I absolutely love the vibe of this bar/venue! The first bartender that took care of me was disappointed to tell me that there were no olives to craft me a Filthy Martini, but he did have a beautiful and very rare bottle of Italian Vermouth to try to make up for it. I presume what I was handed to be the driest martini in history, with a little dash of sweet. It was good, and fulfilled my immediate craving. I learned from this experience, and asked my next bartender what she recommended. She proceeded to change my life forever by making me a Colonial Buck. OMG. I could drink this cocktail every single day! It is a twist on a Moscow Mule, with little hints of grapefruit and strawberry with the classic ginger beer, shaken to shit, and served right in the metal shaker glass. Best summer drink downtown, get it in your mouth soon!
They also keep all cigarette smoking out back on their cutesy patio, so you can actually breath in there. Cheers!
