This place is awesome! It's a cute gem on mass ave that has chill vibes with one of the best whiskey and bourbon selection I've seen! Their cocktails were phenomenal and customizable. We first had an old fashioned followed by a Manhattan. Both were spot on With some speakeasy vibes this is a great place for a good small group hang out or a date and I will definitely be coming back again

Checked out the new bar which was replacing an Indy icon. The space has undergone a complete transformation - I barely recognized the place. The bar is super classy without being pretentious. The mahogany bar is something to behold. The tunes are old-school blues. You could lose yourself in a bourbon here. If bourbon isn't your thing, there is plenty of craft beer local and non-local) to be found. I think this was a win-win for everyone involved. The previous tenant needed to upgrade to a bigger space, and now that they're in a sweet new location just up the road. I'll try the food next time. It's a little pricey (it's all a ala carte), but everything looked good. (This review is only for the ambiance/bar)

Liberty Street is my go-to if I want a quiet atmosphere to relax with a delicious beverage. If you enjoy whiskey, bourbon and handcrafted cocktails then this is the bar for you! The draft list isn't too shabby either. The bartenders are very knowledgeable and take the time to chat with those at the bar. Recently, I had a Cucumber Collins, which is a summer special, and let's just say I had to have two because it was so good. If you enjoy trivia, then make sure you stop by Liberty Street on Wednesday evenings at 8:00pm. There is a 2 drink minimum, but this is standard with most other bar trivia.

Stopped by here late one night with a group of friends to have a few drinks. The place has a pretty laid back atmosphere and the bartenders were awesome. All the ladies were enjoying some drink they made up for us and it was actually pretty good. I had never been to this bar before even though I know I've passed by dozens of times. Perfect place to meet up with friends over drinks where you can actually hear the person you're talking too. First time here , but definitely not the last.

I actually give this place 4.5 stars. We arrived at 10:30 on a Sunday (opening weekend). It wasn't busy and we were helped right away. Thomas, the bartender was extra friendly and chatted it up with us as we sipped our prohibition era cocktails. The vibe of this bar is classy, like a flapper girl speak easy. The music played is classical and inviting. We had a clover club and a cacao 72% cocktails. Both delicious. This bar sells true cocktails. Not a lot of sweet, flirty mixtures. Many of the drinks are heavy, bitter, strong or all of the above. I haven't tried the food yet since the kitchen closes at 9 on weekdays. The menu is small but offers a variety for both vegetarian and meat lovers. I will definitely be back. I'd love to hang at this place on a busy weekend night.

Beautiful bar

I just wasn't impressed. A few friends of mine and I decided to check out the new restaurant on Mass Ave. Sunday afternoon/ early evening and there were very few people. Maybe it's just because their new. We sat checked out the menu and decided to skip food. Nothing looked THAT good. At least not for the price. I will say though that what I saw brought out to other tables looked much better than expected. So, we settled on just doing drinks. I had a beer. They have a pretty good beer list. A friend of mine tried to get their signature drink but they were out of one of the ingredients. Overall the service was sloppy. The Bartending was slow given how few people were there. I'm sure I'll eventually go again once they work the kinks out but I'm in no rush.

Liberty Street is one of those places that didn't have an instant impact on me, but each time I go, I grow more fond of it. Mass Ave is full of blingy, modern, lit-up, maybe even gimmicky bars with two or three exceptions. Liberty Street is understated. They are the modest, strong silent type with the smoldering good looks, and they really have a lot to offer. The atmosphere is laid back and classic with low lighting and rich dark mahogany wood. They have an ample craft beer list along with craft cocktail mixology that rotates. I've had several house concoctions that I've liked very much, but my favorite so far has been the Red Lady, which is a tasty apple elixir garnished with a caramel apple wedge. The bartenders are friendly and skilled at serving up a quality drink that is worth the Mass Ave price tag. Liberty Street also offers up live music and the occasional trivia night for some entertainment. This is the place grown-ups go to have meaningful conversations over quality drinks.

One of the best speakeasies in Indianapolis! They recently completed a renovation, and the expanded…read morespace is a huge improvement. The lounge is much larger now, with additional seating and a cozy lounge area in the back featuring comfortable couches. It feels much more open while still keeping the intimate speakeasy atmosphere. This is one of my favorite places for craft cocktails because there's always something new to try. Their menu changes seasonally, so even if you've been before, you'll usually find new creations alongside their signature cocktails. The drinks are true works of art, both in flavor and presentation. On my most recent visit, I tried a cocktail off the Pride menu called the Stonewall, and it was absolutely delicious. It had a beautiful pink color, and I loved the glass it was served in. The presentation is always top notch. Service was good. The drink was also only $10, which is pretty cheap for the quality compared to other places. We didn't stay long this visit, but it's always one of my go to spots to relax, catch up with friends, and enjoy expertly crafted cocktails. An added bonus is that you can order food from Goodfellas Pizza and enjoy it while you're in the lounge, making it an even better experience.

This is a nod to speakeasies of the past. It's not as difficult to get in, though. No password…read morerequired. Just walk into the Goodfellas Pizza and go to the left. Or walk in through the patio doors on the outside to the left. Once inside you're greeted by dark wood and leather everywhere. And whiskey. Lots of whiskey. They have several whiskey flights available at different price points. Come on Fridays when all the whiskey flights are on sale.

We came in on a Friday night at 6:30 with no reservation, and had to wait ~5 minutes for a table of two. We were sat at a high top at the bar, which we appreciated. Our server greeted us quickly, and checked in a few times throughout the night. Service was average, nothing spectacular but nothing to complain about. I had a hurricane to start off. Packed full of the good stuff, and one was definitely enough for the night. Appropriate price for what you get. This drink is what brought my review from a 2 for the food to a 3 in total. We started off with pork Bao buns. The bun was spongy, but somewhat dry. The pork lacked any sort of flavor, and the sauce on it didn't do much for me. The next part of the meal was the most disappointing for me: the curry chicken wings. Let me tell you- I was excited for these. These lacked any sort of flavor at all, and the only thing saving it was the ranch. The wings had a good crisp, but the sauce was lacking taste. I had the Shoyu ramen for my main. It was a pretty average bowl of ramen, but for the price, I expected more. The pork in it was flavorful, but the chicken in it was odd in my opinion with an unexpected herby flavor. Overall, service was average (but we appreciated getting sat fast), drinks were strong (and saved the meal) and the food was average. Would go if invited by a friend, but probably would not return on my own.

From the moment I walked in, I was obsessed with the atmosphere and all the thoughtful details that make the space feel so unique. I love that it effortlessly transforms from a cozy coffee shop by day into a cocktail bar at night--the vibes are immaculate no matter when you visit. The staff was exceptional and so helpful in walking me through the menu. One of my favorite things to do is ask the baristas what they recommend, and they definitely didn't disappoint.

Some were quietly relaxing while others were catching up over drinks. The coffeehouse-meets-cocktail-bar aesthetic is well executed and gives the space a distinct personality. I ordered the nonalcoholic Basil Needs a Break, and it was excellent. If you like basil, this drink definitely delivers. It was bright, refreshing, and very basil-forward. The service was friendly and welcoming. My only complaint was the temperature inside. It was nearly 100 degrees outside, but the bar felt warm with very little air circulation. It was almost refreshing to step back into the muggy heat after leaving, which probably isn't the feeling you're hoping to give your guests. I'd definitely come back for the drinks and atmosphere, but I'd hope for a cooler temp next time.
