Delicious snacks, a Vesper, and a Boilermaker = perfect rainy Thursday evening. Excellent 90s music and cool nostalgic atmosphere.

Super overcrowded. 1 hour wait for a tiny cocktail table or bar stool. [EDIT] *NO* signage about any "anniversary" crowding!Nobody APOLOGIZED for the crowding, nor offered any incentive for waiting. When we tried to do "standing room" we were told "YOU CAN NOT STAND HERE"...*NOBODY* seemed to care about 2 people who had NEVER been there ... It felt like being SHUNNED for not knowing the "secret password" or something!

Frequent here often as it’s right around the corner from where we live. The craftsmanship behind every cocktail is wonderful. Would recommend an aviation or one of their seasonal cocktails on tap! Very friendly staff and always a good time.

Best local neighborhood bar ever!❤️❤️❤️ went during Tiki week, absolutely loved the selections. Not sure I’ve had a pina colada this good. It’s like the Pina in the window is their call sign for this drink. One of the best ways ever to spend my birthday night! Thanks RR! And if you go, check out the spine of your menu for a little inspiration or a conversation topic.

Enjoyed their tasty, fun, and fancy cocktails. The bartenders are knowledgeable and create delicious drinks. Cool ambiance. I plan to become a regular.

Robin Room is an enjoyable cocktail bar with a young professinal, hip energy. Busy nights are normal and the two guys running the counter weren't backing down from the bars constant influx of new patrons. It's a dark room with intimate lighting. A lot of conversations kept it noisy over the chill music vibes coming out the speakers. Robin Room isn't perfect. It can quickly become a tight squeeze if you find yourself without a seat. It's not particularly fun avoiding every boy & girl urgently rushing to use the rest room. That said, we finally sat down and settled in. My Mexican inspired hot chocolate imperial stout was a great offering. I'll be back if I see seating available.

Tonight, I had gotten off of a late night at work and desperately needed a quick bite and something to drink. The bartenders immediately satisfied my needs with an excellent ham sandwich and a glass of wine.The ham sandwich was finished much before my glass of wine was, and despite its simplicity, constitute of succulent meat and elegant mustard, with a pillowy bun to boot. In essence, it was as if I was enjoying a sandwich the day after the Christmas ham was carved.The glass of wine was agreeable and exceeded the expectations of a cocktail bar, which was immediately followed by a conversation with the bartender to result in the perfect drink for me this particular evening; something simple, yet particular; a glass of Benedictine over ice, with a splash of water. I had asked for Drambuie, but the barstaff had made the right call with the extensive collection they had.All in all, my experience this evening was outstanding, and fulfilled my every wish for an after work outing.The Robin Room employs some of the best bartenders in the city, truly willing to help you satisfy your needs. The only thing I would posit to anyone looking to visit: know your needs before you come in, so they may help you with their remarkable talents of drinkcrafting and conversation.
