This place rocks! The bartenders make great cocktails and there are a lot of drink options on the menu. Love the cozy, sapphic vibes as well.

The name says it all. True dive bar with great service. Tony was a pleasure and gave great local recommendations. His Mowtown playlist made the visit. Don't miss it for an early Bloody Mary!

I came in this evening for a whiskey neat and the bottle is a tricky bottle to find (not very common). The bartender knew exactly what I was looking for and had it. He gave wonderful service and was very friendly. It’s nice to see such down on earth staff at this bar. Thank you Dimitri.

Go here. If you regret it you're a dummy. If you lose your phone they'll mail it back to you. If you don't lose your phone you'll be able to play absolute bangers on the juke box all night long. Cheers to Peaches & Fox and the guy who's name I can't remember.

Came in from Chicago with my lady, and we loved the vibe and ambiance of this place! Our bartender Tony showed us a great time and kept the drink coming, we’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in town.

A friend recommended Stella's so we stopped in Saturday afternoon after doing some Christmas shopping. We got a couple of open seats at the bar. The atmosphere is welcoming, we were greeted within a minute of walking in. Each of us had a couple of cocktails - Champagne Cocktail, French 75, Old Fashioned and Tom Collins - and they were perfectly prepared. Our bartenders were attentive and friendly. We 100% will be back.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Awesome local spot with unbeatable vibes!”

This place is everything you want in a good dive bar — laid-back atmosphere, great music, and a crowd that feels like family by the end of the night. The drinks are strong, the prices are fair, and the vibe is just right.

The real highlight, though, is the bartender Fox — super friendly, fast, and always remembers your drink. She instantly made our group welcomed and started to give the guys a hard time, all in good fun. She made sure everyone felt welcome and kept the energy fun without it ever feeling forced. Whether you’re stopping in for one or staying for a few, this bar just hits the spot every time.

Highly recommend checking it out if you want good drinks, good people, and a genuinely great time. 🍻
