This place feels like someone's basement tiki lounge tried to go legit, but missed. The menu is limited and frankly a bit weird, but not in a good way. Our drinks sat on the bar melting for more than 5 minutes because the waitress did not pay attention that they were up even though the bartender called to her & she was sitting at the next table juicing limes. Not worth the trek nor the expense.

It is not what we expected, but the cocktails were good, used high quality rums, and sitting outside under huge umbrellas was nice. The bartender was knowledgeable and went to get fresh mint to garnish my cocktail when he was clearly unhappy with what was in the fridge. Recommend if you're relatively in the area, it's definitely off the beaten track but quick to get to.

Very cool speakeasy vibe in the Crossroads! If you're looking for a place with well drinks and…read morepitchers of beer, then this is *not* your place. No, Swordfish Tom's is only serving up handcrafted cocktails, and generally off of their particularly killer menu. Drinks are artisanal, they take a little extra time to prepare, and they are absolutely smashing! Owner Jill has all the talents with both mixology and design and the unique taste comes through each time. Hoist your drink and find a comfy seat, or maybe a dimly lit corner table just for two. Just know that it is CASH ONLY (and there is an ATM on site) and the drinks will run you upwards of $15 or so. Each one is very well worth it, and you're there for a specific ambience, so pony up and enjoy. If you don't know that the entrance is in the alley off of 19th, then you will miss it altogether. Great space, great atmosphere, and outstanding cocktails.

The bar is downstairs and a speakeasy feel, with the entrance being in an alley. It feels hidden! There are paintings of nautical creatures/ animals on the walls as you're entering. The space itself is smaller, and from what I've been told they do a great job on regulating crowd size with their wait area. They have very specific craft cocktails. While they didn't have a traditional dirty martini that I enjoy, the bartender recommended something and offered to remake it for me if I didn't enjoy it. It's a really unique space that anyone would enjoy- definitely check it out.

This is a pop-up bar in Powell Gardens' Festival of Lights…read more Bar is a bit of a stretch. This is a side room, just off of of the beginning of the Festival of Lights path, that has a small pond, some plants and some Christmas lights to add to the theme. A small banquet-style bar is set up on the side. Some tables and chairs are set off to the other side. The menu features blue island-inspired and darker Pain Killer rum-inspired premixed (pre-made?) drinks that are poured and served like a Slurpee at 7-Eleven. They. Are. Awesome. They come with a little kick, too. Just enough to take the edge off before and during the journey. If you're not into the festive pours, that's okay. Limited domestic beers and simple mixed drinks are also available. The drinks are sold at event prices. They're poured that way, too. It's an a-ok bar, but it's kind of fun, and 'Tis the season. I'm giving four stars. Happy Holidays and Bottoms Up.

I am not saying a blast because it's clean, full, and what you'd consider to generally be a good time. I say it was a blast because it was completely random, unexpected, full of character. The regulars who could have easily scoffed at us, gave us hugs on our way out. This is a locals bar, but, we were welcomed as soon as we entered and stayed for hours chatting and enjoying the tropical vibe of the place. They have karaoke nights and a big outdoor area in the back where it seems people gather during nicer weather days. I think there are live music events there, and all in all, I would highly recommend checking it out if you're ever in Belton randomly like we were. We didn't try the food but someone told us it's fairly decent.

Basically, a perfect little dive bar. They have beach decor throughout and even free popcorn. They do have a large patio area out front that has tables. The staff were super friendly and efficient. The cocktails are all on draft. Some come with toys, beads, and even lights. The Shark Attack has a shark filled with a shot of grenadine that you can pour into the blue concoction. Super fun. They also offer beer. A few craft but mostly domestics. The prices are also very good. $5 a cocktail. Def check them out if you're in LFK.
