This is a great place to get some craft cocktails.

Very pricey. I got an alcoholic pillow of foam with my midori sour.

Modernist is one of if not the best bar/lounge in the Central Valley

One of my favorites spots in Fresno. The drinks 10/10. The staff 10/10. The vibes 10/10. Love this place so much it’s a weekly stop at this point! Had the BEST time during the PRIDE party! 10/10 DJ and always love to support local LGBTQ+ causes. Just wish they had more events like this year round cause I’d be first in line every time!

Love this bar! Friendly, excellent drinks, perfect ambiance. Saw one review that insinuated if you aren’t white you are going to get bad service. As a proud brown woman I can say with full confidence that person was absolutely wrong. This is my go to place and will continue to be for the foreseeable future 😘

Quit pushing that pride message on people. Idc what people do on their own time, just dont pressure it on us by promoting it at the bar or on your instagram. Im like Most i just want to go and have a drink and chill. I will not go back and will not recommend this place to anyone.

This place is what I consider the pinnacle of cocktails in Fresno. I've been a few times and I've been pleasantly surprised every time. I consider myself a drink enthusiast and wow, they just seem to do everything right. Also, extremely clear ice. 👏👏👏

If you are visiting Fresno from a large city with legit cocktail bars, don't waste your time here. The drinks I tried at this joint all fell flat, some being outright terrible. The service and ambiance were fine, if you like listening to the Eagles in your fancy bar. However, if you're altogether impressed by a bartender with hand tattoos and hipster facial hair?!? You'll love this place.

Love stopping by here for a drink. Sierra took care of our group and she was super awesome and knowledgeable! Thank you :)
Wow!!! Some of the best cocktails I have and I'm not from Fresno. I live in LA and go back and forth to Hollywood and San Diego and there is genuinely no match. Aside from the fantastic drinks, the staff is amazing.
For anyone doing business travel, this is a must!

I stopped in for the first time last night with a friend before going to the Grizzlies game. I was really delighted by the extensive, creative menu, the delicious drinks, and especially the very friendly service and attention from the staff. (I've been to a place in Tower with a really snotty bartender and I have zero desire to return there.) My friend and I will definitely be back, as there is much on the menu we are excited to try. Lovely décor and atmosphere in a cozy spot, bringing something special to downtown Fresno. Great job, Modernist!

Solid spot! Very full bar selection. As a tequila guy I had the whole Fortaleza “flight.” Great vibe overall most importantly. Super friendly bartenders, very eclectic clientele. Close to Fresno Ballpark too a nice plus.

They have some truly world class cocktails on the menu. The bartenders are super knowledgeable and love what they do,
