50 Best Cocktail Bars near Florence

“Everyone is super friendly at this bar, drinks are great, and the food is delicious. 😋“

“After long day driving, stoped in Florence for the night. We decided to get some dinner this place was a surprise wasn’t sure how it would be since parking lot was empty but the food did not disappoint. The service was quick food was hot. Waitress didn’t speak much English but she was very sweat and understood what we wanted. If you like Mexican def give it a try.“

“I ordered the Ribeye Steak. I’ve never eaten one any better anywhere! You should go try one👍“

“Fantastic bourbon, cocktails, coffee, atmosphere, tour, and bartenders. What more could you want?“

“I have never fallen in love with a brand more quickly. The vibe was beyond amazing - the colors, the textures, the lighting, the music! The service was 10/10 - top notch. The cocktail menu is laid out like a story, and the writing is cheeky and clever. The cocktail matrix at the beginning of the menu was so helpful - I wish more cocktail bars did this. Oh, and the menu itself? Printed on thick paper with a smooth, matte cover. The cocktails - with alcohol and NA - were innovative and delicious. They’ve thought of all the details and have executed them perfectly. Bravo, King Pigeon! Can’t wait to see you again soon.“

“Chris gave a great tour. Great knowledge of the history of the site and its significance with bourbon. Also recommend the French toas and a brunch cocktail.“

“Chill vibes, great staff.. phenomenal drinks“

“great drinks amazing bartenders good food!!!“

“Experience would have been perfect, but service was terrible. We were visiting Cincy and the hotel told us about Härth. We sat toward the front of the bar & nobody came to take our order after being there for about 10 minutes. My husband went to the bar & tried to order. We were told that a server would be around. Another 10 minutes & we didn’t even see a server milling around. We tried to order at the bar again & bartender said he’d bring the drinks. Finally got them after another 10 minutes. Not one time did a server come by in the hour we were there. Tried to order a second round at bar & we were told the same thing. Waited for a server, who never showed, so we closed our tab of 1 drink a piece after being there for over an hour. I had a coffee drink & it was delicious. The music & the vibe were great. I so wish the service would have been better or even a bit friendlier. I will go back when we visit again. I just hope they have more people working or a new bartender.“

“Fun, intimate little bar with a "Hemingway" vibe. Imaginative themed cocktails named for Hemingway characters & events... really charming bartender and a dark "tropical" environment. (Bring your own snacks) Enjoyed this great "moody" hangout. Pineapple Upside Down Daiquiri was especially good!“

“Celebrating my 65th birthday at Opal. Everything from our waiter Nick to the atmosphere and food were amazing. They made us feel special and wonderful. We highly recommend Opal Rooftop.“

“Sai, the bartender does a fantastic job providing great service and interactions with the patrons throughout the night.

Always friendly and treating customers with respect while having a smile on his face even if the bar gets very busy and overwhelming,“

“We just held a large party for my moms birthday here. I never leave reviews but felt like I should! This place is perfect for parties! Staff are great - Jess the manager is very responsive for planning the event and Yogi was awesome before and during the party !! Definitely recommend.“

“The bartender was awesome and crafted a lovely mocktail for me. Nice outdoor seating area and casual atmosphere.“

“Wonderful Vibe. Great atmosphere!“

“We rented the Queens Quarters for my sister's surprise 40th bday. Booking and planning was super easy. Staff was great. We used their catering thru Thunderdome and chose Bakersfield OTR. TONS of food. Take home containers. Everything was fresh and delish. Bartenders were attentive and provided outstanding service. Everything went as planned. She was surprised! All guests had a great night. I would definitely use their services again for another event. I highly recommend you consider this venue for your next event. Thank you for everything!“

“Awesome, 1st time ❣️………we will definitely be back!!“

“Not open right now but soon!!“

“What an amazing place to hold birthday party and a night out! Over the weekend we hosted my husband’s birthday party at Ripples event space. They were amazing from the service to the food and they were very accommodating to all of our requests! Trish and Matt did an amazing job with service and then everyone kept going on about the food! Way to go!!! Thank you so much for an amazing night out!“

“A long time, top notch cocktail bar in downtown Cincinnati (in the Over-The-Rhine area). Nice lounge / sofa seating. Karaoke too (check their socials).

They have great specialty cocktails, but can make most anything, including zero proof mocktails (they also have N-A beer).

It's 50 feet from the 12th and Main streetcar stop (also called Hanke Exchange Station).“

“I’ve been passing by The Lackman for so long now and finally gave it a shot. They did NOT disappoint! I was interested in their seasonal drinks and after asking the bartender some questions I started with an espresso martini. It was smooth and what I would consider PERFECT, then I switched to their harvest spritz which was light and delicious especially if you love apple cider like me.

The space was unbelievably clean and the perfect setting for meeting friends or a date. I will for sure be back and recommend you give it a shot when looking for your next cocktail bar!“

“The food is amazing and if you like guacamole try the chunky guacamole. The pastor, carnitas, steak veggie and chicken tacos are so good. The Tijuana steak tacos so good. We have tried the burritos so delicious, fresh and authentic Mexican food.“

“Shareable menu items that are tasty and unique…smelt fries and duck fat fried potatoes. Delicious. Great service and oh yeah - Longfellow charm all the way.“

“Excellent service and Food. Compliments to the Chef and staff. Had French Pork Chop. Absolutely phenomenal! Fried Green Tomatoes - best I’ve ever had! Martini was also perfect! Very classy place! Highly recommend! Wish there was a location near me!“

“I love this place. The atmosphere is beautiful!! Their patio area just amazing!“

“Come and enjoy nice people and great food“

“Outstanding in every way. Stopped in for a much-needed meal on the high route from Nashville to Philly.. could not have been more impressed with both food and service. One of the best meals I’ve had in a while.. everything was superb.“

“over 200 different gins. good tapas. live music.“

“This year we have made it a point to try more restaurants downtown. This place is Heaven. Absolutely the best restaurant we have experienced in a long time: upscale casual vibe, strong flavorful drinks (try the Distrito Federal!), and the food... lord... the Moroccan Eggplant served tableside is sultry, sweet, smooth and savory. We also enjoyed the Coquilles appetizer with perfectly cooked scallops and 1 bite of the Davidson burger raised the bar for all of the local competition. Shout-out to our wonderful server, Alexis, and the roaming Manager DJ for the warm welcome. Everything was perfect.“

“The beer and food here were both awesome. I highly recommend Voodoo Love Child (Fruited Tripel) and 37 Pieces of Flair (Rye IPA). The pickle pizza and Tikka masala chicken sandwich were both delicious. The owner and staff were also super friendly and entertained my oldest daughter with a scavenger hunt (she was so proud of the pin she won) lol. We've talked about visiting Cinci more and will definitely be back. This was the perfect spot for lunch and brews with the family!“

“loved the idea, could do better with bourbon choices and have a price list.... a lot of places over charge on pours and I don't want to have to ask the price of 15 different bourbons“

“Your food is delicious and staff has always been outstanding. Being treated like family or friends along with the yummy food, is worth the cost. Thank you!“

“Great espresso, coffee, and other beverages. Always happy to support local.“

“We’ve been to Fireside before and the pizzas and salads are great as always. But we tried the canolas for desert this time. Don’t wait as long as we did to try them, they were exceptional.“

“Visited Rosie’s Italian Kitchen. Cannot believe it took us so long to check it out. Our server Austin gave very good suggestions and everything was outstanding ! We had the Arancini and Fried Lasagna bites to start and then the Honey Pie! Perfect blend of sweet heat . We also split the Cannoli Cookie with a scoop of vanilla gelato . Forgot to get a photo as we dug right in. We also met the Manager Alex and Kitchen Manager Victor who were so welcoming and made us feel like family . Already planning when we can go back !“

“Emillie was a great server! Let's start with the great things. We did apps and sides. Dumplings were so good but broth was phenomenal !!! Burrata and tomato jam was basically an amazing caprese, sooo good. We also had truffle mushrooms which we added to dumpling broth, YUM! and also had the perfect broccoli with just an ok aioli. Was unimpressed with crab avocado toast, not worth the expense. Have had a a lot of crab food options s and this underwhelmed. My husband is a brownie sundae officianato and he seriously loved the s'more brownie dessert. Overall, great food and sat outside away from a noisy interior on a Friday night.“

“We absolutely loved our experience at Safi start to finish. The atmosphere is marvelous, very unique and inviting. The food was delicious, unique, and very well presented. The large variety of drinks suited everyone in our party; I was particularly impressed at the unique wine options including dessert wines. The service was absolutely excellent and I enjoyed conversations with several helpful staff. I can't wait to go again!!“

“Celebrating our 15th anniversary at The Blind Lemon. Few of our date nights there! My partner Joel
Mellon has been there in 1984! When we met in 2003 we came here often! Our favorite drink is the Grand Mariner warm! The solo guitarist voice was amazing! The magical part of the night was as we were about to leave she sang our song! Norah Jones ‘ come Away With Me’
It was perfect! The night ended well!’
?❤️?“

“Recommended visiting when there isn’t a bengals game going on. Cute seasonal menus for their coffees and drinks. Very simple and small but with a lot character. I think this should be a regular spot for anyone who enjoys a nice tucked away spot to sit and sip.“

“Love going to the Alcove!! Love the jerk chicken sliders!“

“The food was delicious. Had my husband hollering, lol scared the ppl at first then the other customers joined in. Service was amazing“
