What a great find! We stumbled across the Old Crow when looking for some bars in the area. The…read moreinside is really cool and has a lounge-y feel to it. My friend and I wound up sitting at an isolated table in the courtyard because the weather was nice. I ordered the hanky panky, which surprisingly I really enjoyed! Normally I don't drink liquor, but decided that I ought to try something out of my comfort zone. My friend got the pineapple princess which she really enjoyed! We also ordered the cheese board, which I don't believe is in the menu, but our waiter said that they could throw one together - seriously one of the best that we've had! The menu consists of probably 50+ drinks, each of them unique to the bar. I would definitely come back here if I ever find myself in Zurich again!

One of the most recommended spots when we were researching cocktail bars in town, so of course we…read morecame to check it out! Our large group was seated in the back area which had a cozy ambiance and interesting decor. I ordered the Strawberry Club which was pretty and refreshing! We also got a tiny complimentary bowl of rice cracker snacks to munch on, although I feel like we should have been given more since we were a huge party spanning multiple mini tables. One thing that was uncomfortable was that there were 2 people in our group that didn't want to drink and therefore did not order anything. Even when this was explained, it felt like staff was pushing them to order a drink. We came here in the late afternoon and were the only party there, so it's not like they were taking seats away from paying customers.

A really interesting new cocktail bar in Strasbourg, that is definitely worth a detour…read more We went there with a friend of mine and were welcomed immediately, with a staff finding us a cozy and a comfy spot. The lights were not too bright, not too dim, and the music along with the decoration were rather quite tasteful. I fancy myself a cocktail connoisseur (if not snob), so I decided to go with classical cocktails that I know well - a Brooklyn and a Mai Tai. Both are classics, but are tricky to get right and really exhibit the quality of ingredients well. I was pleasantly surprised that the waiter immediately recognized the Brooklyn and offered me a couple of options for the main spirit. The only complaint that the only rye they were offering was Bulleit (meh for the dill off-flavor), and for bourbons it was Buffalo Trace (a great whiskey, but somewhat devoid of personality). Given that they had Woodford and Rittenhouse on the whiskey menu, I would not minded them to offer me to pay a bit more to get a more premium spirit. After all, at 14 euros for the drink, it's not an unreasonable price for well-made craft cocktails. Similarly, there is somewhat a split in bartending community due to Picon availability and transition to amer-biere instead of bitters as to complement or event substitute it with Angostura bitters, which would have been a good question to ask. Other than that, The Brooklyn was good, served in a Nick-and-Nora and a true Maraschino cherry. Not the absolute best I've ever seen, but a solid 8/10 and for 14 euros in such a nice setting - totally not a bad deal! For a classic MaiTai, the trick is double. First is the choice of the right rums blend, and the second is the balancing between orgeat and lime, to make sure that the cocktail is neither too sweet, nor too sour. In case of Le Douanier, the balancing was somewhat off in both departments. While they used very decent rums (Plantation 3* and a different Plantation), they did not use a Jamaican rum, leaving on the table rich funk notes and nuttiness that would make an outstanding Mai Tai. Similarly, since they used the house-made orgeat that tend to be less sweet than the 1940s-1960s commercial stuff for which the original recipe was formulated, the initial drink was a tiny tad too acidic. However, with the ice melting and dilution that followed, the acid has mellowed for a very decent drink towards the end. Once again, not the absolute best I've ever seen, but a very decent version of a very tricky drink, especially for a non-Tiki establishment. And for 13 -+ was a very correct price! My friend grabbed a sweet banana liquor-forwards drink from menu, which came in a bowl and was richly decorated. While a bit too sweet for me, it was exactly to her taste, especially as the ice melted a bit. Overall, a very good first impression and a staff passionate about the cocktails, likely building up their liquors collection and hopefully still to experiment. It does not dethrone Code Bar as the best cocktail bar in Strasbourg, but it shows promise and is definitely worth a visit, especially if what you want is comfy social drinking.

Great bar, the cocktails are tasty, the service is great, friendly waiters. Nice ambience, music is…read morenot too loud so you can still have a conversation.
