One of the best cocktail bars I’ve ever been to, hidden in a small town in the Adirondacks. Their classic cocktails are great, but their signature cocktails are so unique and amazing. I wish I could try them all and still be able to drive home. I would go out of my way for a drink at this bar. Recommend to anyone in a 3 hour radius.

As an aside, my wife and I really appreciated the pride flag. When we first moved to upstate New York, we didn’t really feel like we belonged. We were so grateful to find a spot like this to enjoy. Only wish we lived closer!

Roy, the owner and bartender for the night, is quick, fun, and charming. Great craft cocktails, warm atmosphere with some 90s bangers playing. The dogs roaming are adorable. We played Uno in the game room. It was a nice break from the heat and hustle and bustle of the street. Two enthusiastic thumbs up.

This place is such a gem. The overall aesthetic and drinks were divine. We were there probably mid afternoon on a Saturday and the club jams were banging, I wanted to stay for so much longer! Sad that this place is 3 hours away, but such a worthwhile stop.

Stopped in with a friend during some downtime, and was met with a wonderful atmosphere, a friendly owner, more than competent staff, and some great drinks. I walked out happy and drunk, to which you can't ask for much more these days. Great place.
