Loved this bar, and service was excellent! It's n a great location, right next to The Doubletree. Daryna was so helpful! I was not very familiar with the wine choices, and she helped me choose the one closest to my taste. It was delicious. Thanks so much, Daryna! We will definitely come back again! 💖

I cannot speak to the food, but I had drinks here two nights in a row and it was great. Daryna and Jamie took very good care of me. If you're looking for a shot, mixed drink, or a pint, stop by here for reasonable prices and friendly service.
