So after visiting Makers and Finders for a Yelp Event the CM Nate suggested we meet up at the Velveteen Rabbit for a drink. I was in right away as the name conjured up what had to be a unique experience. As we walked from M&F to Velveteen Rabbit I was imagining in my mind what I might encounter. Would Timothy Leary be the doorman and was it going to be a wildly decorated place.
What I found was a great locals bar that makes the kind of drinks I love. They have unique drinks that you don't find at other bars. I don't want something I can make at home I want some crazy delicious concoction to wow me. The Screaming Skull and Hierophant were both very unique and just what I needed after the coffee influx. The Hierophant with the flamed orange giving it a smoky flavor was the standout. I wanted to have another but decided I had better not as I was driving. Their prices are quite reasonable considering the amount of alcohol and quality of their drinks.
The interior is well decorated and fits the name and eclectic vibe. The bartenders took good care of us and were super friendly. It wasn't very noisy so talking was easy and you didn't even have to yell. It was so nice to go to such a unique bar and have some amazing drinks. I can't wait to go back and try more of their unique concoctions. Velveteen Rabbit is a perfect place to meet up and have a amazing drink and chat. Thanks Nate for the awesome suggestion!
