This business turned us down at the door. I'm not positive why. We were wearing Orioles gear because the team was playing Pittsburgh and we were in town to enjoy it. I'm not sure if this business is anti Orioles, anti baseball, or just anti business. I'm thinking the latter given the state of this sorry attempt at a bar.

We barely walked in the door and were told that we weren't able to be served. Literally walked in the door and were turned away. We were looking at spending 100-150$ if not more between the 4 of us. Do not recommend

It's a cool enough spot that I'd go so far as to arrange a very special, personal event there. Just thinking out loud...

Leo is a hidden gem on the north side with a well-curated draft list, great bar snacks (oh, my! those pickled quail eggs), a massive collection of vinyl, and infused liquors you can have made into just about any cocktail (or better yet, let the tender decide). What more could you possibly need?

What a great little vibe and absolute gem. The drinks are creatively infused and the ability to customize your cocktail based on a flavor profile of your choosing is a bespoke touch not offered by many places. This place is a definite option that should be explored. I will find myself here again when I return to visit home in the future.

This is the definition of a primo neighborhood bar / cocktail house. Jason the bartender eventually warmed up to us moronic Vermont visitors in town for the Steelers game. Sandwiches are top notch. Small and cozy spot.

Bartender stole money out of the change he was suppose to give back. When questioned about it he got mad and snatched the drink out of my hand and threw it over the back wall. Tried to get into a fight with some of my veteran buddies. Guy looked high on pcp.

Really good food and unique cocktails and infusions. The staff (and I think the owners) were so friendly and talented. The atmosphere was so unique and fun. Definitely a gem.

Amazing drinks. You pick one of their house-made infusions and they build a cocktail around that selection and a brief conversation with you. Did not try the food.

Great place. A friend recently took over the draft selection. I had a 12% selection. I think it was called "It's Your Funeral". Fun!

For real… can’t say enough good things about this place. The staff was great and it’s an intimate, really fun setting. I don’t want to say anything to too many people or else it will be crowded the next time I want to go lol. The hospitality that was shown to us while we were visiting for a game weekend was so appreciated.

I've heard so many good things about this place so a friend and I stopped by on a Friday afternoon. The venue is very unassuming and looks like it was a converted house so it can be easy to walk right by it if you're not looking for it. There's bar area seating inside along with seating in a couple of other rooms and a small patio out back. They don't have a set cocktail menu and instead the bartender asks you what flavor profiles and drinks you like and makes you a custom drink based off your answers with one of their house infused liquors. We tried the peaflower gin, the lemon thyme rye, and the mango and ginger tequila in three different cocktails and they were all lovely. Our bartender was personable and did a great job. I will note that he was the only person working so it might take a little bit to get your drinks. He did mention that he was the only person there so their kitchen wasn't open. I would definitely come back to try their food along with some other infused liquors!
