Drinks were nothing but ice. Tried the Ursula and hey love and they tasted great! I wish the drinks were freshly made but I watched the staff poor them out pre-made from the taps on the wall.

Went after eating across the street to have a quick drink. The smell as soon as we walked un was terrible. Smelled like something was rotting. We asked our waiter for drink recommendations and one of the drinks he described as a Pina colada infused with cinnamon toast crunch was horrible. As someone who loves both Pina coladas and cinnamon toast crunch, this was not even close to what he described. We told him the drink didn't taste good and asked for another drink. He seemed upset but brought us the other drink and proceeded to tell us he couldn't take the first drink off the tab because he "explained it to us". We never asked for the drink to he taken off and if the drink had tasted the way he described it, we would have been very happy with it. We didnt need the attitude as we hadnt even asked for the drink to be taken off the tab. Definitely won't be back.

We had an amazing time at Happy Accidents. The vibe is immaculate, beautiful interior, the drinks are iconic and fun. Also very affordable ! We came from MN and the innovative drinks are like double the price and doesn’t taste that good. Staff was super personal and welcoming. Definitely will be coming back.

What a wonderful happy accident that we stumbled upon this hidden gem. Walked in on the way to somewhere else after flying in to find a welcoming atmosphere and very personable staff.Tami was our main waitperson and was terrific with drink recommendations and banter. The decor is unique and fun. 10/10 would recommend

Vegetarian options: yummy ? Patatas Bravas,Cauliflower and the Winter salad.
I honestly was a huge fan and advocate of this spot, but recently brought a friend in from out of town on a Sunday evening and it was a really disappointing experience. Food was burnt to a crisp, drinks took a long time even though it was slow, and the bathrooms were super dirty.

One of the BEST cocktail bars I have ever been to! The staff are talented and the menu is scrumptious! If you love craft cocktails, this is the place to go!! Also, staff was humble and gracious. These one star reviews are bogus. Go here, you will NOT regret it. Excellent service and delicious drinks and food!!

Happy Accidents is a masterpiece of a cocktail bar, where the art isn’t just on the walls but in every glass. The place where take my out-of-town guests. The place that is a canvas of funky wall art, creating a vibrant backdrop for an evening out. The real star, though, is the wall of cocktail taps, a spectacle of boozy brilliance offering a palette of flavors from sweet to savory. Amidst this creative buzz, it can get busy, but like waiting for paint to dry on a beautiful artwork, it’s absolutely worth it. A visit here is not just a drink, it’s an experience - a fusion of art, flavor, and fun, all stirred together in a cool, eclectic atmosphere.

The drinks are very good. Unfortunately, your $15+ drink is going to be 90% ice. The aesthetic is cool, very artsy, but the music is so loud. Makes me wonder why they serve food if they’re going to act like you’re at the club. The food is not the best. I went over the holidays and ordered the pozole, whoever made that doesn’t believe in seasoning food. I had to ask for salt and they had to go get that from a salt mine in Western New Mexico, explaining why the pozole had no flavor. It was served with store bought chips. I ordered their holiday coquito that came in a very cute mug… it was mostly ice! As stated, the drinks are good but it would be awesome if I didn’t pay $15 for ice. The service is alright but so many people come up trying to get you drinks and food that it’s not clear ever who your server actually is. So multiple people come up but then when you need something and you ask a random employee for something they say they’ll get your sever and that can literally be anyone.
