We happened to come across this place and decided to give it a try for the first time, and we’re so glad we did! The cocktails were absolutely delicious, the atmosphere was great, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Such a lovely spot—we’ll definitely be back! 🍸❤
Lovely speakeasy vibe. Warm and knowledgeable bartenders. A great spot.
A tremendous amount of thought and care goes into the cocktail menu—some are adventurous relative to your average margarita but that is part of the fun. It’s all delicious and meticulously prepared in any case.
