Drinks were great, and they had a $7 cocktail special which was awesome. Got the ricotta and honey appetizer which was delicious. Should come with more bread. Had to order a second helping of bread and that still wasn't enough. Was hard to get the check and we were the only ones in the establishment. Had to go up to the bar and ask for it

Flatbread & sangria were great happy hour choices with much more on the menu. Ashley was helpful and attentive while also working the bar. The place is cute & clean with subtle lighting & fun decor. Nice wine display.

Parking: Plenty of spots close by. Also, public transportation option.

Wow! Gorgeous, welcoming space with a touch of Northside architecture in tiny patches of exposed wall. IngeniousKendra, the bartender is personable, attentive & according to the guys next to me makes the best cocktail everKind of weird to comment on the restrooms but they are seriously nice & the hand soap smells amazing ❤️

Vegetarian options: I had the beer cheese & pretzel yumminess … but they have salads & plenty of choices

Parking: Free street parking after meters turn off. Plenty of paid parking lots & street parking. It’s a popular area on the weekends

My friend and I magically stumbled upon this bar and I feel robbed that we just found it! It is beautiful on the inside with quality drinks and food. Highly recommended it. The bathrooms are also amazing, you have to go to know what I mean.

Wine n small buts

Great little spot! The theming was unique, it was very clean, and the cocktails were good. It’s not advertised, but they will make the cocktails into mocktails on request. Not too loud, so a fun place to hang out with friends and chat. There was a drink special when I went and it was pretty cool to get good drinks for so cheap! Good small bites with lots of cheese options!

Fantastic wine options, great bourbon selection, and yummy light bites, not to mention an unexpectedly good taco Tuesday! One of my favorite places in the neighborhood.

Came for taco Tuesday, which is always hit or miss at a bar. This was a clear miss. I can excuse the flour tortillas as this is an American restaurant, but the grated cheddar on the tacos had gone bad. There is no excuse for this and leaves everything else on the menu suspect. Additionally, there was a bad smell in the place, like it hadn't been cleaned in a while. Poor staff management had left only one employee on the floor for the night. This place may have been good when it first opened, but it's clearly been neglected. The star is for the one staff person abandoned by her coworkers. Northside deserves better.

Full disclosure; my wife and I are not regulars but we think of The Hamilton as our "go to" bar on our Birthdays, Anniversary, etc. I should have made this point on the night we were there (July 11, 2023) or shortly thereafter but life gets in the way. I ordered the "Kentucky" drink special but asked for bourbon instead of rye. Every other time I have done so (10+) there was no problem and they charged me the specified price. This time I had my usual 2 drinks but noticed when I got home that I was "upcharged" for the bourbon. (Why a "Kentucky" special would have rye is a question for another day.) I do not blame the bartender because when I made m request for the substation I saw her check with a woman whom I assume is the manager and/or owner. Not the worst thing that has ever happened to me at a restaurant/bar but I don't want to just not go there anymore without telling you my reason.
