About The Ranstead Room

The Ranstead Room offers a cozy atmosphere with an enchanting ambiance and exquisite drinks. It has a speakeasy feel with good decor, making it a great place for chatting with friends or enjoying a date night. The small space features about 15 tables plus bar seating and does not take reservations, so arriving early increases the chances of getting a table. Recent visitors noted that arriving late could mean waiting over two hours. The staff are friendly and accommodating, even on busy nights. The bartender's energy, especially from Nico, helps create a lively and inviting vibe. While the loud music can sometimes be a bit odd—such as Latin-ish vibes—it doesn't take away from the overall experience. The drinks are a highlight, with standout choices like the Old Fashion #2 and Margarita #2. The space is also suitable for enjoying interesting drinks chosen by the bartender's recommendation. Many find this spot their go-to for excellent drinks and a great time, and while the snacking food looked solid, the drinks remain the main attraction. El Rey, located next door, is a good option while waiting.
