What an incredible collection of brown- 65+ pages of incredible whiskeys, bourbons and more. Multiple bottles of pappy if you're into that. I had a blast selecting (at random, but nothing disappointed!) and my friend got the flight to help guide him, which he loved.Food was fine, acceptable, but for the cool environment I would have figured higher grade in the cuisine. Admittedly the snacks/small plates were far higher quality than the main dishes so maybe the intention was to drink and small plate.Service was good, they made sure we had what we needed but I would have loved a bit more enthusiasm for such an amazing collection.Overall great experience and would go again!

Great food, fantastic drinks. Definitely recommend!The staff was very gracious when I hit traffic and my party was a few minutes late. I hated that, but they were very kind and didn't make a big deal out of the 10 minutes lost.Staff was attentive without being overbearing. Drinks were great.Even on a Wednesday night, the place was hopping. It was a little bit hard to hear my party at times, but it wasn't overly noisy or loud. Just lively.

Sadly, the roof is only open on Thursday and the weekends…?

Jack Rose Black History Month Pop-Up, it was a great event.

Remember when you were a kid and your parents would take you to a candy store that had about 6000 options and then tell you that you could spend $5 dollars and then you’d go from excitement to standing there in overwhelmed decision paralysis for what seemed like hours? Yep, Jack Rose is that memory revisited and relived. In the best possible way. An unreal selection of every possible mash bill, age statement, cask offering, series, one-off, and price point. Friendly and knowledgeable bartenders and a warm atmosphere make for a great place to hang as long as your wallet and/or partner will let you. Save your allowance, then take it all and a spirit of adventure - as well as a fully charged phone for your obsessive scrolling through the 70+ page menu - to this whisk(e)y nirvana.

Very nice place worth a look, with a wonderful collection of drinks that cover the entire walls of the building. We were treated to very pleasant service with a waiter who took the time to take care of us and with whom we were able to chat. He is very very jovial. The food was, although conventional, very tasty. The meat was excellent. In short, we had an excellent time in this bar-restaurant which we would recommend.

They have a robust menu of whiskey with flights. They are small inside but take reservations. The food menu is small but delicious. They have a specialty menu as well. Things tend to rotate in and out. My old small complaint was the fries. They were very bland compared to everything else, no seasoning, just mid. I would swap em out next time. Burger was 20$ drinks about 15isssh$. The adonia- and broken fig drinks were delicious.

Perfect place for Whisky or Whiskey aficionado. They have exclusive and rare bottles on the menu. I would suggest first timers to look at the menu in advance because it has a selection of approximately 3,000 different bottles. The atmosphere and food is great, the service is very good but it can get a bit slow on busy days.

John listened to what we wanted and suggested other bourbons or ryes for a cocktail we had ordered to not waste higher quality spirits. It was a fun time!

Jack Rose is primarily a whiskey bar. Most people come here because they either are genuinely a high-end whiskey conisseur with money to blow, or they want other people to think they're a high-end whiskey conisseur with money to blow.Aside from that, the fried chicken skins are one of my favorite guilty pleasures and the only reason I ever come here. All of the food is good, but it is also overpriced. Attached pictures show the scallops entree (3 scallops on grits), roasted olives and chicken skins.While there is nothing offensive or inappropriate here, it would be in very poor taste to bring children.Kid-friendliness: I don't know what the place's policy is about kids, but it's certainly not intended to seat or serve children.

I've only been to the saloon. If you like whiskey, you're going to have a good time! Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The smash burger was delicious. Is it expensive? Yes. My only gripe is that the bathroom's could be in better shape.

Fantastic atmosphere and service! Our waiter gave great recommendations. It reminds me of a library, just with alcohol. lol. It’s pricey, but worth it, and the appetizers were yummy. Such a fun night out!
