The Bitter Nun was the first stop in a night out with some friends. We found a cozy spot nestled in the corner at the bar. It was still early, the night had just begun. So it was fairly empty.
You'll find it inside Ex Novo the stairs in the back. The vibe is not quite like the brewery scene downstairs. I really enjoyed the dark motif and dark black and gray marble bar countertop. There's hints of gold about with the lighting hardware.
The cocktails were unique and good. I would order the two I had again, The Bitter Nun Old Fashioned and The J Herman.
After a few libations and a couple shared appetizers were ready to make a move. By then the place was filled and much louder.
I'd like to return to try some other drinks and food. The Bitter Nun will make the rotation on bar spots in my book! read more
