Common Spirits is one of my favorite weekend of after-party hangouts. I love the cool atmosphere…read moreand the drinks. They are fab. All the drinks are handmade, everything from the mixers to some of the liquors are made in-house. Each drink has 2 ounces of liquor in it, yet you will only pay $6-12 for a custom drink. One of my favorites here is the Whisky Slushie, it's no longer on the menu but you can request one! There are drink specials each night as well. The owner, Jamie, can always be found behind the bar mixing and serving up drinks. This place gets PACKED on a weekend night after 9pm, usually it is standing room only at that point. Since the venue is small but the place is popular, go expecting to stand but with a good chance of snagging a chair or booth as people leave. There is not much room for large crowds. It's definitely an intimate, cozy setting with good tunes, the best mixed drinks in town, and fun people. Food! Yes, the do serve this too. They have a great bibimbap bowl and a few other selections. If you just want some snacks, I highly suggest their hummus and pita plate or their chips and dip. Homemade and delicious!

Ok- this bar is NOT for everyone. It is a very very old timey type bar. It is smoking (and they…read moreallow cigars too). Everyone knows one another. They are very welcoming to new faces. Nothing is on tap- even the soda comes out of a two liter and beers come from cans and bottles. There is no signature cocktail list. Thai is the place for a shot and a beer- or like me- Bacardi and coke. There is a REAL jukebox- not one of those virtual boxes. Good old school rock and roll. Now some of you will not like this place- but I enjoyed it completely - service was fast and efficient. Folks were friendly and the drinks were reasonably priced. So if you are looking for a bar- with an old school vibe- good drinks where you can enjoy a cigarette or cigar without someone judging you, and friendly employees and customers- that's what you'll find here.

I wouldn't say that anything was overly creative but sometimes you just need a solid cocktail in an elevated space. I'd rate it a 4/5.

We went for the Holiday Pop-Up and the vibes here are immaculate! We did go on a Friday night so it…read morewas busy, but honestly the service left a bit to be desired. I do understand that they serve specialty cocktails, so maybe that's why everything took so long and we were in a large group. However, when my drink was empty, the server took orders of the people sitting next to me at my table and then walked away without asking me if I wanted anything. I had to flag her down later for another drink, which I usually feel rude for doing. Overall, it just felt like the servers weren't very attentive, but the drinks were good and the people that had food liked it so I would come back!

In addition to a bar area and dining room inside, they have a beautiful patio in the warmer months. Service was spectacular: friendly and welcoming. We tried the grilled cheese sticks appetizer and honestly it wasn't as good as it sounded on the menu, but everything else was super delicious. Highly recommend the grilled lemon chicken - the green beans were cooked perfectly and the mashed had some small little lumps in them, just like mom made! Can't wait to try other menu items.
