Only to find the most vibe forward loungey club I'd experienced before. It was a late Saturday night and I walked in without any idea where I was going, but I was pleased and shocked! The vibe was there and the noise was loud but I was still able to talk. Lots of people chatting in groups and a dj! The drinks were delicious but also was awesome it was connected to grape and grain! So it was a double win! Check this place out for sure

I'll let the photos from other reviews do the talking, but if you enjoy a good backstory, ask about the history of the space. My mission for the night was simple: end the evening with a great gin cocktail. I started with the Donna Bella from the menu. It was well made, but I thought the bitters were a little too forward for my taste. Next, I asked for an off-menu modification: a Water Lily for Teresa, but made with Roku Gin. It was a strong contender--aromatic, balanced, and beautifully floral. If you're a fan of a French 75, this is a fun cocktail to explore. It's less citrus-forward and leans into a floral profile with a character that's hard to compare to anything else. For the final round, I went with bartender's choice. Mick asked a few questions about my flavor preferences and absolutely nailed it. They crafted a cocktail with Roku gin, snap pea cordial, aloe liqueur, egg white, lemon simple, mint, and citrus that was easily the highlight of the night. Fresh, layered, and memorable, it's a drink that deserves a permanent spot on the menu....Mission accomplished. If you're willing to wander beyond the barbershop business front and you consider yourself a spirit explorer, Volstead is well worth the visit. Go for a round...or two. If you're local, this could easily become your staple spot. For what it is, strong craft cocktail bar option. Bartenders choice is the way to go.

The house band is pretty good, a little bit on the young side, but they seem to get the job done. OK. After the house being played a set, they had a sit in sessions with various musicians, which is always nice. The atmosphere is subtle and quiet at least for a club. Location is great, and the staff seemed friendly. It's good to have a place in Jacksonville with an environment like this and a place where you can go and listen to jazz/blues. I wish there was more like this, maybe with a little bit of older, jazz, musicians and more people who appreciate jazz as it didn't seem like the audience was 100% jazz lovers, but that doesn't detract too much especially since there's not a lot of places in Jacksonville that do what they're doing here.

This was by far the best experience I've ever had at a hookah lounge, and that says a lot for someone who doesn't smoke! The food here caught me by surprise in the best way possible! Not only was I super satisfied with the selection on the menu, but everyone ordered something different and we basically got to see a showcase of menu items. The lowest scoring menu item to us was still a 5.5 which is solid. I would highly recommend coming here, especially with friends. They have good music playing and service for us was a 10 out of 10. I was helped by Brodie and Korey and when I tell you guys they took such good care of us I mean it! Brodie was our bartender, he took the time to perfect each drink & always made sure we were topped off with refills! Korey took care of absolutely everything we could have asked for! From napkins to photos she was willing to do it all! I can't wait to come back here!!! Especially for those egg rolls!!

Then as it started to get busier the service suffered. It seemed like she was the only server for the entire place. We had to ask for our coals to be changed 3x while watch her replace others who were there hours after us, she spilled a drink on one of us and attempted to charge us for a drink we did not order. Overall the vibes were cool but I don't think I would go back to spend my money there. Side note: the music and the Dj were great. Seems like a great place for late night

In the evening, the place is pretty bright and then once the night goes on you start to see a lot of those blue lights. I have had the food here and it is pretty decent. I would say that I feel like they could improve on quality and just making sure that the orders are correct. I've been to the bar a few times and it is pretty nice. They also have different celebrities to come out in like a club like environment. I would say most of the people that do come to elevation lounge are more of the 30+ community. I would say one of the major issues that elevation needs to fix is the parking lot it is completely dark due to them not having a light outside because in that parking lot/venue they are the only business that's open so everything else is just blacked out and it is kind of hard to navigate to your car after you exit the lounge

Also, if they have a shanty night in the future where they just played sea shanties and/or tavern music - I would absolutely throw down and attend while spending lots of money; just a suggestion. We will definitely be back.
