The setup has a wow factor as you enter the basement level of the building through a tunnel covered in plants and leading straight to your first photo opp! The circle with pink bench is a cute preview of what's inside. Once you check in with the hostess, enter through a door and welcome to the social club. Beautiful decor that mixes a level of sophistication with a little drama as you see the bright lights. Plenty of seating and even a private room that can be rented out. The drinks are phenomenal and the staff is friendly! The menu offers a mix of unique cocktails (and can be made as mocktail a too) and small bites. Upon recommendation, I tried the F.W. Marg drink. So good! The most unique aspect is the watermelon ice cube. As it melts the drink flavor changes. Creative & fun way to enjoy a cocktail. They open at 5pm, which would be a great spot for chill happy hour. Later in the evening, you'll experience more of a lounge/club vibe. Great edition to downtown CLE!

You walk into a sports bar, let them know you have reservations for Vacancy, they take you downstairs to this quaint little lounge.

Since we had some time until our next reservation we ordered a second round here. This time I got the banana bread old fashioned and hubby got the tiramisu martini.

I was confused why they wouldn't let walk ins come down to the bar as first come first serve because the entire bar was wide open even though we had to wait for a half hour for a table, but I guess that's just the way they do things.

I had a margarita and an espresso martini and both cocktails exceeded my expectations! The lime margarita was classic, slightly tart, and made me want another.

The space is cool, speak easy vibes, and the gentleman playing the piano was a nice tough with an ideal volume.

I got excited, ready to enjoy myself. Security searched my Fanny pack THOROUGHLY. Took my rat tail comb, very much understandable. Felt very secure by that tiny gesture. Even asked if I had and tobacco products or vapes. Great way to secure and understand everything coming into your establishment. When I walked in, you could feel the vibrations within your skin. Nothing but smiles & dancers on the dance floor. Once at the bar I was greeted with a very welcoming and warm smile from the bartender Krissy. I ordered a Chakla (Hennessy, Sangria & Honey). S/O to Krissy for her great customer service and mixology skills. My drink was AMAZING!!! I'm not even a Cognac drinker but this drink *chefs kiss*. I then ordered Lamb Chops w/ Jollof Rice & Asparagus. Krissy let me know it would be a 40 minute wait but my food definitely came out in less than 30 minutes. Food was HOT, STEAMING!

The cocktails are categorized by alcohol content and have cute tiki bar related names. The server recommended the lumpia and it did not disappoint. Porco is definitely a place to visit again.

The whole place has a 1920s speakeasy vibe; the night we visited a wedding party was fully leaned into this in period attire making it extra fun. They have an okay beer list, it's more about the cocktails. Our bartender was helpful and friendly, despite a growing number of people getting complicated drinks.
