Jessica ChoateNovember 27, 2013Amazing cocktails with amazing ladies #ichabodcrane #papaspilar #rumcocktaiks #tasty
Jenny L.May 21, 2015Trendy. Good cocktail and punch selections. Cheap oysters for happy hour. Waitresses were a little rude...they acted like doing their job is too much for them.
Monique LlamasMarch 28, 2016Is the bar crowded? Skip the wait, see if the second bar in back is open.
Alyssa AmosJuly 6, 2013Decor was awesome and cocktails were unique. Unfortunately it took 30 minutes to get a drink with a table reservation...
Josh MateoApril 11, 2015The crowd was ... Diverse. Pretty mellow on a weekday, probably a scene on the weekend.
Get the draft punch. Scotch punch is spicy and strong.
Raj ShahJuly 25, 2013The Helen Keller is an amazing drink for people who are sober or for designated drivers.
Cocktails with character. Great place to come for drinks!
Stupidly busy during the week, but the cocktails are good. Sunday evenings are pretty empty.
Dara WilsonDecember 11, 2013Watch your drinks and you food. They sweep up unattended items (even if they're right next to you) in an instant. Lost a full drink and all my food tonight :(
Nick CiceroOctober 9, 2013Sometimes you'll find new authors leaving their books in the shelves here.
- Vy NguyenJanuary 18, 2016Cool interior, but the worst Manhattan I have ever had. It was sweet and pink! Stick with their punch.
Garret S.July 7, 2013Drinks are OK, Maven is way better, go to the original. The crowd could be a lot more "mixed" but at least I could see over everyone to order my drink...
