My wife and I love coming to Press Club to have nice cocktails and listen to good music. The house cocktails and small bites are solid. Most importantly, the staff is always very welcoming and friendly. Frank behind the bar is fantastic. It's hard to walk in, so reservations are a must.

I frequent Press Club often. I've never had a bad experience. The staff are all kind/nice, the food is great and the drinks are top notch. I'm always happy to return!

Cool, intimate cocktail bar that has the right touch of vibes. The food and cocktails were not mind-blowing; however, the ambiance made up for that. All-in-all, I would go back. It's a great 3rd or 4th date spot...

We went to celebrate my sister's 30th birthday and I was delighted to see they greeted us with a round of drinks and a little sign to recognize the occasion. We ordered another round of drinks after that and an appetizer. they were extremely busy so our app order wound up being forgotten, but it was okay because we were going to dinner after so it wasn't a big deal and the server was very apologetic and accommodating. Overall a great experience and I will be coming back!

Five stars as always. This place has incredible drinks and Michelin level service. There is a reason the post names it a top five spot for cocktails.

The staff at press club was fantastic! I want to highlight that owner really took care of us and was so sweet! The team was able to accommodate my party despite a scheduling error on my end. Overall, a great experience and I appreciated the personal touches in celebration of my birthday. Very happy to have been able to visit and enjoy this amazing spot!! Will absolutely visit again!

I had the summer in November and it was phenomenal. It reminds me of rum punch. I'm coming back for that ! I haven't tried the food yet.

I had such a great time at Press Club! My friends and I went for drinks and small bites to celebrate my birthday, and everything was wonderful. The ambience and music were spot-on, the drinks were delicious, and the food was satisfying without being too heavy. The service was excellent—our host was warm and welcoming—and they even surprised me with a small birthday card, which was such a thoughtful touch that made me feel extra special. My favorites of the night were the Paris, Tokyo, and the shrimp tempura!

I had high expectations for Press Club and it exceeded those expectations. The service was excellent and the ambiance was perfect for a date night. The drinks were really unique, but they were delicious. I will be back.

Wow. These bartenders are the real deal. There’s nothing they can’t do and everything tastes like it’s been entered into a competition. Highly recommended coming early as it’s small and can get busy.

This was my second visit. My first time was during the opening, mainly for cocktails, but this time I had the chance to explore the full menu—and it was a truly fantastic experience! From the warm hospitality and welcome drink upon arrival to the intimate ambiance, delicious food, and flavorful cocktails, everything made for a wonderful evening. It also happened to be my birthday, and I was thrilled to find a birthday note/card waiting at the table—a thoughtful gesture that made the night feel extra special. Working in hospitality at a luxury hotel myself, I can honestly say this level of personalization is what defines true hospitality. We also received several table touches from (what I believe was) the GM, which added even more to the overall experience. I can't wait to return. And P.S.—Ana (Ah-nah) was an outstanding waitress!
