Title: Unwelcoming and Rude Service
If you’re looking for a dining experience filled with confusion, condescension, and attitude, Rocks and Drams is the place for you!
We walked in and were told by the manager himself to “sit anywhere that isn’t reserved.” Simple enough, right? Wrong. After choosing a table that wasn’t marked as reserved, the same manager promptly came over and told us to move to the bar. When we politely pointed out that he had just told us we could sit here, he decided to grace us with a lovely display of passive-aggressive comments and unnecessary attitude.
The hostility was palpable, and it felt like he was more interested in power-tripping than providing good service. If this is how they treat paying customers, I can’t imagine how they handle actual challenges.
Save your time, money, and sanity. There are plenty of other places to enjoy a meal or drink without being made to feel like an inconvenience for simply following directions. Rocks and Drams? More like Rocks and Drama.

Great outside of busy times. We've come here several times on a Friday, only to leave after we sat down since no one would take our order for 15+ minutes.
Drinks are a 5/5 if you get to try them.

I initially reached out to Nicole, the owner of Rocks & Drams, on September 5, three months before my holiday party, with the intention of securing their venue. After a few weeks of correspondence, Nicole assured me that a quote would be provided by the end of the day, but after several follow-ups, I still hadn’t received a contract. I continued to provide the requested details as they came up, but communication seemed to go cold.
After a couple weeks went by, I contacted them through their website, to initiate contact with anyone else who could help. Nicole finally decided to respond, “in reviewing our event calendar, the date we had discussed has been booked & confirmed for another private party." This was just one month before my event—far too late for me to have a reasonable choice of another venue with such short notice.
I’m extremely disappointed with the lack of professionalism and follow-through from Rocks & Drams. I had hoped to work with them, but after this experience, I would not recommend their services to anyone. Perhaps this is indicative of larger issues, as I’ve heard that the business has recently faced some challenges. Regardless, my experience has left me questioning their reliability and customer service.
I was recently hired to DJ at Rocks & Drams and I had the best experience. The entire staff was very welcoming and friendly. The vibe is great for date night or signature cocktails with friends to start your night off downtown. Can't wait to be back!

This is my new favorite bar and bartender!
From the second we walked in, we were greeted by our bartender Axel. He was a wealth of knowledge on drinks, food, and suggestions for other local food and drinks.
Axel makes a wide variety of custom cocktails that are delicious. As he’s making the drinks he’s telling you all about the different ingredients he uses and why. As well as gets to know you.
The vibe is really relaxed and I truly cannot say enough great things about the location, drinks, and service.
We can’t wait to go back and I highly recommend you check them out.
