The Warehouse District has a new upscale spot in town! Recently opening during NBA Allstar weekend…read morein CLE, it has already had the presence of many celebrities come through their doors. The setup has a wow factor as you enter the basement level of the building through a tunnel covered in plants and leading straight to your first photo opp! The circle with pink bench is a cute preview of what's inside. Once you check in with the hostess, enter through a door and welcome to the social club. Beautiful decor that mixes a level of sophistication with a little drama as you see the bright lights. Plenty of seating and even a private room that can be rented out. The drinks are phenomenal and the staff is friendly! The menu offers a mix of unique cocktails (and can be made as mocktail a too) and small bites. Upon recommendation, I tried the F.W. Marg drink. So good! The most unique aspect is the watermelon ice cube. As it melts the drink flavor changes. Creative & fun way to enjoy a cocktail. They open at 5pm, which would be a great spot for chill happy hour. Later in the evening, you'll experience more of a lounge/club vibe. Great edition to downtown CLE!

I'm so happy we did because Stella made sure we had a stellar time (she put the Stella in Stellar? Sorry, nerd status) and the food provided was super fresh and the staff was so attentive. We had a pretty large group all come in at once and they got us through quickly with our first round of drinks! The ambiance is intimate enough where you can step aside to a table for a nice convo or large enough to create a dancing space where we you're at... which was exactly what some of us did because the music was just too tempting. From a more organized event to a late night par-tay mentality, the subtle and eclectic vibes of Lost put you in the right head space. Highly recommend!

Fun atmosphere and a good find. My friend and I had a wonderful time here. The drinks were…read moredelicious! A bit pricey though, so be warned. My drink was almost $20. Also, the menu makes it sound like the drinks will be a little showy. For example, the drink I ordered said it would be poured out of a Bible. It was called "the blessing." And my friend's was supposed to be served in a piggy bank. And other drinks say they will be served in pineapples, have a fire element, etc. Which sounded super fun! However, it must have just been part of the speakeasy bit? Our drinks were normal cocktails served in normal cocktail glasses. A bit disappointing, so be warned if you are like us and were expecting some razzle dazzle!

I had a margarita and an espresso martini and both cocktails exceeded my expectations! The lime margarita was classic, slightly tart, and made me want another. The espresso martini was enjoyed by all - very smooth, full of flavor without making you feel full like some do because of too much cream, I assume. The space is cool, speak easy vibes, and the gentleman playing the piano was a nice tough with an ideal volume.

There was a live jazz pianist in every room. The ambiance was great. Keep in mind they don't have dinner food, just bar snacks, so don't come expecting a meal. The drinks were definitely pricey, especially for Cleveland (~$20 per drink, give or take), so I don't plan on coming frequently, but it's a fun spot for a night out.

Would not recommend!!!…read more Came for a night out from outta town. They charged $10 at the door. We walked in we're the only ones there. They had swings at the bar (which was nice). The bouncer proceeded to tell us we couldn't sit there and that we had to move to the room which looked like a warehouse that they added on and was freezing cold. We decided to get a drink. But that was kind of difficult. They didn't have more than 10 bottles to choose from. They were advertising Avion throughout the club. The bartender said they were still recovering from All Star weekend. And that's why they didn't have much to serve. But a few moments later I saw them bring out a bottle of Avion and serve it to a VIP table. Also be ready to pay $30+ for one single drink and $5.00 for a bottle of water. The Bartenders were also talking negatively about my group of friends and I. 3 steps away from us behind the bar. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL ESTABLISHMENT!

They had about 12 types of liquor, NO BEER, and a shot of crown (that we didn't want, but drank bc…read morethey had nothing else of interest) was $28. Plus there was a $10 cover, just for us to be the only ones inside. It was also freezing inside. Insane! The bartender was clearly annoyed because we kept asking what type of liquor they had (you know, since there was only 12 bottles). When they didn't think we were paying attention, the bartender told who we presumed was the owner that we were annoyed and he said "well tell them to go away". Then they had a nice chuckle. We just paid $90 for 3 shots plus a cover charge and you want us to go away? Ok, bye! Will NEVER go back.

Currently they have been having little…read moreevents called girl dinners that you can grab tickets to online, I've attended two so far and it's a really cute laid back night out with the girls. A drink sponsored by a liquor company is usually included for the event along with a buffet style finger foods. They also have different vendors there in all the vaults offering unique experiences like permanent jewelry, hair, tinsel, and feathers, coloring contest, and this time they had a vault set up with just dance. Every time I attend a girl dinner it just keeps getting better. The staff is always amazing and welcoming.

We were able to snag a couple of seats as 2 people were leaving. The place obviously lived up to its name. It's a vault, I get it... But what's cool about it was exploring all the extra rooms and booths. Certainly fun to get lost in it. I was also impressed by how festive it was. They were already decked out in Christmas decor, and the bartenders were in ugly Christmas sweaters. The cocktails were notably pricier than neighboring cocktail bars in the $16-$25 range. Their most expensive one was $35. I wanted to get The Safety Deposit, but they didn't have chartreuse at the time. I settled for the Post's Pom, which was nicely refreshing but overly sweet. My friend got the Cleveland Trust. It was tasty but also too sweet, and the charred dried orange killed the taste. My olfactory and taste senses were so confused. Can't say that The Vault was my favorite bar solely based on the quality of the cocktails, but can't beat the vibes.

Our biggest hesitation was…read moreneither of us had tried a hookah before, but we weren't given much of an option once we found out they were having an emo night. We arrived around 10pm and it was a nice-sized crowd for first timers. You could tell they had a bunch of regulars, which is comforting when trying a new business. Unfortunately, I don't recall the flavors we tried, but it came highly recommended. They told us to pick a seat and they'd bring everything out for us. They were also kind enough to show us how to put it together and use it without embarrassing us lol. We stayed for about 2 hours and there was a pretty decent crowd by the time we left. Honestly, if I didn't stay so far, we'd probably be here on a regular basis. This is place to take your friends if you're looking for a laid back night, while still looking for the "going out" experience.

Something very different from what we normally go to or go for. The tiki vibe is very well done and the drinks are equally thought out as well. Once you arrive, there's reserve seating but otherwise everything else is on your own. The staff is very friendly and the drinks are very tasty and entertaining. I already have plans for when friends/family visit from out of town and take them here. Such a fun and unique place! Go!
