Prohibition was such a fun experience…read more This is a great bar to come to when you want something lively and memorable. The music sets the tone, the crowd is clearly there to have a good time, and the drinks are creative and whimsical. The décor is spot on, and the moody atmosphere really makes you feel like you have stepped back into the 1920s. Our server was attentive and friendly throughout the night. We ordered four drinks, and each one came out with its own playful presentation that matched the cocktail perfectly. We asked to substitute the alcohol in one drink, and it ended up being especially enjoyable and festive for the holiday season. One standout moment was when a drink arrived in a gas pump and the server actually squeezed the handle to pour it into my glass tableside. It was such a fun and unexpected touch. They also offer live music, though unfortunately we were not there on a night with a performance. That just gives me another reason to come back. Overall, this is absolutely worth checking out for the experience alone.

I will say the most interesting drink they had was the dill with popcorn. Note, you can ask for more popcorn! It is made fresh daily.
