I chose "Marianna's Marvelous Old Fashioned" which was delicious and also strong. Staff was really nice, and I felt comfortable there.

It looks like you can even buy the books here. They also have some small bites and mocktails in addition to craft cocktails. I got their take on the old fashioned, which included orange and chocolate biscotti liqueur and cherry syrup. It was definitely more sweet than a typical old fashioned, however I enjoyed it, and it was prepared very well--spirit heavy. This was a nice sipper and service was great, no complaints!

Perfect amount of people. Great drink specials! My husband gave the Bloody Mary two thumbs up, and he is very picky about them! The live music was great. Overall loved the feel of this place. We visited twice in one weekend, and bought myself a Down Under hat. Really hope to return with my band someday and hopefully play here!

They really committed to the theme--every corner looks like it was pulled straight out of Whoville, and the attention to detail is honestly impressive. The space itself is kinda small, though. Cozy if you're with the right group, cramped if you're not. And while the staff was friendly and attentive, there was definitely... an energy in the room. Hard to put a finger on, but let's just say some folks seemed to fit the intended esthetic a lot more naturally than others. You can feel who this place was really designed to make comfortable. That said, the Grinch cocktail was a standout. Bright green, topped with cotton candy and a candy cane, super fun looking. They nailed the novelty drink game. Overall, it's a cool spot for the right people. If you're part of the crowd they clearly had in mind, you'll probably have an amazing time. If not... the decor isn't enough to stop in for.

We sat ourselves and were given menus to order from. They were out of a couple ingredients, so I could not order the drink I wanted. But the server recommended something similar I may like- which I really appreciated. My Saint Levant cocktail was exactly like described. Fruity, earthy, and funky. It was fun to try something so unique. Each flavor worked well with each other and each sip felt new. I really appreciated the care that went into everything and I can't wait to go back

It's got charm, character, and zero pretension. The service is always friendly, but never fake -- no forced small talk or over-the-top energy, just genuinely cool people who seem to enjoy what they do. It makes the whole experience feel laid-back and easy, like you're part of the regular crowd even if it's your first time. The rotating cocktail menu always has something fun to try, but the real star of the show is their Bloody Mary -- absolutely legendary. Bold, flavorful, and consistently on point. They've also got a patio, which is a great spot to hang when the weather's decent. The location is super convenient, especially if you're heading to or from a show at the Slowdown. Whether you're just stopping in for a drink or planning to linger, Trap Room nails that cozy, quirky neighborhood bar energy.
