I absolutely love this place. I had a chance to speak with the founder of this gem...such a nice cat. His genuine love of enjoying life through the context of food and drinks shine here. Great job!

I like the dark vibe inside. There is outdoor seating as well which is nice for summer. Great service. We sat at the bar and the bartender was attentive and checked in on us. The espresso martini is so good its dangerous. I could definitely drink a few (which no one should do). Their whiskey sour (egg white of course) was also fantastic

This was a fun bar to go to for drinks in the evening. they also have a club in the basement for live bands. We enjoyed the ambience and it was very lively on a Friday night.

Stepped into The Midnight and was immediately captivated. This open-air goth bar manages to strike that perfect balance of elegance and dark allure. The decor is stunning, with a sophisticated twist that sets it apart.
What truly impressed me was the thoughtful curation of their wine selection – clearly, they cater to discerning tastes. And the DJ? Absolutely brilliant. They spun a vibe that had you nodding your head and tapping your feet, completely immersing you in the atmosphere without ever overpowering conversation. It was the ideal backdrop for a night out.
But the real magic unfolded downstairs. The basement at The Midnight is an intimate haven for live music. It's the kind of space where you can truly connect with the bands and rock out to your heart's content. Whether you're there for the refined drinks and sophisticated ambiance upstairs or the raw energy of the live music below, The Midnight offers a uniquely compelling experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for something beyond the ordinary.

Not going to lie, I wanted to like this place SO BADLY because of the cute vibe and location so I came several times to keep giving it chances. My biggest gripe is that I found that the cocktails to be extremely lacking. They had multiple tiki drinks on the menu and each I tried was worse than the last-- just really bitter, unbalanced, and poorly executed in general. I AM picky about tiki and know those drinks are hard to make well but there a few casual non-tiki bars on Belmont that can pull them off, so it is possible.
The service is good, staff is friendly, and the vibe is good but not great. The events seem to be lacking, poorly advertised and communicated. I went to a couple that were just dead or cancelled without notice. Further, unless every other bar on Belmont is packed, it's usually pretty quiet and empty. If you want to come here, bring a couple friends to fill the air and stick to shots or beers.
Low light, good drinks and friendly, fast service– what else could you ask for? Such a cool almost goth, but classy spot in Belmont neighborhood. Great for a date night of group of friends!
This neighborhood bar is a dimly lit, unassuming gem that has some of the most exquisitely crafted cocktails in the entire city. The bartenders are professional and have honed their craft to a supreme level. Check out the nightly events they have in their downstairs venue, The Six. Great date spot and super fun neighborhood hang.
