Folks. Strap in. And prepare yourselves for some of the best damn cocktails, service and vibe you’re gonna find pretty much anywhere. My girlfriend had been wanting to introduce me to this place for months, and I’m SO glad we finally made it. I loved everything about it from the moment we walked in the door. We got lucky and there were two open seats at the bar, so we didn’t have to wait. We were greeted immediately by one of the owners as well as our mixologist, Ryan. I’m telling you, Ryan is a straight up magician, and you’re about to be delightfully under her spell. We were only planning on having one drink and ended up trying six (between the two of us). The menu is as entertaining to read as the cocktail ingredients are unique and playful. The vibe is chill, but lively, with great music. The atmosphere overall is cozy, inviting, and somewhat dimly lit. There is a loft area in back where they have couches and other fun seating options, but we didn’t spend any time there (this time). We also didn’t have anything to eat, hence the zero stars (which I hope doesn’t hurt this review as I will change it immediately if so, because this place deserves nothing but praise). We will most CERTAINLY be back. The cocktails are truly an adventure in a glass. They are one of a kind, expertly crafted and absolutely delicious. All in their own expressive ways. The attention to detail is astounding, and my only comparison would have you hopping a flight to “Bar Chef” in Toronto. But do yourself a favor, save yourself the international flight, and go give yourself an experience that will make you want to write a love letter of a review on Google! Lol (BTW, these pics don’t do it any kind of justice.) Go see for yourself!!

This is not your regular, run-of-the-mill bar experience! Don’t get me wrong, they’ll make your favorite drink for you, if that’s what you want. But, these guys spend hours every day prepping some very unique drinks that you won’t find anywhere else! And, the menu rotates on a regular basis, so there’s always something new! If you’re looking for something different, this place is for you!

Creative, fresh cocktails in a warm, welcoming space. All cocktails are seasonal and the craft bartenders are accommodating and engaging. Bring a book, bring a date, soak it in! Maybe the best cocktail spot in the burbs, so far.

Great cocktail spot right by the train station! The cocktail bar atmosphere is romantic and at $14 for most cocktails and $8 for non-alcoholic, I’d say these are all reasonably priced! They make their drinks with attention to the little details which puts a nice touch to their drinks. Of course there are the classic cocktails, but I’d love to come back and try more of their seasonal menu.

Still is my favorite neighborhood bar, and honestly, it’s ruining other bars for me. The cocktails are so good it’s borderline suspicious, the staff is friendlier than my relatives, and the service is so smooth I half-expect them to hand me a robe and slippers.

The cocktail Mr. Milchick’s Terrible, Awful, No Good, Very Bad Day? Ironically, it turned my day into a spectacular, wonderful, exceptionally good, very fine evening. It’s hands down the best drink I’ve had in years—like a warm hug in a fancy glass.

Sure, it’s a bit pricey, but totally worth it. If I had a drinking buddy, I’d be here so often they’d name a barstool after me. Until then, it’s just me, my drink, and the strong urge to be best friends with everyone behind the bar.

Perfect neighbor bar, great atmosphere, and yet better cocktails

This time I tried the Radagast’s Brown cocktail – Morel Mushroom Gin, Benedictine, Sweet Vermouth
Angostura. Exciting, different drink if you are open to adventuring.

COFFEE HOUSE REVIEW:

This place is a TRUE GEM. Stopped by this morning to check out their new coffee offerings: Metric Coffee + Bang Bang Pie Goods + Do-Rite Donuts = Heaven. The service was kind and welcoming. I picked up some iced lattes, biscuits and pies. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it a perfect spot to bring your laptop and get some work done. We’re lucky to have this place around!

Highly recommend this cocktail house, the service was excellent, the staff were very knowledgeable about the drinks they were serving and made excellent suggestions. The owners were around and made the experience very delightful. The bartender custom made me a drink based on my preferences. It was a smaller bar but the atmosphere was fun. Prices were reasonable given the drinks they made.

A Perfect Blend of Uniqueness and Ambience at Common Good Cocktail House.

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing Common Good Cocktail House, and the word ‘experience’ is used deliberately. Every aspect, from the distinctive drink offerings to the outstanding service, contributed to a memorable evening that was well beyond the standard bar or restaurant visit.

What immediately caught my attention was the unique selection of drinks. The cocktail list was unlike anything I’ve seen before, boasting a mixture of time-honored classics infused with a fresh twist, and completely original creations. Each concoction was a testament to their mixologist’s creativity, combining ingredients that, on paper, might raise an eyebrow, but in practice, work in harmony to create a symphony of flavors.

The ambience of Common Good Cocktail House is the perfect partner to their unique drink offerings. A sense of relaxation washes over you the moment you walk through the door. It’s a chilled environment where time seems to slow down, a rare gem in the bustling city. The décor blends modern aesthetics with cozy comfort, creating a vibe that is eclectic, inviting, and oh-so-cool.

Above all, the excellent service deserves special mention. Our server, CJ, was a breath of fresh air. She was very attentive and friendly, making us feel valued and welcomed. Her knowledge of the menu was impressive, and she was able to provide expert recommendations that perfectly matched our tastes. CJ’s passion for the craft and her commitment to ensuring a great guest experience truly exemplified the spirit of Common Good Cocktail House.

In a world filled with mundane and carbon-copy eateries, Common Good Cocktail House shines as a beacon of uniqueness, comfort, and superb customer service. It is a place I am already planning my return to, and I recommend it to anyone seeking a refreshingly different drinking experience.

Be sure to ask for CJ!
