    Night time view

    Stayed at the hotel and ended up at Top Note Rooftop Bar & Lounge. It is a great spot to grab a bite and a drink. There is quite a bit of construction around right now so the views aren't perfect but you still get a decent skyline moment. For a hotel rooftop the prices are surprisingly reasonable and the menu has enough variety that everyone can find something. Food was decent and just an easy enjoyable place to hang for a bit and I would definitely go back.

    Mood- Rooftop! Stopped here for a quick drink after the foot game & just wanted to recap with some vibes. Sadly they were closed prior to for an event but didn't stop the party. The views are really nice with about 3 different angles. The spinach dip was ok. Nothing special really. Glass of champagne is my go to when I want a sip & convo. Think doubling back here will be a monthly to do.

    Food, service, and especially ambiance. Rooftop views of sunset were stunning. Avi at the bar was amazing. I will not stay anywhere else.

We just finished up at the Catbird Seat and Ashley had called next door to see if they could seat us at the Patterson House. As it turns out they could, and they were ready for us when we made our way across the hall. They gave us a choice of where we'd like to sit, and there were two chairs at the end looking out of the windows at skyline of the city. What better way to end a lovely evening with a lovely lady, but with a lovely view and some fantastic drinks? Holland, like the country, greeted us and set us up for the evening. Holland brought great energy, and was super welcoming. They even offered us drinks on the house for the engagement. Totally unexpected, and that just meant we had to have more than one round to make sure that we could appropriately tip and show our appreciation for the amazing hospitality! The drinks were great. I tend to gravitate towards the less sweet. The Japanese Anchorage scratched that elitch very well being boozy forward, with hints of flavors. She had the Late Summer Margarita, refreshing and sweeter. We shared the Thai Tea Banana Colada. Definitely the sweeter side, but couldn't pass up the opportunity. Very good, a little sweeter and a little heavier than I'd normally prefer. It met both of our preferences right in the middle. Compromise, right? Great experience, and would absolutely come back when in town!

I sat at the bar and had one of their seasonal cocktails as well as a manhattan. The bartender, Skye, (who is amazing btw!) took great care of me and even offered me a taste of a spirit behind the bar for a recommended cocktail. The entire experience is worth the price point. I recommend taking a ride share and walking to your venue on a nice evening. I'm glad the Voorhees building is being restored. I'll be back to try their burger!

But it also has a robust bourbon menu that is ripe for tasting if you're into that sort of thing. It has what you might call "bar food." And yet, the food is a cut above. Cheeseburger is delicious, patty melt is excellent. French fries so thin and crispy even Ronnie McD is blushing. This most recent trip I dove in and had myself some lemon pepper wings -- excellent. An anomaly. A bar that goes for a rugged rough around the edges look and yet delivers such a wonderful experience. Grab yourself a couple of ponies on a hot day and sit back and smell the bourbon.

Music fairly loud, but not overbearing. I love the general vibe of the place. I saw someone else talking about validation for 2 hours for parking, which is good. You can also find free parking a few blocks away in Germantown. Sat at the bar and the bartenders are very attentive. No issues with the service. I had the chicken sandwich, as it was highly recommended. And this is a huge sandwich for the price. Very succulent bird. Another positive is the fact they have ponies for $2 (at least they were when we went months ago). THey also do a decent espresso martini. I will definitely return at some point.

Dodging yet another storm that rolled through when our group was here, we posted up in Nelson's Green Brier for an hour or so. I haven't struggled so much like I have here to pick a craft cocktail. There are so many good ones on the menu that fit any type of pallet, that it took me so long to decide. I got a modified old fashioned and then there was a martini-like drink that I tried. Both really packed a punch, luckily we were walking to our next destination. In the store they seemed to have a flash-sale going on for one of the bourbons. It was normally around $75 or something and I got it for $45. I am sure that's not normal but it really made the selection even better, because the wall of whiskey/bourbon is also really tough to choose what you want!

    We come in about twice a month and have tried just about everything on the left side of the menu!…read moreOn happy hour, it's all half price. We still order the beet and watermelon salad on every visit, yet we added the tuna crudo this time. I searched pictures on the web prior to ordering the tuna and noticed it came in slices and looked good. Unfortunately, it was nothing like that. The tuna was sliced into small chunks and tossed in the dressing with cucumbers and kumquats among other things. The dressing was overpowering, and I've decided I don't like the taste of kumquats! I hardly tasted the tuna. Bummer. We will be back, yet we will stick to the amazing dishes we know and love!

    Geist was amazing!…read more The atmosphere is truly one of the best in the city, especially when they have the place decorated for the holidays. On top of that, our server was hands down the best we've had in a long time. The drink menu was a little limited, but every cocktail we tried tasted really good. We started with the Caesar salad, and honestly that was the one miss of the night. It had a bit of a weird taste to it. Everything after that was fantastic though. I got the lamb chop and my fiancé got the filet, and both were cooked to perfection. For sides, the truffle fries and Brussels sprouts were standouts that I highly recommend. Will definitely be back!
