The Double Standard is a restaurant that participates in the Miracle on Telegraph event, now in its third year. The atmosphere is lively and festive, with bartenders dressed in character and serving holiday-themed cocktails. On a Wednesday night, the restaurant is filled with people in festive costumes or bike shorts, and the wait to order can be long. The holiday cocktail menu includes options such as Hot Buttered Rum, Jingle Balls Nog, and Christmas Cricket, served in cute mugs that are available for purchase. The Christmas Cricket cocktail, made with tequila, vanilla liqueur, minty amaro, coco pandan, cream, and mole bitters, is a standout option. However, some customers found the choice of cup to be less than ideal. The bartenders are friendly and quick at their job. The indoor and outdoor areas of the restaurant are decked out with Christmas decorations such as lights and wrapping paper. The prices of the holiday cocktails range from $14 to $18. The Double Standard is a great place to get into the holiday spirit.
