Hummingbird to Mars is one of those rare places that reminds you why small businesses matter…read more Tucked away like a true speakeasy, it has an atmosphere that immediately pulls you in: low light, intimate corners, and a sense that you've stepped into a place where craft still means something. The bartenders are the heart of the experience. They don't just pour drinks; they create them. There's real skill and artistry behind the bar, and the conversation is as good as the cocktails. You can tell they care about balance, technique, and presentation. The Walk in the Garden gin cocktail is the perfect example: bright, layered flavors, premium ingredients, and that lavender garnish that hits your nose before the first sip. The scent alone sets the stage for the drink. It's thoughtful, elegant, and exactly what a craft cocktail should be. The food holds its own right alongside the drinks. The skillet meatballs come out tender and full of flavor, the kind of dish that disappears faster than you expect. The potato skins are crisp, satisfying, and exactly what you want with a cocktail in hand. And the homemade Baileys cheesecake is the kind of dessert you plan to share but end up guarding with your fork. It's rich without being heavy, with that unmistakable homemade touch. One of the best parts of Hummingbird to Mars is the tapas-style menu. You can eat as much or as little as you want, a couple of small plates with drinks, or a full progression from appetizers to dessert. It gives you the freedom to shape the night however you want, without committing to oversized entrées or predictable bar food. And that's the bigger point: places like this don't happen by accident. They come from creativity, risk-taking, and a commitment to doing things well. If we don't support small businesses that put this level of care into their craft, we'll be left with nothing but the same chains serving the same menus everywhere you go. Hummingbird to Mars is the antidote to that; personal, inventive, and genuinely memorable. From the first sip to the last bite, it's a place that delivers an experience, not just a night out. It's worth supporting, worth returning to, and worth celebrating.

I've never been here before but I have been to Famous Tim's ( now called All American Sports Bar ) and they seem to follow the same model. Completely no frills. Seriously. The bar was wet from numerous drinks but there was not a napkin to be had in the place. If you wanted to wipe down your watery drink or your sticky hands best head to the restroom to fetch some TP YIKES! And like the other Famous bars most drinks are $3.00 (read weak pour) and there is no kitchen but you can bring your own food. That's kind of a plus and a minus in my book. It depends on my mood. The jukebox is on point which was a saving grace because when we first got there they were playing down and out blues that was really putting a hurting on my celebratory vibe. The pool tables were an awesome bonus even though I still suck. Last note, the crowd is mixed and by that I mean young and old, black, white, etc. fair ratio of men to women and mostly locals. With that said know this, don't be surprised by sudden outburst of unintelligible drunken gibberish, loud profanity and threats of violence. You are now on notice.

I got there around 12:30, and about half of the dozen or so bar seats were taken. There were several tables, but only 2 were occupied. I took a seat at the bar and ordered a Hazy Bones IPA. Pretty good. I also had an Octoberfest beer later on. I noticed 2 coolers full of craft beer selections, in both bottles and cans. The bartender was on the phone for a while with Directv because he was having issues with the Sunday Ticket. It never got resolved, but he said it should be fixed by the following week. They still showed 4 different games. The majority of the customers were Eagles fans, but the bartender was nice enough to put one of the many Tvs on the Pittsburgh/Buffalo game when I told him I'm a Steelers fan. I was grateful he was willing to do that. When my friends arrived, we grabbed a table and watched the game from there. It was a lively atmosphere with lots of fans cheering on their team. My friends complained that the restroom was cold, but I didn't notice. My only complaint is they don't serve food, however I saw a few people bring food they bought elsewhere inside. Kind of cool that they allow that. I saw a jukebox near the restrooms, but because everyone was there for football, no one was playing it. It was a fun afternoon, and despite the fact that some people were rooting for opposing teams, there were no incidents. I enjoyed my time there and if I'm ever back in Delaware, I'd like to return.

If there were a Nobel Prize for bartending, Julia would already have it sitting on her mantel,…read moreprobably next to her Employee of the Millennium award. From the moment we walked in, she had this magical sixth sense -- like some kind of customer service Jedi -- knowing exactly what we needed before we even opened our mouths. She didn't just bring us drinks. No. She delivered liquid happiness in a glass, with the kind of precision and flair that made me wonder if she had trained in a secret underground bartending dojo run by Gordon Ramsay and Mary Poppins. My pint arrived with the perfect golden glow, like it had been blessed by the pub gods themselves, and my friend's cocktail was so good we're half-convinced Julia squeezed fresh citrus with her bare hands while reciting incantations. But the drinks were only half of it -- Julia had the banter game of an Olympic champion. She juggled tables, remembered everyone's orders, and still had the time to roast my mate in the friendliest, funniest way possible. Honestly, she could quit bartending tomorrow and go on a world comedy tour, but selfishly, I hope she doesn't because then where would we get our serotonin on tap? By the end of the night, we weren't just customers -- we were part of Julia's pub family. Five stars isn't enough. If Yelp would let me, I'd give her a constellation. Julia, if you're reading this: thank you for your service, your humor, and your wizard-level ability to make a Tuesday night feel like New Year's Eve.
