To be clear, there is no food, it's just drinks. However I love the location, the ambiance, and said drinks. They put care into creating these recipes, and just as much care into making them. Service is wonderful, and the live music is great. Be prepared to put some money down for drinks, average price off happy hour for the drinks is in the neighborhood of 16 bucks. We spent about 80ish bucks for two drinks each between my wife and I.

We saw someone complain about the $10 cover charge for the band but also saw someone say the bands here were amazing so we took the plunge and GLAD WE DID!We were happy to pay for such delightful entertainment and the cocktails were amazing! We’ll be back!

We were told to come here by the Wine Experience. There are some amazing authentic cocktails made here! This place is super unique! The ambience and service is incredible. Danielle served us and she seemed incredibly knowledgeable about the drinks and what to recommend based on our preferences. I highly recommend this place!!

Stumbled across this place and i absolutely fell in love! They play oldies and their outdoor patio on a rainy day is such a vibe. Definitely a hole in the wall and it needs its recognition so here I am taking it to yelp :)

My two friends and I were not let inside because they were at capacity. We waited outside until a large group left, at which point they told us we still couldn’t come in because they were really behind on orders. It’s baffling to me that we couldn’t even sit inside (there were plenty of open tables and couches). After waiting outside for about 45 minutes, we left. This was my first time here and I’d hesitate to give it another shot.

Had a party of 7, 5 women and 2 men. Was told to wait 20 minutes to go in because they were at full capacity but someone walked up and was able to go in. We saw two tables open too. Then the two guys behind us were able to go in right away. Not sure what that was about but we just left bc we felt unwelcome.

I love it when they have DJBaddJ!!! I wish they had more vegetarian options on the menu, and I definitely miss the hot buttered rum. The bartending staff is very attentive. Great place to hangout with friends.

Lame. That's all I'm going to say. Not a fan. Don't see why people come to this place. 20-30 minute wait times to buy a drink. And they charged me a cover charge to get in the door apparently for a dance dj when no one is actually dancing.

I popped in recently on a Sunday, upon recommendation for live music. They had an incredible jazz band. The atmosphere was amazing. They hadan incredible selection of spirits. So many I'd never seen before. The colors, the vibe, the staff...fabulous! I definitely reccomend this place and will be returning next time I'm in town!

Great drinks! Came here with my friends and had an amazing time. Bartender was attentive and helpful when deciding what to order. We went on a Thursday and which it was not so crowded. There was also like music playing from a local DJ. The ambience was great. Definitely my type of vibe, as it offered a modern & hipster twist.

So I love that they have cheez-it lol, the drinks are good but you have to acknowledge that this place is a little bit on the bougie side, so the drinks are expensive and you'll get more ice than liquor lol. But again the drinks are tasty, I love the decor and they weigh that they design it after Carbones. It's more of a chill spot. They have nice plans and nice couch sitting area in their patio is really pretty. The service can be a little tricky at times. I feel like they're not very warm Welcoming till you get to like talk to them and kinda break them in.. they do have live music and sometimes they do have a cover charge. I came in on a Tuesday and they had jazz with no cover charge. Hanged out in the bar area and then set outside for a while. Pearl hour is located right on Lighthouse, The parking is on street parking.. I have not had any of their food but I come here usually for drinks.

Pearl hour is a cute bar with delicious drinks & the playlist was really good tonight. I'm excited to come back for one of their drag events eventually! The bar tenders were attentive even when we went to sit on the couch which was nice.
