Quality cocktails and a cool atmosphere. The downstairs bar tends to feel more relaxed and the upstairs bar is usually more active. The rotating $10 cocktail list has yet to disappoint me.
Bar has a 1920s feel to it. Specializes in cocktails. Best dressed staff in Rochester. No cover. No dress code. Serves food late. 21+ only. Bar staff is knowledgeable on their craft. Highly recommend- B ZeidsApril 14, 2017The Farrier's Charm or the Velveteen 😍👌🏻👌🏻🍸🥂 The Swans in Paradise is a fancy, gorgeous treat <3 (pictured) -- or if the Blue Blazer is a real show 👏🏻
Paul BetancourtJanuary 22, 2015Dedicated to the art and enjoyment of fine cocktails and whiskeys, this place is the best. Relaxed, good music, great bartenders and atmosphere!
Amanda ThauJune 25, 2017Beautiful and creative cocktails. One of the best cocktail bars in Rochester. Pictured: Ramos Gin Fizz
If you like St. Germain, try the Velveteen. It's delicious and having several could cause you to bust out with Lenny Kravitz's "Black Velveteen." You might even sound good singing it. Errrr....
Joshua HaftelJanuary 11, 2015Great vibe with decent cocktails. Really enjoy the cat's eye--fun to watch the preparation of and even more fun to drink.
Great prices on draft beer. You never go wrong with the garlic fries at the food truck in back.
Rebekah CornellMarch 1, 2016Great cocktails and an awesome atmosphere! The outside area is amazing as well!!
Amy LeighApril 14, 2016Great cocktails, lots of fun. Staff very friendly, knowledgeable, and great atmosphere.

Marc MayerAugust 9, 2015I hope you're in the mood for a good cocktail, because you're about to get one.
Micah BJanuary 5, 2013Try the evergreen...I don't like gin, but this was an awesome drink! Cool place too
Jake is the best bartender. Ask him about the yellow bicycle.
- Classy place with a variety of specialty drinks. I hope it succeeds.
