Came here on a Saturday night because I’ve heard nothing but great things about the cocktail program. We walked in and sat at the bar which was cozy and had a tv to watch college basketball. The cocktails were fantastic and the atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for. We will definitely be back when the new cocktail menu drops!

Really can’t say enough good things about each of the establishments here. Belfry is a chill gastropub/cocktail bar/whiskey/bar you name it with phenomenal food. I haven’t had a bad thing. Ground Control is literally out of this world. Super fun concepts that rotate monthly with food as good as anything that you’ll find in the city (or an another city for that matter). Major Tom would be proud.

We tried a few of the cocktails, made by Justin, and all were amazing! We also tried the homemade chips, burrata with grilled peaches and the vegan paella and everything was so delicious! Highly recommend this place! Great spot to try before a show, short walk to Kaufman.Laid back, fun atmosphere!

A little more on the pricey side of things but well worth it. Food was absolutely delicious. And really had an amazing experience. Well I could be out of the loop on price we rarely eat out.

This is a review of Ground Control, the basement bar.

So, I walked in and promptly walked out, because in a moment I realized what’s turning me off from this place. The sole bartender was greeting a new group of customers, like 4 older dudes who probably just wanted bourbon, who had never been there before. Bartender started to give the same old spiel about the menu, glazing them and all the drinks and spirits. He puts on this greatest showman thing for everyone new who walks in (he must be sick of it by now) and that totally just drives me away, because I know he’s going to focus all of his attention on the new customers. Maybe that’s what makes it a “tasting room” and not an awesome bar. But it’s giving strong “you’re not spending enough for me to care” vibes. They like to close early, too, if there aren’t enough customers. Cocktails border on great but not sure if it’s worth it. Unfortunately, the atmosphere ultimately isn’t enough to make you sit there and even enjoy being ignored.

Super loved the aesthetic and vibe. The place has more pool tables than you’d expect and they’re all super retro, well maintained and fun to play on. The food is wicked good. I always get the burger and my old lady loves the fried chicken and biscuits. The Belfry will likely become a part of our rotation.

The Belfry Collective is a standout destination that brings together great vibes, quality experiences, and a strong sense of community under one roof. Each space within the collective has its own distinct personality, making it a perfect spot for both casual hangouts and memorable evenings.

The Belfry sets the tone with its stylish ambiance, thoughtful design, and welcoming atmosphere. It’s a place where conversations flow easily and every visit feels well-curated.

Gerard’s Pool Hall adds a nostalgic yet modern charm. With well-maintained tables and a lively crowd, it’s ideal for both serious players and those just looking to unwind with friends over a game.

Ground Control delivers high energy and a contemporary vibe, making it a go-to spot for music, social gatherings, and late-night fun. The atmosphere is dynamic and keeps you coming back for more.

Wolf Den, as part of the Belfry Collective, offers a more intimate and edgy experience. It’s bold, immersive, and perfect for those who enjoy a slightly underground, exclusive feel.

Overall, the Belfry Collective successfully blends entertainment, culture, and community. Whether you’re there to play, relax, socialize, or explore different moods in one place, it’s an experience worth revisiting.

⭐ Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique and vibrant social space.

Hidden, sneaky food and cocktail gem … @thebelfrylounge

I’m not sure why we have not been, we walk by it all the time but finally went and it was great.

The theme for me is randomly perfect.

The drink menu is huge and has a variety of options. They don’t seem to go together but again randomly perfect. We all got something we wanted and they were all good.
The night we went a lot were Taylor Swift inspired so the names will be different.

Food ranges from sushi grade tuna to curry style poutine fries. And why not!!!
We got tacos, pasta, and a beirock all in one place and all really good.

I got the beirock. It was excellent. The cabbage was cooked down just enough that it was like a sauce for the ground beef and the dough was yeasty and at the correct ratio to the filling.

Portions are right in the smaller range, along with the prices. So if you need two things the amount of food and price will be good.

This is going to be come a staple in our rotation of places to eat and drink because we can all get what we want in the same place.

Unique space, great service, nice selection of beer, cocktail, wine, and whiskey, and three separate areas to hang out in. There’s the main bar/dining area, a billiards section and a basement bar. The service was amazing, multiple people checking in regularly, the server was very knowledgeable about the menu and the daily specials. Will definitely be going back soon!

Bartender was waiting tables and was alone and had an attitude until a more pleasant person came in and finished his service. The chicken wings were great. The pretzel was fine. Kimchi tacos were good. The spring vegetable pasta was so flavorless and bland. Basically cooked pasta and shrimp with fresh vegetables without any apparent white wine or garlic. It’s like they forgot to saute with the sauce. It also had no salt and there was none on the table. My lavender haze cocktail was delicious. Next time, I’d probably just get an app and a drink. Cool space and art though.
