We went there on the evening before Thanksgiving, ordered 2 drinks and paid and ordered 2 more drinks and paid. We are very shocked to look at our bank statement today and was charged $117 and $116. I think we got robbed when the drinks we ordered cost less than $20 each. If you come here, please double check your bill.

I visited last night with friends and was served by Shannon who was amazing. She gave great suggestions and service. I ordered the Spicy little Devil (which had the perfect amount of ginger spice I like), Bees Knee (highly recommend, and recommended by Shannon), and 2 of their Irish Whiskey selections. My friends had the Martini, Old Fashioned and Sunset Park. All they raved about. The sunset Park was definitely spirit forward so id definitely suggest it as a sipper but quite tasty. On the other end in the lower level there's a pizza place I didn't catch the guys name but he ended up getting us a Pepperoni pizza even super close to closing and was SO nice about it. I felt bad but he was so gracious and sweet. I would definitely love to visit again. Overall very impressed and appreciative of the staff hospitality and menu.

I have tried to get into this place numerous times and usually have no luck because it is usually so packed inside. My wife and I were finally able to get in and find a seat and it was definitely a great vibe. If you have never been here before, you have to go through a legit pizza place and then go up the stairs in order to get into this bar. It felt like a true speakeasy vibe as there was low lighting, nice comfortable seating, great music and just a mature and grown type vibe here. The music was great as it was mostly chill and relaxing r&b. The service was absolutely great. There were multiple bartenders which I am always a fan of, and the bartenders would even come to you to take your drink order and bring your drinks. This was something I definitely was not used to. This place was excellent and was such a vibe.

My only two complaints are that there is very limited seating and space here so it doesn’t take much for this place to get full. This explains why I am usually never able to find a seat here. The second thing I would say is that most of the drinks are whiskey or bourbon based. Now Im sure you can order and request any type of drink as there is a full bar. But in terms of their actual drink menu, it is mostly whiskey and bourbon based.

If you are able to get in and find a seat, this is a great chill bar to go to.

For a craft bar the bartenders are shockingly unknowledgable and unfriendly. Horrible experience and not worth your time.

Chicken tenders, jalapeño poppers, and mozzarella sticks. What more could a girl want? A Lambrusco spritz? Yes please. This place is tucked away. It gets kind of dark during the day because they cover the windows but still a good time to forget what time of day it is.

Had the most amazing daiquiri of my life. A cool atmosphere. The bartenders were slammed but still took the time to be super friendly!

Great hidden gem of a speakeasy. Excellent cocktails, mocktails, and the atmosphere is a vibe. Great place for a date night with your SO or friends.

Fun fact: there’s a great pizza place on the first floor before you go up. Highly recommend you grab a slice on the way out.

It’s a win-win for sure! 🍸🍕

Fantastic speakeasy atmosphere. If you’re lucky, Shannon will be on shift to make one of her signature cocktails. Highly recommend for anyone looking for the cocktail of a lifetime.

Fourth time here, and the bartenders are always responsive and up for a challenge. This time, Shannon took us on a mezcal, whiskey, and absinthe infused journey. Try it out!
