Came in at around 9pm on a Saturday and it was slow and quiet at first. By around 10/10:30 it became very lively! Their selection was impressive. The whiskey enthusiast I went with was thoroughly pleased. The staff were friendly and knowledgable. The vibe was that of a family business and the moody lighting combined with the r&b music and fireplace video looping you felt like you were in an auntie's house over the holidays. It was a lovely experience.

Lovely place to enjoy some soul vibes, ambiance is top tier. Black owned. Family feel. I've never had a bad experience and the bartenders are always friendly and accommodating.

My first time at whiskeys was amazing! Probably one of the best black owned businesses I've been to in the city! There's no food but I appreciated to personal mini charcuterie boards that was $14. The service was greattttt. Our server did shows when pouring drinks and was very attentive. The ambiance is grown and sexy, deff perfect for a date night, and the music was POPPING. I'm not sure how much each drink was but my total for the night with the board and 3 drinks was $96 so bring ya pocket book for sure.

What a gem to have stumbled upon while near the Fair Park area. Apparently I have been missing out....because all my friends knew about this place but me! It is a smaller space but perfect for a date or a low key night with friends, gave off speakeasy vibes. As a bourbon/whiskey girl, this is right up my alley. The service was great, the bartender made good drinks, and it was just an enjoyable place. I had the gingerbread old fashioned, which was delicious, I also tasted the toasted marshmallow one which was my favorite. My friends had the smoked old fashioned and said it was perfect! So no matter what you're looking for in a whiskey cocktail, you will find it here. Can't wait to add this to my list of bars to take friends who like bourbon/whiskey like myself.

I love whiskey, so by default I love this place. The esthetics was reminisent of a speakeasy. The dark decor with precision lighting, highlights the ethnic art and the vast array of whiskey on the shelves. The music was loud enough to enhance the mood along with the aromatic smell of incense. The space is cozy and intimate. Seating along the wall and at the bar was very limited, giving the space a luxurious and exculsive feel. We were seated at the bar, where we were immediately met with water and menus......If you know, you know.......The bartenders were very attentive and knowledgeable.........I had the Mitcher's flight......No food, just whiskey. We sipped and savored and enjoyed the moment. The perfect atmosphere for a drink, a first date or a night cap.

I like this spot a lot, it's very intimate, great playlist which set the vibes, and the service is amazing. I love a great craft cocktail with a story. I can't remember our server name but she has shoulder length locs, she has a great sense of humor and very much authentically herself. I had a drink with a long title. All I know it had Japanese whiskey and egg whites. And my friend had the 'Dallas' 75 which she loved.

Place is small but it's so cute. If you arrive too late, there will be a line to get in. My friends and I usually go around 5pm on Saturdays to make sure we can sit and relax. Whiskey heaven for sure. Nice service. Nice music on the speakers. Tasty drinks. I just wish they had some type of snack like popcorn or pretzels to accompany the the massive drink options.

We met at Whiskeys for our monthly couples date. The vibe of this place is very chill. Its dim lighting gives it a smooth, mellow, relaxing feel. It can also be labeled as romantic if that's what you're going for. The service was great and the staff was very knowledgeable. We met the owner who was very personable and engaging. We did a couple of flights and a couple of drinks. All were good. We read that this place was pricey, which I guess it can be. But I feel like it was in line with other bars we've been to. As a couple, we spent just under $200 pre-tip ($194 to be exact). The hubby was impressed so he left 28% for a tip. He /we enjoyed the pours, customer service,music, ambiance, and conversation. Definitely worth going back.

Wow! Just wow! I had my first visit to Whiskeys last night, and I am impressed! This place is such a vibe. This is a cocktail bar that specializes in fittingly whiskey and bourbon drinks. The bar staff is great and are all accommodating. You may have to wait about 10 minutes or so to get in but it's worth it. I hate lines. I'm allergic to lines, but my friend, the bouncer, and the couple in front of us in the line all told me that it's worth it! They were not wrong! The chocolate bourbontini is a great, creamy dessert drink, but the peace de resistance is the smoked old fashioned! It was amazing!!! Without a doubt, I'll be back. SOON!

Stumbled upon this place leaving a yelp elite event and idk how i haven't found this or heard of it before. It gave me whiskey speak easy vibes and they have some great cocktails available whether you're a whiskey/ bourbon connoisseur or not. The vibe is great for anyone of vibe whether on a date, solo or out with multiple friends. The bartenders were great and will make your cocktail how you like it , i.e if wanted one a little less sweet.

The flight

I highly recommend this business. It is unlike any other experience I have had at a bar. To start, let's get one thing clear: you come to whiskeys to drink whiskey. There isn't food outside of charcuterie boards, so eat before you come. When you get there, the bartenders are goddesses! They know everything that there is to know about whiskey. These alchemists are friendly and attentive. We were immediately served water and we were each able to find our perfect drinks. I had the Mitcher's flight, and my husband had the Old Fashioned. All of the drinks were special. The music only added to the unique and lovely ambience. This is the place you go to make your night a great night.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to this location. From the elegant decor, musical ambiance, the strictly enforced dress code, and simply just watching real mixologists work on their craft, this was definitely one of the better cocktail bar experiences I've had. They have a wide variety of creative whiskey inspired cocktails from bourbon margaritas to gingerbread old fashioned's with prices starting from $15 and up. I will say on popular nights like a Friday or Saturday you definitely want to get in a bit early as it isn't the largest location and gets packed fairly quick. The service was terrific, friendly and patient staff and I was given some great recommendations given that their whiskey options were so expansive. I highly recommend checking them out whenever you're in the area.

Open late, even during the week, which was wonderful…read more We were seated promptly, a party of 6. Very eclectic and aesthetic. Loved that the booths had walls, so it made the experience more private. Our table was a tad short, but we made it work. All the food was hot when served. Server was attentive. They have a shot roulette wheel. I believe there is garage parking as well.

Not great. Visited…read moreHarwood Arms for one of the FIFA game watch parties and yeah, don't bother. I don't think Harwood Arms was prepared for how many people were going to show up- it seemed completely disorganized, chaotic, and just ridiculous. We were sitting down at one of the tables outside in the alley area and the walkway was clear- at first. After the game had actually started, I guess they just let everyone in and the entire walkway was PACKED with people to the point that our once clear view of the TV, was gone in an instant. As the night progressed, obviously a girl has to pee, so as I was walking into the actual restaurant/ pub to use the bathroom and I guess the "bouncer" stuck his arm between me and the door and dismissively said I couldn't go in. Excuse me? After telling him I literally have a table outside, he yanks at his collar and speaks into his little walkie talkie asking if there's a table of 4 outside under my name. Sorry, I didn't know I was watching the Mexico game at the freakin White House surrounded by Secret Agents. Give me a break. So when he magically confirms I have a table (because I do), he lifts up his arm and gives me the ALL CLEAR! It's actually funny looking back at it. But give me a break. When going back outside to sit at my table, the same bouncer/ Secret Agent/ FBI dude gives attitude to my boyfriend and myself for the commotion caused earlier. The actual police officer next to him told us it's ok and to just have a good time. The only nice thing someone said to us and he doesn't even work at Harwood Arms lol. To management, if you do not want people "off the street" to go in and out of your pub or inside to use your bathrooms, then I don't know- maybe come up with a wristband method so your paying customers can smoothly go in and out to use your bathrooms? Just a thought. OR just don't be unwelcoming to people that are actively spending money at your pub. Harwood Arms was NOT prepared at all for the high velocity of people coming in to watch the FIFA games. Quite frankly, it was a MESS. I did visit Bar W a few days after that and had a MUCH BETTER experience-- go there instead.
