Great spot in the airport to grab a drink and a quick bite. Food was decent and Sebastian at the bar was friendly and attentive. He made it a great experience for everyone there. Worth a stop by on your way out of Love Field. Enjoy!!!

Clean and easy to get a spot to watch the TV and a drink. Not like some of the overcrowded other locations in the airport.

AV8 Bar & Cafe is a relatively new addition to Dallas Love Field and while I don't find myself visiting every time I am flying out of Love Field I will say that every time I have visited it has been a pleasant stop before my flight. Now AV8 may list itself as a bar and cafe all I have ever experienced has been the bar side of things so my review will reflect this fact. AV8 not only has a full bar but also offers a variety of wines as well as draft and bottled/canned beers. I have always opted for beer and will always go with something on draft, just a personal preference. Keep in mind that their taps/options do change and rotate so talk with your server to see what beers are being offered at present. Speaking of servers, I have always had positive and and friendly experiences with the staff here. Service has also been been fast and as involved or uninvolved as needed. Staff will let you chill, relax, work, whatever you need while you enjoy your drink and unwind. Recently Dallas Love Field has seen an increase in its dining and drinking options and AV8 Cafe is among those new offerings. The relaxed and no-frills environment, great rotating beer taps, and friendly service are among the reasons I keep coming back to AV8 Cafe.

Note,  no prices.  ASK!!

This is a small and chill place to have a beer, grab a bite, and get some work or relax. Friendly service and beers are on tap.

Parliament posted their rainy-day happy hour on Instagram the same day I visited, so I was…read moresurprised when the tall bartender with glasses told me the special only applied if it was actively raining at that exact moment. He literally told me, "If a drop of rain comes, then I'll give it to you." It had rained for much of the day, and multiple customers were asking about the same promotion. If the requirement is that rain must physically be falling while you order, that needs to be clearly stated in the advertisement. Otherwise, the promotion feels misleading. I've been to Parliament several times and have never had a bartender interpret the rainy-day happy hour this way. I ended up ordering a smoked Old Fashioned from another bartender I've had before, and it was great. He was friendly, engaging, had great energy, and even did tricks while making the drink. I still enjoyed my cocktail, but it would've been nice to have the option to order from the happy-hour menu as advertised that day. I'm including the Instagram post for reference. I'm very disappointed as I've never not had a good time at Parliament. I really think that the owner should look at the Times stamps around 930 to 10:15pm part night and see the difference of business and traffic flow from when the taller bartender with the glasses versus the shorter Bartender with the glasses was at the front as it was instantly more business. Oh and lastly, I left my Betsy JOHNSON purple umbrella. I'm so sad and they don't have a number to call.

We'll definitely be coming back! We decided to head to Lower Greenville as part of a night out and decided on Apothecary. We made a reservation for 8.45pm and the place was busy but not packed. The space is beautiful, dimly-lit, and intimate with couches or small tables. We were seated at one of the small tables and both decided to sit on the couch side of the table. Most couples were doing the same and the tables were spread out enough so that we all felt we had enough space. We started with two drinks (Private Barrel Old Fashioned and French Kissing) and two appetizers (Oysters and the Cevichos) . The drinks came out with the Oysters. The Old Fashioned was solid; the French Kissing was a beautiful drink and delicious. The Oysters were served with a touch of salsa, and they were excellent. We ordered a second round of drinks (the Loch'D Inn and another French Kissing) and they arrived with the Cevichos. I'm not a huge fan of scotch, but the Loch'D Inn was very good, with the sweet foam on the drink being fantastic (when my date went to the restroom, I tried to get more of it with my fork it was that good... I really needed a spoon ). Now to the Cevichos, which were the highlight of the night. They were ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC, and I will come back just for those. They were savory while also having a nice citrus flavor... just delicious. The only downside is that you have to eat them somewhat quickly as the chips on the bottom will get soggy if left too long. We closed the night with the Japanese Elotes and a Pekin Tom cocktail, both of which were delicious. The Elotes had so much flavor. Regarding the Pekin Tom, I appreciate that the smoke had a light flavor as the smoke in so many smoked cocktails overpowers the drink itself. That was not the case here -- really well done. The service is also top notch. Our server came by often, but never interrupted while we were deep in conversation. Another gentleman also checked on us twice. I don't know with certainty but I think he was either the manager or the bartender. He always asked about the drinks and made excellent recommendations.

I have visited pre and post the remodel. Still a favorite foe craft cocktail and the expanded menu…read moreis mush appreciated. Beef cheek tacos are a must. Bring a jacket, even for Texas the AC was especially high

The crab claws were TO DIE FOR, but that 24 Layer Cake, JoJo's Strawberry stole the show. I said it then and I'll stand on it now: that cake was the best thing I ate in 2021.

The dress code is STRICTLY enforced. We witnessed someone turned away so if your a male, pay close attention. This place is definitely date night atmosphere. Dimly lit, red curtains, upscale atmosphere. Our waiter was nice and attentive. He made good recommendations and we took him up on a few. I ordered the Pasta Zaza with Italian sausage along with the lobster Mac & Cheese. My wife ordered the Pesto rigatoni. The food came in about 30 minutes. The pasta zaza with sausage was DELICIOUS!! The Italian meat is an absolute MUST! Super flavorful the sausage was. The spicy sauce isn't that spicy either. I also had the Lobster Mac & Cheese. This is not your typical Mac and cheese. More like shells with cheese. The lobster though is plentiful and good. The Mac and cheese was almost the same size and the pasta Zaza. I wished the Zaza was a larger portion but it was still good. Overall Drake's is a great time. I loved my time there and I'd happily return the next time I'm in the Dallas area. Great service, good food, nice atmosphere. They do have bar area with TVs if you're looking to catch some sports.
