The place was packed. Great conversations with the locals and the bartenders. Th bar is a small place with Brick walls and gives the feeling of an industrial classic bar! Great place. I will be back next time in town. Cheers!

Union Lodge No. 1 was a great experience!…read more We all ordered a new drink each time and selection is so large that nobody ever repeated a drink order! The server was very knowledgeable about all of the drinks and she encouraged us to order different things based on our personal likes even though she was fairly new serving at Union Lodge. Check this spot out. It would be great for a small group of friends or a couples spot to check out.

We sat at a table for at least an hour, tried several drinks, and honestly, they were all very good. And they have many options on the menu. I can't wait to go back and try some more drinks.

I grabbed some dinner next-door and decided to pop in and see what it looks like. The vibe was great, several rooms with the swampy decor and atmosphere, the menu is seasonal, and the cocktails are constantly changing, I can't remember which one I tried, but it was good, I recall it not being exactly what I expected but good. It was a Friday night around eight and was starting to get busy, when I turned around there was 10 people in line at the bar. Seating is plenty full, but since the bar was packed, it was limited, but we were able to rearrange some chairs and make a little space for ourselves. Definitely a good place to stop with friends on the way to something else, maybe not somewhere I'd spend the whole night as the cocktails are a little pricey for that and it starts and noisy, but definitely a smooth vibe

Ambiance is everything you expect a speakeasy to be. It's dark and intimate. The menu is big with a lot of creative options. Service is extremely friendly! I got the Stay Golden cocktail with malt gastrique fries. Both of which were CHEF'S KISS! Too bad I had a flight to catch in the morning or I would've been there all night to try more drinks!

This is an intimate speakeasy with limited seating so we did have to wait to get a table for 4 people. They had a full on cherry blossom theme - from the ambience, drinks to the bar snacks! Drinks were delicious and I actually enjoyed the spicy popcorn they had ( I am not a popcorn fan typically). Also, one of our friends is passionate about Japanese whiskey which he found here. Hope they come up with more themes in the future!

They've gotten do much busier though. There must've been over 30 people at the bar getting drinks. But the 4 bartenders at the bar were slinging them out quickly. Even though they were fast the drinks were extremely well made and the customer service wad amazing. The ambiance was great!! Everyone was here to have a good time. But no one was overly rowdy or raucous. People were friendly and conversational but stayed in their lanes also. Even though all these years have passed. And the pandemic has ravaged many businesses. The quality and service here still makes this place one of the best whiskey bars around!!!

The location alone is hard…read moreto beat - close to Union Station, Coors Field, and McGregor Square - and despite being right in the middle of everything, parking is surprisingly manageable with plenty of street spots and nearby garages. Their cocktails are consistently excellent, but the standout for me is the Gentleman's Buck. It's perfectly balanced, refreshing, and endlessly drinkable. I still wish they'd bring it back onto the happy hour menu! The staff makes the experience even better. Sam and Joshua are fantastic bartenders - friendly, welcoming, and genuinely great at what they do. They make the bar feel like a place you want to return to again and again. And if you're a whiskey fan, their Whiskey Wednesday events are always a blast. You can learn something new, try something interesting, and enjoy the lively atmosphere. Seven Grand delivers on all fronts: great drinks, great people, and a great location. Highly recommended!

Staff were polite and helpful and went out of their way to match us to a drink. I wish I could recall the name of my flaming drink because it was delightful. Also tried a drink with absinthe which felt decadent. Wonderful presentation of the drinks. Two caveats: bring your ID because a pic of your passport won't cut it here! And they have no food on the menu, although they brought us a bowl of kettle corn when we asked.

We were never presented with a cocktail menu, and it was as cold as a freezer in there. The drinks were well balanced and flavorful, but our server who took our order was behind the bar polishing glasses instead of making our drinks. One of our friends gave up and left. Speed it up! There was a line outside to get in. If drinks were made in a timely fashion you would get a lot more business! It would have been nice to see a menu to try something unique as well.

Once you get to the front door, they'll check your ID before letting you in, just to make sure there's enough seating to accompany your party. They also charge automatic gratuity if the party is larger than 6, I believe. The interior design is awesome with lots of cozy seats, fitting all party sizes. It's a great place to meet up with friends, while still providing a moody atmosphere if you want to bring someone on a date. The bartenders are pretty friendly and very knowledgeable. They have both a paper menu which has their latest concoctions, as well as their standard menu (ask for the deck of cards). My friends and I (4 of us total) came on a Friday night and it had a good amount of people without feeling too cramped. We ordered a wide variety of drinks, starting with a round of espresso martinis (which I would highly recommend). We had a few more rounds with each of us ordering separately. One of my friends asked our bartender for a suggestion and she really enjoyed her drink. However, my other friend got a suggested drink and did not like it at all. The bartender was kind enough to swap out his drink, which our group definitely appreciated. I'm definitely coming back and bringing any of my visitors who can appreciate a good cocktail.

It's tucked into the Milk Market alley, up some stairs, halfway through a kitchen, then down an elevator. But that's kind of the fun of it. It feels like a little scavenger hunt. Once inside, the experience is super cool. They give you a deck of cards to choose your cocktail from, all organized by alcohol like tequila, gin, whiskey, etc. That part alone is such a fun concept. The only thing that's a bit mid is the actual drinks themselves. The experience is so unique that it almost feels like they're hoping you forget the drinks aren't anything spectacular. It's definitely a cool bar if you're trying to impress someone, just don't expect mind blowing cocktails. Prices vary quite a bit too. Some cocktails are around $14, others go up to $25ish, with most sitting around $18. We ordered a margarita and a White Lady, and with tip it ended up being over $50. So take that how you will.

And yes... every drink is only $5 but heads up, it's cash only. The prices were so good we ended up staying for three drinks each and didn't even feel guilty about it. My husband and our friends ordered The Continental, a black cherry Old Fashioned, and it was absolutely delicious ,smooth, balanced, and full of flavor (I definitely stole a few sips). I went with a vodka pineapple and later a cranberry vodka, both refreshing and perfect. We loved the place so much that the guys even bought merch $10 t-shirts, which honestly felt just as affordable as the drinks. Amazing drinks, unbeatable prices, fun speakeasy vibes, and great memories. We'll 100% be back.

Atmosphere: The theme here is so cool! It's all about Abraham Lincoln but with a modern, artistic twist. There's really neat artwork everywhere showing different looks of Lincoln. It feels like a true old timey speakeasy. It gets very busy after 8 PM, so be prepared for a bit of a wait, but the energy inside is awesome. Price: This is the most budget-friendly spot I've found in the area. Almost everything is $5! It is CASH ONLY, but don't worry if you forget. They have an ATM inside for you to use. Drink: I ordered the Continental, which is their take on an Old Fashioned with a black cherry. It was delicious and definitely didn't taste like a cheap drink despite the price point. Service: Despite how packed it was, the service was incredibly fast. We got our drinks in maybe 2-3 minutes tops. The staff is efficient and friendly. Overall Experience: Whether you're visiting and staying near Union Station or just looking for a fun local getaway, I highly recommend this place. We walked from our hotel, but if you drive, be prepared to look for street parking or a garage. It's fun, cheap, and has great theme nights. I'll definitely be back!
