There is a legitimate cocktail bar program hiding in here!“

“Was staying at a nearby Airbnb and ended up stopping into Ludlow Tavern—honestly such a solid find.

We just went in for a couple drinks and ended up staying for dinner too. The drinks were on point, bartender was super chill, and the whole place just had a really easygoing vibe. Nothing felt forced or over the top, just a good spot to hang out.

If you’re in the area or staying nearby, it’s a great spot to pop into for a drink (or a few) and some good food.“

This is my favorite neighborhood. Hang out. Parking on the street or across the street in the Paige lot, or behind building on free parking deck.“

The decor is to DIE for - literally bury me at Prim when I die. Love, a new regular for sure.“

Never want the night to end whenever I'm here, love it love it!“

While they have a wide bourbon selection, of course, they do have other drinks, and cocktails, too. The cocktails are phenomenal and unique!

The people are great and the vibe is very accepting and welcoming. The bartender was so kind and attentive. It is a quaint but beautifully kept place, and I really enjoyed my afternoon there! The happy hour deals were nice, too!“

“Nice neighborhood bar serving good drinks and pub style food. The food menu is limited somewhat but the taste and quality was very good. Happy hour went until 7 pm and they had live music on the weekend staring at 8 pm. Service was good but tight with the bartenders mixing drinks and serving the food from the kitchen. Lots of regular patrons present .“
