I hosted a corporate event for 100 people in the Gin Mill Lounge space and everyone had a wonderful time. Jason and his staff were attentive and the space was nicely appointed. We would love to host another event here in the future. Highly recommend!

Came in for an old fashioned after doing a quick search on yelp! I like looking for the "best old fashioned" but realize that is all super subjective. There was absolutely nothing special about this old fashioned. I think the most disappointing thing about this drink was they muddled the luxardo cherry into the drink. The only place so far that I found that actually had luxardo cherries WHY would you muddle it. Ugh. The inside was cool. It really could have been a place I would frequent because of its proximity to work. But bummed they just don't have my drink. No biggie there are other places

Good place, nice pool tables and shuffleboard in the back.Parking and accessibility is not great, but not terrible either.Wheelchair accessibility: If you can find parking and get through the entrance airlock, it's fine. There's not really any nearby accessible parking though, and that's a problem.

[Gin Lounge] Add a mirror and paper towel dispenser (to both bathrooms)...Increase the brightness by 25%, remove some of the lounge couches and chairs. Add games(darts, pool etc.) and increase the size of the dance floor.Think about how many bars have a 3:00 liquor license, take full advantage of it and maximize this space.If you were a 1:00 bar, I respect the lounge vibe, but because you are one of the elite bars in this town with a 3:00 license, make your presence known.Love Gin Mill, but I want Gin Mill Lounge to rival every other 3:00 bar. Great vibes!

An inviting bar. Fun bartender who knows his stuff and a great conversationalist.

A great place to hang with friends, shoot some pool, and throw some darts. Nice outdoor area too.

Gin Mill is always a great time with perfect drinks in each pour and beer to the rim! Super cute out back area also and pool tables!
John Nicholson
Love the decor, and atmosphere. Have great local beers on tap and a great drink menu
The staff did a great job with a large crowd. The Levitt music was moved inside. For a surprise opening with a large crowd, they did a yomens job.???

A group of us us went to see Davina and the Vagabonds there. Never had been there before but was a good experience. It became packed because of rain outside but full house and great band.

Last nights experience was disappointing.It had been a few years since I was at the Gin Mill (or Springfield for that matter.) On previous visits, I used to look forward to getting a craft cocktail here. The mixologists were experimenting with cool stuff and had everything they needed to put out some great cocktails.Last night went like this:Me: "Do you have a cocktail menu?"Bartender: "No" while looking at me as if I couldn't be serious asking that question.Me: "OK what do you currently like making?" Thinking he would be experimenting with something.Him: "I don't know"Awkward pause.Him: "I get asked to do a lot of martinis. Lemon drops"Me: realizing I better stick with what he knows "OK, I'll have that"The drink wasnt good. I didn't finish it because frankly it's not worth the calories. Switched to Titos and soda. Called it a night.Probably won't be back.

My boyfriend and I took a weekend trip to Springfield recently and stopped here on a Friday night. We really loved the place. The bartender was friendly and mixed us good drinks. I liked that is wasn't crowded at the time we went (11pm-ish) and the music wasn't blasting loud. We could here each other talk. We hope to come back sometime.
