Delightful cocktails that are relatively inexpensive. James Lyons was the bartender and his Spotify music set list created a cool relaxing vibe that mixed well with good drinks

I had high expectations for a night out at Arcadium Bar, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a disappointing experience. The atmosphere seemed promising at first, but the service really fell flat.
What truly ruined our evening was the treatment we received from the bartender, Joe. My date and I, both people of color, felt discriminated against during our time there. Joe was noticeably dismissive and unfriendly, and it was hard to shake the feeling that our presence was not welcomed. We watched as other patrons received attentive service, while we were left waiting far longer than necessary. Eventually he asked us to leave because according to Joe "it's his right" to deny service to us without any logical reason.
It’s disheartening to see such behavior in a place that should be about inclusivity and good vibes. I won’t be returning to Arcadium Bar, and I hope they take a serious look at how their staff treats all customers. No one should have to experience discrimination while simply trying to enjoy a night out.

Matt, the bartender, was so much fun and inviting. I’d never been to the bar before and was new to the area. I asked him what he liked and most bartenders hate this but I genuinely wanted to try something new and he was very nice about it. He made me an awesome drink and it was delicious. He then made me a second drink that wasn’t on the menu. Will definitely be going back, if nothing else, for Matt’s outstanding service.

Absolutely one of the best bars in the Lexington area. Usually, it is not too crowded, yet the bartenders are always friendly and make you feel at home. The first time I came in, they were playing Bram Stoker's Dracula, and I knew that this place was it! Great atmosphere, great prices on drinks, plus the games are just an added bonus. I love that they serve food as well, just be aware that the food hours of operation are different than the bar and close earlier. All in all, it is a great place to unwhine without breaking the bank!
Chill atmosphere, dimly lit, not loud or crowded.
