    I am not a bourbon drinker but my husband is. This place is more of an experience and vibe and less of a tasting room. My husband looked this place up to taste the maple bacon bourbon but we ended up walking into a room with a bar and some music and sitting areas to relax and enjoy . We dId get to taste some bourbon and the flavors were really good. But with the music going on, we grabbed a few drinks and listened to the music. It was an acoustic afternoon and great vibe. They also have a back room stage area where a band was setting up. This was an awesome place we found.

    Excellent visit to your place this past Wednesday. Picked up some small bottles, had a flight as an appetizer & a great old fashioned for desert. My bartender was knowledgeable, entertaining & inviting. Will definitely return. Hopefully you'll have dog snacks next visit.

    Super cool lights everywhere

    I am obsessed. I have never been until today. I went for the Mother's Day psychic event. First of all, any place that has a big Johnny Cash flipping the bird is for me. The light fixtures everywhere are so cool! Vintage, haunting, colorful! The merchandise is TOP TIER. Most of the items go up as high as 3x, which is hard to find most places. The vibe is bad-ass with a dash of speak easy. Everything about it is unique down to the furniture. I loved it. The service was quick and timely. The bartenders were pleasant and efficient. They all knew exactly what they were doing. I know it's hard. I appreciated that! I will 10/10 recommend this place- AND wear my new rattlesnake Rosie shirt with pride!

    I don't know how I've lived in this area for so long and never stopped here. Absolutely amazing atmosphere, good drinks, good entertainment, super friendly staff. If you're in the area, it's a must see and try it. Perfectly located in the village.

    Had a truly great time at Iron Smoke. Very cool design , large with almost almost a modern warehouse feel, two rooms semi-divided by a wall so that the sitting bar area and band/dance floor area are separated which makes it a lot easier to talk and get away from the louder music for a bit if you want. However they had a incredible coverband that's night M80s, and the place was really bumping. Good vibes, fast service at the bar despite a pretty busy night, friendly staff. Very unique drink offerings esp their home-stilled whiskeys - apple pie whiskey was a standout. Would return.

    Iron Smoke Distillery is a whiskey lover's paradise that combines outstanding whiskeys, creative cocktails, and a captivating atmosphere. The expertly crafted cocktail drinks strike a perfect balance between the richness of the spirits and innovative flavor combinations. The cocktail menu offers something for everyone. I appreciate the distillery's ambiance which combines a warehouse-style setting with Western mining decor. The rustic charm, and vintage artifacts create an authentic atmosphere that immerses guests in the theme. Iron Smoke have ample space for live entertainment. Talented live music artists grace the stage weekly. This place is a haven for whiskey enthusiasts seeking a vibrant, lively experience. A visit to Iron Smoke Distillery promises to be a journey into the heart of NY whiskey craftsmanship, where flavors, decor, and live entertainment converge to create a truly remarkable experience.

    Amazing Distilery! Love their Small Batch Straight Bourbon, Bottled & Bond and the Maple Bacon makes an amazing Old Fashion. Must visit. Especially if you like booze and live music.

    We absolutely loved this place and have not stopped telling everyone about it since we visited. This place is located in an industrial area in downtown Fairport NY with plenty of parking. The decor is fantastic and the staff were beyond friendly. This distillery makes whiskey. I am not usually a fan of whiskey but OMG the drinks here are amazing. The bartenders takes such care in making the best cocktails possible. I got the Mule and can't wait to have another one. My husband tried a few different cocktails and loved them all. If you want other things to drink they have all locally sourced drinks including beer, liquors, seltzers, etc... The also have an amazing store with awesome merch and bottles of their whiskey. We brought a bottle to go and had put friends try it and they all devoured it. They even offer distillery tours and have an awesome line up of events. We live over an hour away but we already have so many tips planned to come back!

    One of my favorite venues in the area. We to see a local group, Mochester perform and they brought it! Great ambiance, solid performance and even a marriage proposal! As far as the Iron Smoke Distillery itself, you can see by the photos that it isn't your average bar with a bar and some high top tables and chairs. There's always a neat little niche with eclectic, comfy furniture to find and listen to performers. The staff is fantastic and service was on point last night. Looking forward to going back.

    Really cool distillery never been here before, but heard they were having karaoke night and decided to check it out. It's nice they have couches you can sit at with tables. They have tall tables as well. They don't serve food there, but you can bring your own in which is cool. The service was good everyone was friendly. The people were great. The karaoke was awesome, they had a live band that played music and you can go up and sing. If you are looking for something fun to do and you like to sing. I recommend checking this place out, bring friends and family. You'll have a blast!

We came as a larger group and they were nice enough for us to order from the breakfast menu as they switched over the lunch menu at 11:30am. Our table enjoyed the food but all agreed it wasn't worth the price point. I tried the chocolate croissant with homemade butter and maple bacon jam along with the Canadian bacon Benedict. The chocolate croissant was nice with the maple bacon jam but definitely not worth the price point of $12. The croissant was quite smaller, like the chocolate croissants you can get from Costco or Starbucks. The Canadian bacon eggs Benedict however was delicious and I really enjoyed it! I just am not sure again it was worth the high price point. However I definitely felt the service was missing. As we were the only ones in the dining area, I felt the service was missing the mark. The server saw we were carrying a baby in the restaurant but didn't ask if we wanted a high chair. My mother-in-law spied it in the corner and then we had to ask for it and we proceeded to set it up at the table. As I was with 2 young kids, I ordered some simple items before the main course like their chocolate croissant and fruit cup. I assumed the server would ask if we wanted those ahead of time but that didn't happen. He also had forgotten my son's drink order and which my son actually had to ask him after some time "where's my juice?" My older son had ordered the s'mores waffles and it looked good when it was delivered but as I cut some of it for me to try later on, I soon realized the batter was uncooked in the middle of most of them. I was thoroughly disappointed he had eaten some of it before I discovered it was uncooked. The server throughly apologized and they remade the order which in the end, we ended up taking home with us. They also didn't take the order off the check for us which normally that would happen. For such a classy restaurant, we would think they would know how to make waffles and for more top-notch service. I think next time we will just enjoy the nice views and choose to eat somewhere else when we are in the area.

    Cecil's had gotten my attention while I had been looking for places to dine in Rochester, due to…read morethe small but slowly growing number of excellent reviews on Yelp. On a Friday evening, when other dinner plans did not work out, I was able to get a reservation at Cecil's for just 2 hours from the time I made it. I looked forward to writing what would be their 4th review. It was a very enjoyable evening, though there were a few speed bumps. I think word has gotten out about this place, and that night, they were experiencing growing pains. It was pretty obvious they were short on wait staff for the primary dinner hours. That could have been for several reasons. Someone might not have come in, or they did not anticipate quite so many dinner customers. It happens. But what also did happen was the right thing - everyone in the restaurant worked together to get things done. We did experience some delays initially for initial service and drinks, and various staff members came by regularly to double-check our orders and to make sure everything was fine, but everything that needed to get done got done, without mistakes. Our food still came out quickly. As for the food and drink, it was definitely worth it. 2oz. whiskey pours are reasonably priced, so I got one. The other drink we ordered, a Negroni variant, was delicious. This same level of quality flavors continued through dinner, with the bourbon BBQ grilled wings appetizer, and our dinners, cider brined salmon and a risotto. My only complaint for the dinner was that the croutons in my Cecil Salad were rock hard. We passed on dessert, but the items on that dessert menu looked decadent. I think last night at the restaurant was a test for them, and they passed.

    We went to Cecil's on Park on a Saturday night with another couple and were seated immediately -- a…read moregreat start! The interior is dark and cozy, cute but not over the top, with fun canvas photos of celebrities on the walls. We were greeted right away by the sommelier, who walked us through the wine specials and selections on the menu -- such a nice touch! We ordered a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon, and they offered to decant it, which we really appreciated. For appetizers, we had the fried burrata, lamb lollipops, and the charred Caesar salad. I'm still dreaming about that Caesar -- the char on the lettuce adds this smoky, crisp crunch, and they nailed the balance of parmesan and dressing. I'd go back just for that salad! The burrata was tasty but basically a dressed-up mozzarella stick, and the lamb lollipops were perfectly cooked medium-rare, super tender, and full of flavor. Just a heads-up -- they're coated in a Korean BBQ sauce with Napa cabbage slaw, orange sesame vinaigrette, and scallions, so you have to be into that BBQ flavor profile (which we loved!). We also tried the three-cheese risotto as a side. It was good, though a bit more onion-forward than cheesy. For mains, we had the 5x5 burger, pork tournedos, and the short rib -- all were excellent and cooked perfectly. No complaints at all. The guys had Old Fashioneds and Manhattans, both well made. Overall, the food was fantastic, service attentive, and the vibe relaxed but refined. We'll definitely be back -- and I'm 100% ordering that charred Caesar again!
