Amy has worked so hard to make this happen for the community here, and even if she won't say it I will proudly tell you she is a huge advocate for helping her fellow humans be it feeding those who are displaced or collecting school supplies for local kids... but back to the bar!!! the atmosphere is so laidback and yet has a sophisticated vibe so you can't argue the ambiance is here! I can't wait to see what happens next with this one of a kind gem in the heart of downtown Hamilton. I heard she's even renting the top floor out for exclusive events so stay tuned and stop in, Karaoke and have a great time with friends!

Take yourself out on your own darn date. Why not?…read more You deserve it. And when you do..... Order the Pink Starburst for 10 buckeroos. A steal. It's pretty and pink and glows. Second choice was an expressotini. The crab rangoons for 6 bucks are a steal. Who can't resist crispy fried filled puffs filled with cream cheese ? Not this girl. Then I took Anthony's suggestion and went with a coconut spaghetti. If you're wondering what that is...... It's flippin fabulous. It's mandarin egg noodles tossed with shrimp, vegetables, in a savory brown sauce. Sold. The curiosity alone was enough to order it. Now on to the ambience. 9.5 outta 10. The music is in the background and not too loud to not hear the conversations your eavesdropping on in the next booth. And any place you go and hear Fleetwood Mac is a plus. The bar has a cool vibe and you don't have to break the bank. And!!! best part yet, there are books all around the place to read if you get bored or have a boring date. And Lori is such a darn hard worker with a smile a great hair. And thankfully, they do Apple Pay.

Our waitress was Sheridan and she provided absolutely superb service. Major shout-out. They didn't have the beer my husband ordered so she took the initiative to return to the table with two samples of similar beer for him to try. She answered all our questions and made appropriate recommendations. We were checked on often enough, a soda refill appeared without my asking, and she neatly boxed up our leftovers. She was pleasant and kind and one of the best servers ever. Very classy decor here; subtle touches of the orient; wood, leather, and...books! And a very elegant bar. Motown music was playing, and festive but not excessive Christmas decorations were up. And yes, a fortune cat was there to greet us. Food arrived quickly. We had the Thai Dumplings app which was just enough for two to whet the appetite. It was tangy and peanutty and the cool cucumber slices a perfect contrast. My husband had the Green Mango Grouper and loved it. I had a taste and it was fantastic, fresh white fish and delectable toppings, spice level 2 was just right. I tasted it and agreed it was excellent and right then we made plans to return. I had Siam Curry with chicken. Full of flavor and wonderful vegetables especially the snow peas. Spice level 3 is described as Thai Spicy and they are not kidding. They do not wimp out on the spice here so use caution. (For example at Thai Thara in Richmond Indiana I go with 5 of 5 and I still need to add some spice.) Sheridan brought extra chili oil if needed. I would recommend erring on the side of lower spice with the option to add. We took home an order of Singapore Noodles to share for supper tomorrow along with our leftovers. I snuck a taste before putting it away and it's delicious! Looking forward to another visit soon and I think I'll try one of their cocktails. Highly recommended!

The bartender was handling the table service this evening and did a great job. You would have thought that she had known us for years. She is super friendly! It wasn't crowded tonight when we got there but it did pick up quick. Despite the additional guests that came in she was on top of it. My wife ordered a Diet Coke and I ordered a tall Miller Lite. The draft beer was exceptionally cold which I like. We ordered our food which was 6 buffalo wings for me with a wedge salad and Bleu cheese. My wife ordered the shepherd's pie with came with a small salad. When our food came out the presentation was great as well as piping hot. She had to let her entree cool a bit before eating it. My wings were very meaty and loaded with sauce. (No need to ask for extra) The wedge salad was huge and delicious as well. I got their homemade Bleu cheese with it and definitely don't regret that. Note the wings came with Bleu cheese and celery also. My wife loved her salad and couldn't stop raving over the Shepherds pie. I did get a taste and must agree with her on how good it was. I took half of my salad and a full Bleu cheese home with me for tomorrow and my wife also brought home half of her meal. We ended up ordering the brown butter cake to split for desert which I will say was outstanding. We will surely go back and only wish that we had tried it sooner. Don't sleep on this one or you will be missing out.

The restaurant is located within the Hilton Tapestry hotel in downtown Hamilton. It has both an inside and outside entrance. They have a good selection from their stocked bar.

Afterwards we shared the Guiness bread pudding with ice cream. Overall the food was excellent. Keep in mind this is located in a higher end hotel so prices are a bit more but not a show stopper.

It is an escape from the crowded, noisy environment that one finds at the sports facility across the street, and I am grateful that Hydraulic Bar is here to provide an oasis. The space is great; a view of the river, nicely decorated bar and dining room, and within the re-purposed Champion Paper Mill. Service is good; I usually hang at the bar and have always been well taken care of. Bar is good; a lot of draft beer selections and decent cocktails. Prices are reasonable; especially weeknights when they have half-price appetizers during happy hour. So why three starts? The food is hit or miss, and sometimes enough of a miss for it to be an issue. I've eaten quite a few items off the menu. The GIANT pretzel is a hit for sharing. (is indeed Colossal). The appetizer tacos are good. The pizzas are quite small and mostly crust (not enough cheese and toppings). The jalapenos on the stuffed jalapenos were undercooked and super-crispy like an uncooked jalapeno. The nachos were bad; a tray of chips with cheese whiz and a scoop of sour cream plopped in the middle. They have some sandwiches and salads also I haven't tried. I like the space, I like the bar, I am grateful to have this place to hangout, but the FOOD needs work. Would recommend as a place to hang out, but this is NOT a place for a meal.
