light, but they fill their plates. Our server Bryan hooked us up with great recommendations the whole way through. The pie menu has some classics on it, with a couple eccentric choices if you feel like rolling the dice. I'll be back before long.Highly recommend the Banana Brandy pie. Didn't even think to ever make a pie with a Nilla Wafer crust, but it took me straight back to my childhood.Highly recommend the Pork Appetizer, and the Duck Pasta. The Elote dip appetizer is hefty and very good.“

“If you're a fan of Vikings, heavy metal soundtracks, and expertly crafted cocktails, LBM in Lakewood, Ohio is a Valhalla you cannot miss. This Norse-themed bar is a haven for those who love a little food and alcohol mixed with their metal.The cocktail menu is a true testament to LBM's creativity. They've got classics with unique twists and seasonal selections that'll blow your mind. Be sure to try the "Doomin Sun" – It will make you feel like a true warrior. If you love something a little different, the "Savage Garden" is a vibrant, herbaceous delight that'll awaken your senses.But don't think LBM only caters to cocktail connoisseurs. Their burger is one of the best in Lakewood – juicy, cooked to perfection, topped with all the good stuff. Pair it with a side of their crispy fries, and you're in for a feast worthy of an Asgardian celebration.The Viking atmosphere is a major plus. Get ready to immerse yourself in a world of rustic wood, Norse imagery, and a soundtrack of epic metal tunes that sets the perfect mood. LBM is definitely a place where you embrace your inner warrior while enjoying great drinks and food.Highly recommended for a unique and delicious night out!“

“Crispy chicken sandwich was wonderful. Fries were my favorite kind, and the side salad was perfectly executed. Drinks were refreshing and creative, lavender in the Pomona was a subtle point of interest. Brisket sandwich was amazing. I'll be back soon“

“Wanted to check out a restaurant we haven't tried yet, and I'm glad we chose C&S. Very impressed with the vegetarian/vegan options. We split a vegan Caesar salad, vegan meatball, and vegan lasagna. All were amazing. The meatballs were my favorite as they were seasoned very well. I think we'll try one of their pizzas next time!“

“A cool bar with 70s vibes tucked under mahalls bowling. The seating area is small with a few tables and couches. There are also a few seats at the bAr. Would recommend making a reservation as it can fill up quickly. They offer a variety of classic cocktails and signature ones that are very creative. They do not offer any food items. With the bowling alley right next to it and loud music, it was a bit hard to hear conversations but overall a solid spot for drinks.“

“I love this place! Hadn't been in a couple years and went the other night for a drink and some apps.....we just missed happy hour, but everything is worth the price! The blood orange margaritas are amazing, and the brussel sprouts are soooo good! We're definitely going back for the brunch!Our bartender Will was the best. Gave recommendations on his fav's and was attentive but never intrusive.Of course the view is gorgeous. Even sitting at the bar you get an amazing view of Downtown.“

“Friends and I had an enjoyable dining experience at Vosh. The patio is absolutely gorgeous. Inside dining area was rather cold so I am glad outside dining was available. The grouper tacos ? I ordered were nothing special; it wasn't worth the price. But the truffle fries ? and herb crusted mozzarella were very tasty. The pear gorgonzola ? was the best and our server made sure to separate the order into 3 plates to share. Our server was attentive and staff helped each other out.“

“Cloak and Dagger's atmosphere and aesthetic is among the best in the Cleveland area. I took my fiancé out to celebrate her scholarship and we were treated as usual with the utmost attention and professionalism. The servers were attentive, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic and the menu was blooming and interesting. Our cocktails and food were the perfect portion and complimented each other quite effectively. We can't wait to return again this summer.“

“Everything was spot on. the wine was nice at a reasonable price pappardelle pasta was just incredible... perfectly flavored with homemade noodles. Only downside was sitting facing west toward the west side of the patio the sun came in and blasted us on our way down. Seasonal issue. Will return.“

“If you are in Cleveland you must come to Society Lounge. Not only are the cocktails incredible, but the staff is even better. From the atmosphere to the interaction with bartenders you won’t be disappointed. Can’t speak highly enough about this place, and if you know a thing or two about a cocktail….you’d best stop here“

“One of my favorite places for a bite in Tremont! The LIT burger is the absolute best. I also suggest the Power Salad and the Blood Fountain cocktail is what dreams are made of! Don’t pass on the tavern fries. You really can’t go wrong with anything!“

“I got my food to go after I’d had a cocktail. The swinging benches across the street are a perfect place to sit and eat your divine tastes of FAT CAT’s … I had the salmon burger and Brussels sprouts and a Purple haze cocktail at the bar. The sandwich was literally perfect! The avocado was the perfect touch! Always a treat! Tastes and Travels gives FAT CATS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Amazing atmosphere! This is my second time coming down to this unique little gem. a out of this world cocktails and convo, Noah the bartender is the coolest! I watched the game and enjoyed some new drinks I’ve never had before, was a great vibe and the alcohol selection is top tier.“

“We went around 1:30pm on March7th. Food was very good. Had wine and cocktails. Service was outstanding. Female server and she was probably the best server I have ever had. I would only recommend that there were more appetizers. Bread was outstanding as well as the croissants. Vegetarian dishes were very good as well as the Broccoli melt. We were able to find parking on the street.“

“See Gina (Woodmere location) if you want great service. My husband and I (from MD) and my brother and his wife (OH) came here to celebrate my birthday. We had an awesome time! Gina was very informative about the restaurant and the menu choices. She was fantastic! Thank you Gina! We’ll be back!“

“I hate alcohol. I usually avoid it if I can. And when I can stomach a drink, I usually don't like it--I just tolerate it. But I liked drinking the cocktails at Porco. Highly recommend the Pink Flamingo for my fellow alcohol-haters. Also, my husband's came with this little guy in it. 5 stars.“

“Absolutely amazing place. We drop our dog off here 1-2 days a week for daycare and she loves it (always trying to pull to go to taps and tails when we walk by). She also comes back very tired. They take care of the dogs here and always have people watching out for them. All the dogs here have also been friendly and I haven't had any bad experiences.“

“We loved our brunch at Avo today! I came with a group of friends and kids before a Playhouse Square's A Christmas Carol, and our waiter was amazing! I think his name is Matthew and he got all 9 of our orders totally correct, even with some crazy changes the kids made. The drinks were amazing, portions were large and we will be back!! He even made sure to get our food and checks out quickly so we could make the show in time.“

“This is one of the most hospitable Hispanic restaurants in the Gordon Square Arts district! I would suggest going over the menu upon arrival...the music, energy and crowd can be a little overwhelming upon first visit. The servers cannot wait to meet you at the front door.The "Prickly Pear" is the most Deliciously Beautiful Drink they offer for a nice, relaxing"Turnt" before you eat.I've tasted everything on the menu...my favorite with the most"Bang for your Buck" is the "Chicken Chorizo Chimichanga'!“

“I was looking for a local Mexican food place and saw how good the reviews were. My boyfriend and I went for lunch. From the warmth of the tortilla chips to the freshness of each of our entrees, I was impressed. Service was very attentive, and I enjoyed the music and decor a lot. We will be back.“

“They place does not serve any food nor snacks, but you are welcome to bring food in. Has a lot of beverage options if you're a drinker. Very nice atmosphere. You can bring the kids before 9pm or have a date night after 9pm. If you love games, great place to have fun with everyone.Vegetarian options: No foodDietary restrictions: No FoodParking: Very difficult to find parking. Do not park your car in Dave's supermarket your car will be towed.Kid-friendliness: Kid Friendly“

“The best neighborhood bar!!! Staff went above and beyond for me for my birthday!Go a handful of times and Tom the bartender will remember you- he is the best!!Food and drinks always fast and great! Can’t recommend the staff of Moes enough“

“It was a brisk evening in the city, and we were desperate to warm our souls. A few hours to spare before our concert, this was the nourishment we longed for. The music thumped and sparkled, while the room felt warm like home. Simple is king! Small food and drink menu with no complaints. I weap for the missing star: In these lean times, it would be tough to frequent.“

“La Casa Tequila brings the authentic flavors of Mexican street food and culture to the city in a lively yet rustic setting. Stepping through the oak doors is like walking into a traditional cantina in a small Mexican pueblo, with arched doorways, colorful ceramic tiles, and decor paying homage to Mexican folk art and traditions.The menu features classic Mexican fare made with high-quality, fresh ingredients. We started with guacamole made tableside, bursting with flavor from chunks of ripe avocado, lime juice and chili. For our mains, we ordered tacos al pastor topped with grilled pineapple salsa and chicken fajitas served with warm flour tortillas, homemade pico de gallo and sour cream. The tacos were charred just right and packed full of flavor, and the fajitas came sizzling on a skillet loaded with grilled onions, peppers and tender chicken.The restaurant offers a wide selection of well-crafted margaritas made with premium tequilas, as well as Mexican beers on draft. Live mariachi bands perform on weekends, filling the dining room with upbeat ranchera music and getting patrons up dancing between courses.Overall, La Casa Tequila transports you to the colorful streets and vibrant culture of Mexico through welcoming service, authentic cuisine and lively atmosphere. It's a great place to head for an evening of authentic Mexican food, margaritas and mariachi music. I will definitely be returning for more tastes of Mexican street cuisine and festive evenings.“

“My son and I enjoyed the French onion soup, the seafood chowder and the maple bacon Wagyu burger with truffle fries. The service was wonderful. The food was absolutely delicious and it was pleasantly quiet where we could have a conversation without screaming.We will definitely return to sample other things on the menu, especially if Vitt would be there as our server.“

“Overall an excellent meal & service was great. For this night (a Friday), they definitely needed to flip tables for the next reservation, so if you are looking to linger longer, you'll have to move to the bar. But always great food known for their fresh fish selections.“
