    Vodka soda and hive mind highball.
    MJ C.

    The cocktails were not very good. My favorite out of the 3 I ordered was the Hive Mind Highball. The Why Tai? was too strong and tasted artificial. It wasn't good. Pardon My French tasted like potpourri. The service was good the first day we visited but on the second day, the bartender was too busy to acknowledge us. On the first day, the bartender was very attentive and friendly. On the second day, we had to wait almost 10 minutes for the bartender to make eye contact. When he finally came over, we accidentally picked a beer that wasn't available, he said "that's coming soon" and just left without waiting for us to pick another beer. Rude! I didn't want to waste more $$$ at this bar so I told my husband to forget it .

    Took a while to be serviced by a bartender. Bar back was very attentive but couldn't make drinks. Saturday afternoon, seemed pretty steady.

    The Coffin Bar

    We were walking around the area and wanted a small bite - salad or some small eats. We walked…read morearound and around and couldn't find anything else that caught our eye so we went back to The Coffin. They welcomed us in, told us to sit at any open table. They stay true to their name with their decor. They were coffin shaped shelves, gothic/satanic themed wallpaper. It's all very well done. Very unique! One of the staff members came over to tell us that their beer and spirits are all from PA. This was music to our ears! We ordered a local IPA. We shared the Brussels Caesar salad. It had crispy brussels sprouts and arugula. Topped homemade crouton. Dusted with Parmesan. It was delicious! Loved this spot! Will go back the next time we're in town!

    Coffin Bar is one of the more distinctive brunch spots in Lancaster, and it works better in…read moredaylight than I expected. The vibe leans goth, with a definite metal/punk edge rather than a tightly curated "theme bar" look. It's not as uniformly designed as the name might suggest, but it is interesting and cohesive enough to feel intentional. During brunch, the space is well-lit, and they keep the heavy metal/thrash/punk soundtrack going at a very low volume, exactly the right choice. It supports the aesthetic without turning brunch into a performance. The food is the reason to come. The menu is built around the seven deadly sins (Lust, Gluttony, Wrath, etc.), and everything we tried was outstanding. Between the two of us we had Lust and Gluttony, and both were excellent, high quality, well-executed, and clearly made with care. Service was solid: efficient, reasonably quick, and professional. Not overly chatty, but attentive enough that you don't feel ignored. Drinks were fine. The mimosa and Bloody Mary were exactly what you'd expect: competent and enjoyable, nothing gimmicky. Logistics are also manageable for a downtown spot. Parking exists in the area, including garages nearby, and it's a comfortable walk if you're already in the city center. Overall: a fun, slightly offbeat atmosphere paired with genuinely great brunch food. If you like a darker aesthetic but still want a bright, relaxed daytime meal, Coffin Bar is an easy recommendation.
