Nice neighborhood location with a good bourbon selection.

I found this place a couple of years ago when I lived in the area. The cocktails used to be so good. You could tell the folks behind the bar truly cared about their craft and there was real consistency and quality in the drinks. I stopped by tonight for the first time in probably 10 months and the quality was just not there. They had the exact same drinks on the menu but they weren’t the delicious, well thought out and executed cocktails I remember. I’m not trying to diss the younger women working behind the bar but the quality is NOT there anymore. It was Barbie night? I ordered two of the same drinks and they tasted completely different and not at all as they had in the past. Please. Fix. This.This bar is such a gem and should be cared for and maintained as such. Please fix the quality and focus on the CRAFT of the cocktails as it should be.

Do not go on a weekend. We spent 2 hours there for dinner and it took an hour just to get our fries. The small dining room has a whiskey room vibe but the two servers were also bartending and the drinks and food were so slow. The food was good but not worth the wait imo. They said the kitchen was backed up but it appeared they did not staff properly at all.

A hidden gem with a speakeasy vibe. Very hipster. The bartenders (Jenna and Riley) are awesome and they definitely know their craft...craft cocktails!! Love the ambience! It's a very nice escape from the sweltering summer heat!

The drinks are good and service is decent as long as it's not too busy. I LOVED this place when it first opened and had the speakeasy vibe, playing "post modern jukebox" music, etc. But, now they play the same pop music as the sports bar in front that they're connected to. It totally ruins the atmosphere.

Ownership and staff are aces. Open late (7) days a week as well.

Great hidden gem hidden behind a sub par bar. They have a great selection of bottles to choose from and a great bartender. Great place to hang out with friends. Just don't try that drink from Brazil that smells like green beans

Gave this place a try. Very comfortable bar. Decor felt a little old time prohibition era meets comfy Meet up! Drinks were perfectly on point...thank you Jane and Shahana! Service was impeccable

Some of the best drinks I've had by far! They have great drink specials during the week, cozy seating area and an entire wall of different liquors.

The drinks here are beyond AMAZING! Bartender was just wonderful, poor girl ran her tail off. We ordered food, words cannot describe how BEYOND disappointed we were. The bar itself was busy but hardly anyone here ordering food and yet it took us OVER an hour to get our food and when the food arrived, the Buffalo cauliflower was just warm NOT HOT! 3 of us ordered street tacos and the meat inside the tacos was as cold as if it had just come out of the refrigerator and was TOTALLY COLD!!!! Do NOT eat here....drinks are amazing but whoever is the cook in the kitchen needs to be served food in a not busy place over an hour later and have it served cold like it just got out of the refrigerator. Will never eat here again but will definitely come back for drinks!

Yes and yes. It's like someone took their old garage and went all out to turn the inside into a modern, speakeasy type, cozy and dimly lit home bar. Clean. With some tv's to watch the game...some bar top table seats, and some booths. Pool tables and darts are in the middle section that connects this bar to the rum bar next door. Super friendly service. Expertly crafted drinks. Specials are on hand so great prices. Vast selections of whiskeys and cool, unique cocktails. Food is pretty decent. Nachos are a must. Old fashioned cocktails can be served smoked, with a nice ice cube that just...turns into a nice long, and smooth sipper. If I could just bring my bbq here. Maybe. But my amigos and I really come here for that "campfire stories." Toasted marshmallow and all. Hope it stays on the menu. Love it here.

EDIT 10/23/22: Best place for quality spirits and great mixology, in the area. Rockstar bartenders, excellent service, clean place. If only they could get their food right. ORIGINAL: Quaint, incredible variety of whiskey, lots of wood, darkly lit, definitely has a speakeasy vibe. This is my first time at a craft bar, and while I enjoyed the drinks I had, $12 for less than 10oz drinks is a little steep. I didn't try any food but the menu looks appetizing. There was only one guy taking care of the place. But everything came out on time and service was efficient. There are some happy hour specials that I may look into next time...yes, there will be a next time.

Well hidden behind a dive bar with an inflatable unicorn as its stage decor. Boar & Buffalo was surprisingly full of conversation and laughter, the smell of sage filled the air as the skilled bartender masterfully executed her craft. Jenny single handedly managed 18 consumers of libations that traveled here from near and far. Mayhem Approved ☆☆☆☆☆
