What a great gem to get your night started, or spend the whole evening. Rolled in here around midnight on a Saturday and the place was busy, but not packed. We were able to grab a few seats at the bar, which ends up being a great spot as you can see the bartender do his work.
The names on the menu are hilarious and the drinks are extremely brilliant. You can tell they spent a lot of time see what works and doesn't. If you're a rye/bourbon/whiskey/scotch fan and like your drinks a little hard like me, go with "The Arcadian" or "The Righteous One". Both keep the bite while adding subtle sweet flavours like maple syrup. The "Lion in a Coma" an interesting concoction and a bartender favourite. It combines thick IPA foam on the top, making it mealy, and a spicy note from jalapeno. My friends tried a couple of others and we concluded that this is definitely a big step above your typical restaurant cocktail list. They have a bunch of craft beers too, but why bother.
Service was top notch. The bartender was extremely courteous and personable, making recommendations along the way. The level of detail that goes along with these drinks really impressed me. I have never been a big fan of places like barchef, but am already excited to bring my friends back here.
