29 Best Cocktail Bars in Columbia

“The food, service, and atmosphere was off the chain!!! Great place to eat and hangout!!!“

“The food and drinks are amazing and such a cool atmosphere.“

“The appetizers, entrees and cocktails were fantastic. I had the Island Hummus for the appetizer, dry-rub spare ribs for the dinner, and the Heart of Darkness drink to start things off. Dominique H was one of the best waitresses during my short time in Columbia. I would absolutely come here again on my next.“

“Ilona was an amazing server! We loved her energy and humor.
She walked us through the menu and I changed my order decision based on her explanation of the menu. Ended up getting the eggs benny trifecta and it was delicious. Really liked the pork on the Benedict, really flavorful. Eggs were the perfect done-ness.
They don’t joke when they say things are sweet, so be prepared for that. But I got the savory dish, so it wasn’t and issue for me.“

“the owner is awesome and does so much to help a lot of people in the community and her story is just so much and so many times Untold about that. truly a great place to go with a feel like home atmosphere. I enjoy it there myself because it is home for me as I'm sure it is for a lot of other people.“

“I love this venue for any occasion. It's spacious and elegant for a small or medium size event. I love the fact that the kitchen and counter space are separated by a wall and two double swinging doors to hide the workings of the kitchen.“

“If your are looking for a nice laid back spot that is different from the norm yes this is it. Yet the food is amazing, best philly and wings I can think of. I’m a country boy and they even have hotdogs one they the best in town.“

“The view was great, and I really enjoyed the glass windows since it was SO COLD outside. It was a great spot to watch ? fireworks and have some drinks, but the service was extremely slow. I've never waited so long for a drink in my entire life. The second bartender came in and poured our whiskey we asked for over 20 minutes before. I'm in the hospitality business so...I'm very understanding, but wow. There were maybe 10 people in there when we got there on New years Eve. Wasn't busy. Mind you, it was still very early. They lose out on ALOT of money and tips by being so slow and inattentive. It could be a gem. When I told the 3 people at the front desk, they needed help upstairs. (we had one drink and went somewhere else to spend New years due to slow service, and the crowd was getting bigger... yikes. ) they said yeah people like coming here since its one of the only places open (wrong).... it was empty downstairs. If you think this is busy...go to naples florida. Lol, get some better bartender that enjoys getting big tips. The man behind the bar was great. He helped us... and everyone else tremendously. Without him, you would have made no money that night.. I hope he got holiday pay. Other than that it was a great stay. Best Regards“

“Server was very friendly and awesome.“

“It was a nice restaurant! Drinks were good and ambiance was nice and mood setting. I’m not a heavy seafood person so I found the menu compact but eclectic. It’s all about preferences. NY Strip was the only cut of steak they had and it was decent (also not my fav) but the au poivre was really good. The salad with the fruit was really good as well! Give it a try for yourself.“

“greeted as soon as we walked in. service was fantastic. I had the catfish stew and it was Amazing! definitely worth finding!“

“The ambience is peaceful and beautiful. The service is pretty slow even though it’s not as busy but it didn’t bother me . Give you time to order a drink, appetizer and talk and then order your entree. I’ve been twice Brianna and Maddie served me. They both we attentive and gave good options. Spicy Pho was my favorite. The spicy wontons are good as well. The prices are affordable.“

Very friendly and not too much. Allowed us space to talk and enjoy dinner as well. He made our night. Food was amazing and fresh. Tried this different style of noodles and was pleasantly surprised.“
