Tonic, Bar and Social Club of Wake Forest

Met there for a social. Good atmosphere for conversation.

Been coming since I turned 21, my parents had been coming since open there’s always a friendly face to greet you whether it’s the bartender or a regular. Not a lot of bars make you feel wanted there, this one makes sure you feel wanted

Great bar but it attracts some odd characters

We have been looking at the possibility of moving to the Wake Forest area and decided to pop into this local Bar and Social Club downtown. What an amazing place. With a very relaxed vibe, great service, and a true local feel – the drinks were the real treat. The carefully curated cocktail menu provides some exciting classics with a very sophisticated mix of ingredients to elevate each cocktail to a new level beyond my expectations. With live music every week – I can’t wait to move to the area and become a regular at this local spot!

I always enjoy the great experience at tonic. Alana made this artwork of a drink. So good, live music, so fun.

Cool little bar in downtown. Nice place to kickback for a drink.

Alana's a great bartender who is professional, friendly, and your drink doesn’t sit empty too long before she is checking on what you need. She always remembers mine and my wife’s drink and we are greeted with a smile.
The live music is bonus. The atmosphere and vibe are low key and laid back. There are never any issues at the bar that would cause concern. Well run establishment ??

Lana is the best bartender. Everyone who wants to Unwind and grab a drink should visit Lana at Tonic for great conversation, good vibes, and fantastic drinks!

This bar lacks hospitality, making patrons feel unwelcome. I'll be exploring other options for my nights out.

Stopped by Tonic Bar and Social Club in downtown Wake Forest recently and absolutely loved the vibe! It's a quaint spot that feels just right for unwinding with an evening drink during the week. They've got a decent beer selection that's sure to hit the spot whether you're a casual drinker or a bit of a connoisseur. Definitely a gem in the area for those looking to escape the usual hustle and bustle. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to chill out in a cozy setting with a good in hand.

On a business trip, decided to check place out as it was close to my hotel, sat down, not a single person came up for about 20 minutes, left.

What a fun place! I took my husband for surprise date night. We got there a little early when the musicians set began and had a front row couch to ourselves. The drinks were fabulous. I can’t remember the name but there was a gin and jam one that was scrumptious!

Really cool place and vibe plus some really good music too.
