Kingfisher offers stellar drinks in a killer atmosphere, transporting guests to a funky NYC bar. The speakeasy vibe and spacious bar are highlights, perfect for date nights or jazz nights on Tuesdays at 9:00 pm. The friendly staff, including Robert, is known for their excellent service and helps in selecting from a variety of fun drinks, like the Morning Glory, the best cocktail in Durham, and the vodka pear gimlet, which received high praise. Reviewers say the amazing bartender took such good care of guests and gave great insight on the cocktails, truly making their night. The staff are individually fantastic but collectively brilliant, making it feel more like home than a bar. With cool seating areas, including a back room with a circular couch, it's ideal for groups or hanging out with friends. Guests can enjoy drinks while relaxing at the bar, tables, or comfortable cubby tables. The atmosphere is intimate and cozy, with upbeat music that allows for conversation, though live music can be a little too loud. Kingfisher is considered a top-notch bar, setting a standard for others in the city, and even offers delightful treats like chai banana pudding ice cream. Though some diners suggest having more small plates, the overall experience is enjoyable and memorable, making it a place many look forward to returning to.
