Great outdoor patio and the drinks are fantastic

A perfect hand crafted cocktail for only $12?!?! Yes. The same cocktail you'd pay $25 for in Chicago or NYC. Thanks for the kind hospitality!

I went the Van Buren Room while visiting Dayton and quickly began to wonder what took me so long to stop in. The lovely space might've been enough to impress me, but it quickly became tertiary to the friendly service and expert cocktails. I ended up taking with me a bottle of their own Belle of Dayton gin, and as I drink it now at home, I dare not risk masking its glorious flavor by putting it in anything more complicated than a G&T. Do they make vermouth as fine as the Van Buren Room gin so I can mix a martini? Can't wait until I'm back in Dayton.

Cool chill cocktail bar. Interesting and novel selection of drinks on the menu. Had an old fashioned. Was great because it was made as a sipper. I didn’t have the urge to chug it like I usually do. Seemed to have a good crowd of regulars. Servers kept my water full.

Great drinks, mediocre service. I've had two bad experiences here, first I went and looked through the menu and couldn't find what I wanted so I asked the bartender for a suggestion, the guy scoffs at me and tells me "that's not my job" and throws a menu at me. I honestly thought that was the EXACT job of a bartender, to know your menu and offer service. The other I won't even say because it enrages me to no end. Suffice to say, great drinks, need better service training.

Fun, cool vibe - and each cocktail we tried was very good.

A true hidden gem. Everyone was friendly and very knowledgeable. So far, my favorite drink is the butter pecan old fashion. Also, check out the distillery tours on Thursday.

Best cocktails around!!

Easily one of the classiest places in Dayton for a thoughtfully crafted cocktail!

Trevor Morris

One of my favorite evening cocktail spots. Every drink is made with such precision they never leave my pallet wanting. The outdoor seating is also a bonus on nice evenings.

One of our favorites in Dayton!!! We moved to Florida last year and this is one of our first stops when coming back to town. If you want an excellent cocktail this is the place.

Ian is a master of mixology. Please ask for him. This place is warm and inviting. Even the cocktail menu is gorgeous (if your vegan, you won't be amused). Leather embossed and very creative. With a litany of fresh ingredients, lore of the establishment, and the warm kindness of the professional staff, you can't go wrong. *Just don't ask for Chopin vodka*
