This is my anniversary spot. We went in Jan 2025 and Jan 2026. Everyone on staff was so nice and accommodating. Even though we were told to order at the bar when we were ready, someone still came to ask our order as we made up our mind. The kitchen staff was so friendly too! This is my second time physically here and i’ve ordered on door dash a few times. Small menu, but good food and endless drink options. I like their plain wings cause it’s actually plain and not filled with salt. My boyfriend enjoyed the Shrimp Tacos and we had fries and beer.

Located right on Alexander St., this place has the atmosphere, drinks, and food that everyone is looking for. Recommend the shrimp tacos paired with a rum sour. Has outside patio area in the back and a second story deck for a little bit higher vantage point. Great date night spot. Friendly staff, great decorum for that intimate pub feel. Reasonably priced food and drinks won’t break your wallet. 5 stars all around.

This was not what I was expecting but in a good way. I thought this would be a larger restaurant but it is very small and quaint. We got here early just after 5 and pulled 2 tables together. It took a little while to get served but only because these was one staff member working. She did an amazing her name started with an A but can’t remember. I celebrated my birthday with my son and my brother. Bartender was more than willing to help us look for a couple bourbons. Prices for some bourbons were fantastic and others were a little off price but that’s my opinion and probably based on what they have to pay for bottles. The food was great except for the brisket on the platter. (Little tough and very spicy) but I just switched meals with my son. Everything else was amazing.

We stopped in for a couple of cocktails. My husband had a Bogged down and loved it. A had 2 Fighters Chance with the base of tequila, both were great, one might even be part of their spring menu. You can tell how carefully crafted their cocktails are and how much they enjoy creating them.

Excellent dirty gin martini. All the drinks are well made and there’s a good food menu too. We had the Chipotle hummus and then a plate of cookies at the end of the night.

Went with a few friends of mine for some apps and drinks. We got the garlic fries and spinach artichoke dip. Both were healthy portion sizes and very delicious! We also got the Autumnal spritz and a amaretto sour. They were both tasty but the autumnal spritz was light on the apple cinnamon flavor. Didn’t find those notes in the drink but still good. As always the vibe was nice, although we did go around 6pm and were pretty much the only ones in there so it was a bit quiet. You can park on the street or there is a paid parking lot next door. The bill for the 4 items came out to be around $58 before tip 🙂

Incredible smoked wings. Best I’ve had. Atmosphere is phenomenal. They had a DJ Gary Lamar playing awesome music. I will definitely be bringing my wife! Great mixologists and drinks prices were very reasonable for a delicious cocktail.

A friend suggested I give this bar a try, saying it seemed like the ideal bar I was looking for – he was right!
The decor is what I like to describe as upscale hipster – with eclectic furnishings and decor, dim lighting and a early 1900’s feel. It is in an old house they redid perfectly for a nice relaxed bar. It is two stories with bars on both floors making it pretty spacious and not over crowded.
The drink menu is OUTSTANDING and also decently priced. The Flaming lips cocktail is by far the best cocktail I have ever had 😀
I think what makes this place better than others though is the staff – super knowledgeable and engaged with their drink goers. The Manager Cam will talk to and drink with you and get to know you and want to hear your opinions. And Brooke the bartender besides crafting the greatest drinks and knowing her stuff is a sweetheart.
New favorite spot!

Super friendly staff. Everything was clean and ready to go. When they ran out of ingredients to make a Cuban they had the wonderful idea to make loaded Cuban Fries for me. The beverages were delicious. Will definitely visit again.
