The most unique selection of cocktails I've encountered on a menu! My husband had the cornbread old fashioned & loved it. I'm partial to coconut but wanted something different so I ordered the Ethiopian Colada. WOW! Such a unique blend of flavors. I felt like I was drinking a delicious sweet curry. Waitstaff was incredible on the snowy night before Thanksgiving- three different servers kept our water topped off and drinks coming. A great place to chill out while we waited for our dinner reservation across the street. So cozy- much preferable to a loud, crowded bar. This is a place to cozy up in a corner with old friends or a date and savor the cocktails. Get the chips and onion dip if you are munch!
Such a cool cocktail bar with a fun vibe! It's in the perfect location on bridge street right next to so many other good restaurants and bars. I like coming here for post dinner drinks because the cocktails are truly an experience here! The service has always been great and they're very patient whenever me or my friends ask what certain things ar ein a cocktail.
Easily one of my favorite cocktail bars in Grand Rapids! Located on bridge street near Fratelli's this cocktail bar is such a good spot for a pre-dinner or post-dinner drink! Love the atmosphere and energy from the staff here! The space is small so you occasionally have to wait for a spot, but they do have a waitlist. Each time I've been here it's been packed but the drinks come out super great every time. The bartenders have not missed once! Highly recommend the espresso martini!
So glad a friend recommended this place! Such a cool environment - swanky bar, comfy cocktail table chairs and booths. Love the menu, which is split up into different themes. There were at least one or two cocktails on each theme that sounded delicious, and a little something for everyone! They even have mocktails, if you don't want an alcoholic beverage! I had the word to the wise- their take on an old fashioned and it was great! Next time I will definitely be trying the Five Points Kelly! Attentive waitress and bartenders. Great sport for a date night or after work cocktail !
A wonderful cocktail bar on the Bridge Street! The place offers an intimate yet classy vibe with amazing drinks and a highly attentive staff. The menu is very creative and unique. We were not disappointed by any of the drinks we ordered during our visit!
My husband & I found this gem on our first visit to Grand Rapids, MI. This place has a terrific concept whereby all the bartenders participate in the menu, which rotates and has a theme. Plus, and as many ingredients as can be made in house are created on site. When my husband & I visited, the theme was "Apothecary" and I enjoyed the Peruvian Blue Pill while my husband enjoyed the Five Points Kelly. See attached images from the menu. Jordan, our primary bartender was so great to talk to. He asked us about ourselves and recommended other cool places for us to try & asked for recommendations in our hometown. I was so pleased I sent an email to Diners, Drive-ins & Dives to encourage Guy Fieri to visit. We would definitely make this "our place" if we were locals :).
Great spot for unique delicious cocktails! We stopped in before a night out and had a great time. It's quaint with very relaxing seating and super cool bar. The manager and server were super attentive
While I'm much more of a beer person than a cocktail person, it is nice to change it up sometimes. I stopped in here with a group of girlfriends on a Friday night after dinner across the street. We were surprised that they were able to seat our group of 5 right away! It's definitely a darker, loungey environment, made darker by the rainy weather. I didn't feel like it was too dark though, and I like the lighting accents. Not terribly surprising, the drinks are abotu $12 - $18 each. I had the Dock of the Bae, and as described on the menu it is "fruity but not too sweet." It was very tasty, and not too heavy-handed on the tequila. We all took a sip of each others drinks, and they were all quite good. I didn't love the uppercut, but mezcal is totally not my thing. I particularly liked the Samurai Retox. I thought about ordering it myself, but was put off by the egg white. It was delicious though! As primarily a beer drinker I probably won't go back often, but if someone suggests it on a night out I definitely will not be opposed!
It seems like a new cocktail bar is opening weekly in Grand Rapids these days. It's fun to check them out and try a new drink every once in awhile, so Nate and I went in recently while in the area trying some new spots. Drip Drop is located in the former upstairs area of Sovengard, right next to Fratelli's on Bridge Street. The spot is cozy and very dark. It has a bit of an upscale, big-city vibe, but people were dressed casually. I liked the soft booth seating and the comfy chairs we sat in. The menu is small but had some interesting-sounding options. I went with the dock of the bae, a tequila-based fruitier drink, and Nate got the five points kelly, a different take on an old fashioned. It was SO dark inside, which can be good or bad and maybe I'm getting old, but it was just a touch too dark for me. The dock of the bae was okay; I liked the strawberry vibe, but it wasn't anything super innovative. We both really enjoyed the five points kelly. It was smooth and nuanced with some interesting flavors. It smelled and tasted a bit like anise to me. At $18 it was one of the most expensive cocktails I've had in Grand Rapids, so it's probably not something I'd get often. Prices range from $11 to $18 for cocktails. They also had two beer options (All Day IPA and PBR) and a red or white wine option for $14 a glass. Food options include chips and dip, a cheese and charcuterie plate, olives, and salted nuts. We were only grabbing one drink, and it took a really long time to get our bill. Our server was very sweet, though. I'll probably stick to my favorite spots that are cheaper, a bit more innovative, and closer to home, but I might stop in again if in the area.
NIce little place right near the river in Grand Rapids. Proper artisan cocktails await you in a comfy, small space. Bartenders were skilled and friendly. I got what I always get at any cocktail bar - an Old Fashioned. And they did it right. Had a nice conversation with the bartender cocktail waitress.
Fun and unique menu! Prices average around $14-$16 per cocktail. The Doc of the Bae was well rounded and was a perfect way to end the night. As the menu stated: fruity but not too sweet. They also change their menu on a regular basis so always a reason to return and try something new.
Love this place! It was perfect for some pre dinner drinks but I could see us coming here for a nightcap as well. We tried their lavender haze, dock of the bar, and their humidor. All came out looking amazing and so fun. The dock of the bae was my favorite. It was fresh and fruity but not super sweet. They have some snacks like olives, nuts, and charcuterie as well. The staff was all attentive and gave good advice when ordering. They were quick and when my husband pulled out his card to pay they came right over with the tab before we even asked. The vibes are chill with a romantic vibe. There is only one rest room that is one stall but the place is pretty small so there wasn't ever a line. I will for sure come back. They had a ton of drinks on their menu and all looked really good.

I'd heard their espresso martini is one of the best in Grand Rapids and boy it lived up to the hype! The vibe in here is swanky yet approachable. Soft seating and warm but dark and intimate, perfect for date night or a bar crawl with friends. The menu is expansive with something for everyone's taste. The servers and bartenders are super knowledgeable and happy to help make a selection if you know what you normally like. The espresso martini has a salted bite to it while being robust and smooth. Very strong without overpowering. My husband got the root beer float option and it was a fun whimsical interactive option that he enjoyed, it was stronger with more of a strong alcohol taste but still enjoyable. Definitely a great option for folks in Grand Rapids and we will be back for more! read more

One of the cutest cocktail bars in the area! The menu is broken down into different categories (joy, intrigue, etc) creating a custom drink for your custom feeling. Our server Connor was great- and had great recommendations. Awesome vibes, and delicious cocktails. read more

Love the low lighting! Feels very lounge-y. I noticed there's an inconsistency with the drinks, aside from that it is a cool place. read more

Tried the brown butter old fashioned and the strawberry cream with vodka, and enjoyed both! Space was nice inside with dimmed lights, but it did get quite loud around 9:30pm. Service was nice and standard. read more

I always enjoy a good cocktail bar, especially when they have a unique spin on their drinks and the bartenders have the ability to make something up on the fly based on your preferences. While I did not try the latter, we tried a handful of their cocktail menu items and really enjoyed it! The place has a great date night vibe, in the old space of Sovengard (upstairs), as it's super cozy, and seats a decent amount for 2 (though, I'd love for the tables against the wall to be a bit shorter - given there is no food, the excess space on the table makes it harder for you to have convos with your date (if you want to really cozy up). I sat right beneath a light, so I didn't feel like it was too dark, but some parts of the bar were very dark (especially towards the front). Cocktails are fairly expensive though, so if you're going in with that in mind, you'll have a great time! read more

Hanging out at Drip Drop, the staff Dom and Jordan were the most amazing hosts, the atmosphere is so vibey with the low lights and amazing flavors. I came back for the second time and have had such fantastic experiences with the conversations and chats. I would come here in a heartbeat. read more
We came into Drip Drop around 6:30 on a Thursday night, and we were able to be seated right away. The first thing we noticed coming in was the art and the ambiance-we loved the decor and the chill vibe of the bar. We were comfortable right away, and remained so for the duration of our stay. They are fancy and laid back! Looking at their menu, I appreciated being able to see the drinks before ordering. Their spirits cover a lot of range, and they even have more behind the bar. We had the option of ordering from the menu, or asking for the bartender to make a mystery drink. Our waitress was really great with her descriptions and took extra care in making sure our drinks were exactly what we wanted. I ultimately couldn't choose between my two cocktails, so I went with the two I liked the most: Clockwork Chipotle: This was wonderful-while the chipotle was the star of this cocktail, it did not crowd out the rest of the flavors. This one was very complex and well named. Uppercut: This tequila sour was SOUR-this drink made me pucker in all of the right ways. The balance in this cocktail was incredible, and this was my favorite cocktail I enjoyed on the entire Grand Rapids trip. They even feature the picture of this cocktail on their website! The presentation of both was wonderful. The quality was the best we could have asked for, and I even was able to personalize my drinks a little bit more. I was drawn by the spiciness and the robustness of the pepper based agave and tinctures, and was able to get my drinks with more of those presences. Drip Drop was a perfect place for good conversation and a good time. We loved this so much that we came back on Saturday night. For this round, I ordered the Division Bell for something smoky and mellow. This cocktail hit the spot. A Saturday night at Drip Drop was more crowded than a Thursday night but it was still very relaxing and a great way to unwind from the week! read more
Stopped by for a cocktail before getting sushi last Friday night. Arriving at 5:45, there was still plenty of seating available. The cocktail menu is somewhat short, however it had a good variety as far as spirits featured and flavor profiles. I'd like to see a couple more options. I think because the menu is smaller, some patrons might hesitate to ask for a traditional martini or old fashioned, etc. Judging by the number and variety of bottles behind the bar, they could serve up all the standards if the "House Specialties" or "Classics with a Twist" don't speak to you. My friend really enjoyed her Samurai Retox. I liked the Uppercut, though I feel like the egg white tamed any of the zing I expected out of the jalapeño-infused agave. Loved the interior design and vibe. It did get a little noisy to hold a conversation as it got busier, but that's likely reduced if you're not across from the bar. read more
Finally Grand Rapids has a craft cocktail bar with knowledgeable bartenders . My wife loves her cosmos and this was by far the best . My first was the dressed up old fashioned with banana and chocolate bitters and Irish whiskey . What a treat ! For my second I went with bartenders choice where he asked me questions and then crafted a cocktail . A black Manhattan with Amaro and Punt E Mus was the result . Served up .... Amazing read more

Stopped in for a night cap, I had the word to the wise and my partner tried their espresso martini after we asked a neighboring table if they liked it since it was tequila based. It was delicious and properly balanced as I'm not a tequila fan and I would definitely order one there. Cute small little bar super friendly staff comfortable chairs and fun decor. Everyone in the bar areas was in good spirits and overall the atmosphere was great. Nice stop off to have sophisticated beverages and be with people who appreciate those cocktails. read more

Delicious and very unique cocktails! I had the Machu Pisco--a beautiful berry-colored and fun take on a Pisco sour. My friend had the Lavender Haze which smelled as good as it tasted! The service was good--she kept checking in on us. The seats are lounge-style. Good stop if you're making your way along Bridge Street! read more

The decor is cozy upscale but comfortable. The service was attentive without being distracting. The drinks still manage to steal the show. On our visit we tried a whiskey sour (rating: 4.8/5), a Five Points Kelly {Irish whiskey cocktail with coffee/chocolate notes} (rating: 4.0/5), and the final drink and best of the night was the Samurai Retox {delicious rye whiskey amaretto sour} (rating:5.0/5). We give our strongest possible recommendation to try this great cocktail room. read more
