Overall it’s a good cocktail bar, definitely far from the top tier bars but the cocktails were pretty good - a borderline 5 star experience all in all. The waiting time on a Friday night was reasonable - around 15 mins. The atmosphere and interior were not as breathtaking in my opinion. It felt like it was designed 20 years ago. The staff were reasonably friendly and welcoming. The ID is a must to enter.
Fruits of My Labour cocktail was good - even though it reads light...

We were in Boston for a few days and wanted to go to a speakeasy bar. We asked bartender just to make us a drink and told them ingredients and flavor we like and O.M.G it was spot on! So so good! If you are looking for different cocktails go here, you wont be disappointed! Atmosphere is fun.

Incredible place. There was a bit of a line as the place is limited in seating space but it was worth the wait. We had a blast, specially trusting the bartenders with making us drinks based on flavors we like. Every drink was 100% creativity and offmenu and delicious everything. Will come back every time Im in Boston.
