Jean-Ann BotnerNovember 26, 2016Fantastic bartenders. Tell them what you're tastes are and they'll make it. Don't be afraid to start dialogue, a bar like this wants to make a drink for YOU.
KaitlinMay 20, 2016You've got to check this place out. They create each drink individually based on your preferences, and the vibe here is super hip.
Heath TerryAugust 15, 2014The have some great beers here. You shouldn't order any of them. Norma with bartender crafted cocktails like these.
Kt SegrestJanuary 29, 2023The Butter Nipple shots are on point!! Great environment - with plenty of semi-circle booths for seating.
Bridgette JApril 11, 2015Love the atmosphere, the bartenders are knowledgable and super friendly. Can't wait to go back.
Unique atmosphere. Periodic table of Birmingham behind the bar is made by a bartender. No cocktail menu; cater drinks by individual taste. Definitely will be coming back!
Grilled Cheese and Pigs in a Blanket are both awesome spins on old favorites. Cool place and great drinks too.
Aisha Holmes ThornJanuary 17, 2015Feizal and crew are amazing! Tell them what you like and they can create a cocktail that will knock your socks off!
Debora OlssonJune 3, 2015Any cocktail! Tell the bartender what you like and he/she will make something that suits your taste.
Adrienne McCollumAugust 24, 2014Nice!!! Love the environment. Bar tenders make the drinks unique to each person.
Caleigh MesserFebruary 27, 2015The atmosphere is so inviting. Love that it's a quaint space and doesn't seem so overrun with guppies.
Hakeem BilalJanuary 17, 2020The head bartender was too busy to focus and ended up making a poor batch of drinks all at once and didn’t taste or check their quality. Bar wasn’t busy but he was. Bar looks cool though 🤷🏼♂️
Kat SerafinJuly 11, 2015No cocktail menu, just tell the bartender what you usually like and let him create for you!
Craig ODecember 21, 2014The whole "name your liquor I'll make you a creative drink" is pretty much a lame marketing ploy. No creative drinks here nothing special move along.- As a road warrior, I feel confident saying this is one of the best cocktail bars in the country
We played cards against humanity here! They were awesome and brought our friend a birthday treat.
new place but it's already becoming really popular with the local downtown loft people
- Great atmosphere but slowest bartenders in the city!
- Tiki Wednesdays are the best way to beat the winter
