This looks like a bookstore from outside. I love the vibe when you walk in. It actually feels like a speakeasy. You have to open a secret door when you walk inside the lighting the decor is all phenomenal. We did have to have a reservation as the place is completely booked on a Friday night, even the bar was too capacity. We were seated right away as we had reservations, the nice part about the reservations as well as you could text them to get those reservations. We had dinner prior to our reservations, so we didn't get a chance to try the food although the menu that was in a folded binder was lit when it opened a very cool little feature. The drink menu could've been a little bit more extensive for their specialty drinks, however, they had what seemed like hundreds of liquor options for you to make your own or to choose something on the rocks. Our server Nate was excellent, he suggested and recommended different drinks for us, he also brought over a little cheesecake because it was Amanda's birthday this week. Just an outstanding location vibe service experience. All of that. We would highly recommend it and if we're back in Binghamton, we would definitely go. If I lived in Binghamton. This is the place I would bring all of my guests to. Would we go back, absolutely, so much so that we are hoping or would love to see this in our hometown

It was wing night so naturally I ordered wings. The wings don't seem to be breaded so that's good for me. Some people like breaded they have boneless. The menu was affordably priced and the staff were busy but extremely helpful. and super friendly too . It's busy so, if you're planning on calling to try and do a pick up order or make a reservation ? You might be better off just showing up and getting the vibe . They still have Sam Adams cold snap on draft and that's a seasonal beer that's hard to find right now, so I was happy to find it. Heads up, go get it while it's there because they'll be changing out the seasonal brew soon.

This restaurant is in an old building reconfigured into a bar and grill. The menu was actually quite extensive. We ordered several appetizers to go along with our drinks, mostly beer. They were very good even though small portions. Next it was time to order our dinners. Most had actual burgers, but I ordered the ahi tuna. This came on a roll with an Asian slaw. It was very good. Service was good. We were fairly early, but the place was filling up when we left. Our grandson picked this place. As a college senior I can see why. Inauspicious and relatively inexpensive. A perfect place for a college kid to eat and drink.

Never got to try the food because we waited 45 minutes after ordering with no food in sight. We asked the waitress and she told us it would be another 15-20 minutes, so over an hour total, for our food to arrive. All we were getting was burgers/sliders. As I looked around there was 10+ tables just like us in the same situation. One of the few tables that did get food immediately boxed it up and left, saying it was all cold already. My party had to pack up and leave without any food because we would've been late to the show. The one shining light was the waitress, she was fine. Will not be returning again.

Cannot wait to go back! We needed snacks and a drink and we needed a good drive on a Sunday! So…read moreglad we stopped here, will absolutely be a new place to get our favorites! The vibe of this place is exactly what's needed in America. I wish there were more places like the Union Hotel. It looks so fun and funky, everything is clean and I'm being serious, it's clean! Fried cheese curds and fried pickles...if that's all we ordered we were already hooked! Then our wings came!!! Pry the sauces out of my hands, I had it on my face, up my arms, the wings were exactly what you beg for anywhere else!! The sweetest and most beautiful bartender was an absolute angel getting our drinks and food! Extremely conscientious and attentive during busy moments!

We sat at a high top and ordered drinks... not the fastest service, but seemed to be just one bartender. Not our favorite cocktails as they were just a little off. Just one of the 4 would have gotten the same drink again. For food, seems like everyone else wanted their chicken sandwich!!! Nice sized breaded chicken on bun with delicious, crispy fries!!! I also loved my chicken and feta Greek type salad. Nice portion with perfectly cooked and cut chicken. The flavors were so good, I didn't even try their dressing which they serve on the side. We were a bit full for dessert, but also only option was their crepes... maybe next time. A good option if you have family members with food allergies, or are vegan/vegetarian.
