Aaron BouvierJanuary 14, 2016Pros: good cocktails, interesting space and history. Cons: touristy and expensive.
Nita DrakatosMay 1, 2013Be careful. There is a little bump on the too step. It's under the carpet. If your going up the stairs too fast you might trip.
Brendan LewisAugust 7, 2014Hidden just faraway enough that you don't have to deal with too many pesky tourists!
K CSeptember 14, 2017How do you charge $25 for a drink and then serve stale pretzel goldfish? It's sad that you pushed out a great business & are trying to get away with doing the bare minimum in such a classic location.
The hours on the plaque by the door are incorrect. If the door is open, the bar is open.
Amy CummingsApril 3, 2019A bit of a pretentious yuppie midtown crowd, but a good place to grab a drink after getting off the train.
joan leeMarch 21, 2013If you wear jeans make sure to be super pleasant, they may just let you in. :)
@MisterHirschJanuary 18, 2011Swank cocktail place... Must try the Prohibition Punch. Also, don't forget to look up and check-out the ceiling. Beautiful spot.
Claire BarrettJune 9, 2012Always a pleasure to come here. Low lighting, comfy seating and good atmosphere.
Nick BurtoFebruary 23, 2012The Commodore is delicious but not that strong. The amazing interior makes up for it.
Boris PluskowskiOctober 8, 2014Cool atmosphere and a decent bar staff (albeit with a little attitude)
SimonApril 22, 2011Absolutely fantastic bar, atmosphere and drinks. Real 1920's feel. Can't wait to go back.
Lisa MayerJune 17, 2012Find the hidden Campbell Apartment through the entrance off Vanderbilt. Try the Prohibition Punch.
Greg BrunoSeptember 14, 2017This used to be the spot for the prohibition punch, and now it just feels like a punch in the face.
Lily CutairJuly 5, 2010Swanky bar with a great 40's era vibe! In the mood for wine... try the Riesling, it's light and refreshing.
The Jasmine Flower punch is basically a gimlet. Sorry to have missed the Centennial Punch!
Jesse SyswerdaFebruary 21, 2011The Kentucky Derby reigns supreme. I had it along with the two tables next to me and we all fell in love. Biejos.
melissa welirangJune 7, 2010The scene from Gossip Girl's infamous Shepard wedding where Serena & Nate do their deed in Season 1 was filmed here. Great place and great atmosphere.
Campbell Apartment 2.0... just as expensive ! Kept the ambiance the same though 🙌🏽🍸
Brittany MillsAugust 1, 2011Amazing! The Campbell Terrace is just as good - love the Watermelon Mojitos.
Ashley ParrishOctober 18, 2010Wait till after 7 when most of the commuters catch their trains then head here for an after work cocktail. The sidecars are delicious.
Ru LuFebruary 22, 2015Smaller than the pictures show. Has a second floor that fits about 4 small tables. The drinks were not so great.
Amelie BMarch 29, 2013Really beautiful setting (and ceiling). The prohibition punch is overrated in terms of taste, underrated in terms of strength.
Great drinks and atmosphere, sit out on the terrace in the summer.
Kimmie OhhAugust 3, 2020The drinks here are beautiful & come with a vintage twist. This feels like a speakeasy because it isn’t really easy to find. Wish they still had their signature Prohibition Punch on the menu.
Chris CervantezApril 9, 2013Best Lemon Drop martini ever! AND this is where I got married last September!
