Love the Kennedy Room!!! This is my new favorite bar in Dallas. At a hidden corner, you wouldn't know it's there unless ya knew it was there. Love the music and cocktails. Bartender was such a sweet girl. I'll be going back here every time I visit Dallas. She played a mix of old school 90s-early 00s hip hop & R&B. Than played a mix of house-rock music. There's a pool table& plenty of books to read if you're into that when drinking. read more

Kennedy Room - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Daisy has always been great, they always have a nice snack. It gives homey game night vibes. Would recommend for a night cap after a night out. Very quick and efficient with serving. read more

Great ambiance and room. Bartender cool bring it back in the new. Uptown hype. Nicest bar in uptown easy.

Thank you for your patience and kindness. My party behaved poorly and they handled it with class and kindness. I cannot support them enough

I'm so glad I stumbled across this neighborhood bar on accident as it truly was a pleasant, very chill place for drinks and desserts. Although it was pretty slow when I was there, the bartenders are truly what make this place so special. They are both so patient, and willing to make whatever you suggest. I like this place because it's different from the other bars in the area. The drinks are affordable and you don't have to fight with the crowd of people who visit bars based off of a "tiktok" review. I definitely recommend this place if you're looking to unwind after a hard day of work, or if you actually intend on having actual conversation that you can hear with your date! read more

Drinks and service are elite. Where I have a problem is the food. The food in my opinion is worse than a middle school cafeteria food. I ordered nachos and the nachos came back with cold cheese, bland meat, and stale chips. I am grateful that the bartender did not charge me for those or I would've give a 2 or 1 star review. The atmosphere is very peaceful and calming. Low music for people to hear each other. However, be aware it's not a big space area. read more

Five stars. Start or end your night here. Incredibly unique and eclectic vibe. Ambiance was 10/10 for a pre-dinner cocktail stop. Jay took care of us and schooled us on the history of the venue, and also gave us a ton of insight in the best places in the area. read more

Had an amazing time here! The environment was super friendly and clean Erica the bartender was nothing but kind and welcoming Will come here again read more

Kennedy Room - a bar with a lot of bottles of alcohol - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Went by for the first time since COVID and it's so sad! Assuming there was a major change in management, because this place is no longer the Kennedy room. Fair warning to locals. Mostly bottom shelf bar, no cocktail menu (or cocktails, they couldn't make an old fashioned), no pool table...expect strobe lights and club music. read more

Vibe is nothing like you would expect from a place called The Kennedy Room. Spanish music was playing and 2 staff members were eating at the bar top when I walked in around 7PM. Everyone was very friendly but this was not the classy whiskey/martini joint I expected to find from a bar in Uptown Dallas named after an old money man such as Kennedy. read more

We had desserts and drinks. Peach cobbler was really good and the tiramisu was a bit dry (more like a cake, missing some of the delicious layers that keep the cake moist and the coffee taste). Bathroom didn't work, it was very unpleasant and I believe it was a shared bathroom with the restaurant Old Warsaw. Our bartender was great and no wait on deserts. It was a nice little quickie after dinner. It was super chill vibe, small, and intimate, so not a hype loud bar (like me). read more

This is my favorite place to go. Lots of cool people. Good Drinks. Great Service. Plenty of pool competition. read more

Kennedy Room - Old fashioned - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

A very interesting place. Dallas is decidedly ( by me, arbitrarily) all about Kennedy. And this place is no exception. It's a very QUIRKY spot--a small, dark space ( with some possible outdoor space) with taxidermy, a chalkboard wall, books (?I presume about Kennedy), a lush old-timey looking bar and plush leather couches and antique upholstered high back chairs throughout. As far as the food and drink, they are not bad, with a daily (weekday) happy hour until 7:30 ( website says 6:30) with cheap wines, cocktail and beer deals. While there are no food deals, the food is very cheap ($7 burger anyone?) and my friend purchased the salmon dish which was surprisingly juicy with delicious mashed potatoes and great brussel sports. The drinks are not bad, including the house wine. Overall, a good time, with quaint, unique atmosphere, great for a quick meal or afterwork drink with friends. read more

Kennedy Room - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Went for a couple of drinks right when they opened and the bartender didn't know how to make to many drinks. Not sure if he isn't the regular bartender or this is more of a beer and shots type of bar. Overall he did try and the place was nice read more

Great spot, good service. Hidden gem in uptown, definitely worth going if you have never been. Ask for the Trinidad Trash can drink- sooo good read more

Kennedy Room - a bar with a large screen tv - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This was a terrific treat for first time Dallas visitors. We had a cocktail and ordered the steak nachos. The Nachos were incredible, totally different than anything we've ever had before. Best described as a kind of beef stroganoff preparation. They should charge more for this. 80s music brought us back in time ... when probably no one would have thought of that nacho recipe. Go to this place. read more

I really enjoyed my girls night here - the delicious food, great service, classy environment, were all top notch! The owner is so friendly and made my friends and I feel so welcome. Definitely worth checking out! read more

Charismatic. Toasty. Quaint. That describes the Kennedy Room. Although it's not large enough to be worthy of a presidential press conference, it screams 'Murica with its JFK themed splendor. Facility: As others have noted, the space is small so try not to bump into your fellow bar-mate's Jackie-O or John's John bevvie. Yes, they even coined JFK era evoking names for their signature cocktails. Speaking of coins - the bar top is covered in copper Lincoln heads (read: pennies) which helps their presidential theme. Near the fire-place was a wing-back chair with JFK biographical reading material. Nice touch! Photo-op not passed up! ;-) Offerings: The bartenders were patient as we all kept them busy with all the drink orders - signature and non-signature. One bartender allowed me to snap a photo of him at work - thanks! In addition to their signature cocktails, they offer a vast selection of liquor, some beer, and some wine. At the bar they had some legit potato chips in small bowls for snacking. Also, they have food earlier in the day but I can't speak to it. Parking: I got lucky and found what might have been the last parking spot available in their parking lot (I got there around 9pm). I'm not sure where to park if there is nothing available there since most of uptown is valet. Beware of areas in the parking garage you are not allowed to park in. I've only been once but absolutely loved the Kennedy Room and will return! read more
