Mavericks is a nice cocktail lounge in the heart of downtown Hartford. It's unfortunate you almost…read morehave to be seeking it out to get there. It's located along highway 60 in the basement with another bar above it. There's currently no real signage on the outside and you have to hope you find the door. The low key visibility kind of gives off that "safe house" vibe. The people were friendly and the specialty drinks, a bit on the pricey side but were delightful with flavor. The price of the drink was justified in watching the mixologist take the time necessary to make each creation. Welcome to Hartford Mavericks. I hope the community stops by to give you a try.

I accompanied my finance to a yelp event at Solomon's. It was a surprisingly great find. This space…read moreis more of a bar/lounge atmosphere. It has lots of seating at the bar, on couches, and even an outdoor terrace overlooking the deer district. Great space to bring a big group. The best part was their happy hour which is from Tuesday to Friday from four to 5:30 PM with tapir, wine, and two handcrafted cocktails. Our bartender was helpful and shared insight about the creation of Solomon's. Definitely a fun place to check out with gorgeous views, new design interior, and will crafted drinks.

First time here- I honestly never pop in because I was uncertain based on the exterior. My friend…read morehowever really wanted to go do something and they were having a themed cocktail event that popped up so we decided why not and plus she had always wanted to try a dirty martini. It's a smaller space but a good number of high top and low seating. We really liked it and would totally return. The music was great and I feel like the drinks reasonably priced.

We visited on a Tuesday evening. The bar was full, but we were greeted with a friendly smile and…read moreserved quickly. There was no menu that I saw, but we ordered 2 old fashioned with bourbon, sweet. The inside looks recently renovated - industrial/metal concrete vibes?, There's pool table, a few TV screens, and high top tables with heavy, counter height bar stools tucked along the windows. It was dark when we visited, but I'd imagine there's a great view of the river during the day. Everything was clean, and I appreciated that the tables/floors weren't sticky or gross. The drinks were just right. We were on a tight schedule to get to another reservation, or I would have liked to hang out a little longer - the bartender was quick to close out or tab. Overall, cool vibe, good drink, fair price. The only downside was parking, but that's a given for anywhere downtown.

We went to Blu for afternoon tea and it was incredible. From the moment we walked in and saw the…read moreamazing view of the city, we were hooked. We were seated by the window. Our tea package was a gift and as first timers we weren't sure what to expect. We had the option of a mimosa or prosecco to start. While sipping on our prosecco, our tea butler stopped by to present the teas. She did a great job describing everything, it was hard to pick! I went with a tangerine ginger, and my sister went with the vanilla. We both took her recommendations for infusions. You receive a generous amount of tea. The presentation of snacks and treats is beautiful. We had the luxe menu and enjoyed everything. An extra bottle of prosecco had been tacked on and when we were ready, staff popped it open and kept it chilled next to our table. The pianist was lovely. Played great music and also did a round of happy birthday. We were celebrating my birthday so I was gifted a slice of carrot cake which was delicious. While this isn't something you would do all the time, we are already looking forward to coming back for another birthday celebration.

I've heard people rave about The Mason, and it took me far too long to finally come in here, and it…read morewas honestly entirely by accident. I was supposed to be meeting a group elsewhere nearby when our original place closed without warning. So we headed to The Mason and it was a delightful experience. It was very busy with one bartender, so it took awhile to get your drinks, but they were still well made and the bartender was very friendly. It's a small place so it can get loud when busy, but our group had a great time and we enjoyed the place. It is a dark, neighborhood type vibe. And the sealing the deal of the 5th star for this place is that they were dog friendly. My pup had a great time getting pets from customers. Great find!
