An absolutely first-rate cocktail lounge. Beautiful atmosphere, wonderful service, and drinks both classic and inventive. Athens is lucky to have it. An incredible value for happy hour, too.

Great atmosphere and beautifully set up! Thanks, Brian and Thea, bartender, for taking care of us. Great place! Live music with Cam Norton. He will go far...very talented musician. The pimento cheese!!!!! Get one!

Great experience here after we left a previous restaurant. The decor was very plush and the ambiance was chill. Very clean and you could feel and see the attention to detail. I had the Bloody Mary with brennivin aquavit, which was a very interesting taste. I also had the Tinned Smoked Oysters which were a great after dinner snack. I plan to come back here when I’m in town with the wifee. Such a great finish to my visit to Athens!

Sensational, well thought drinks. Amazing vibe. One of the best bars I’ve been to in a long time.

A unique cocktail lounge experience, a surprise favorite for me. Not cheap should you want to stay around for a few hours, but so massively wonderfully worth it for a splurgy date, genius drinks, and great conversation... Each individual cocktail is well priced ($11-13 outside of happy hour), though that of course can add up. But you pay for a superb, metropolitan vibe, an otherworldly, fun menu - seriously, brilliant! - an excellent, diverse playlist on a pleasantly lower volume, talented and tactful bartenders, and several cozy seating options, inside or outside, in a calm part of town. Bonus for the occasional passing train which I'm tempted to say couldn't physically be any closer than it already is.

This is hands down one of the best places I’ve visited! The drinks are decently priced ($12 for an old fashioned), good tasting and the vibes are absolutely amazing! This is an upscale but not pretentious setting that is perfectly suited for mature students and established townies. It’s a small, intimate space so you can have a really good conversation. The place starts to get romantic when the sun sets and they light the candles at each table. Our server was incredibly attentive without being a bother! Someone I wish I could give a better rating this 5 stars. This place is awesome!

Super friendly and patient staff. The drinks have all been great and the bartenders knowledgeable on drinks off menu too. Been here twice and both have been so nice and relaxing. Absolutely somewhere that's very comfortable to sit and chat or read a book. Decent amount of space inside and outside so you don't feel crowded. Bonus is they allow well behaved pets.

checked this spot out the other night and it was very nice. would love to bring a book next time and cozy up in the corner with a glass of wine or a cocktail. the bartenders were incredibly kind and checked in on us a few times and offered beverage suggestions. i recommend stopping by for a cocktail.

This bar feels like a phenomenally curated experience; no detail was spared in designing our cocktails or atmosphere. Try the ‘A Good Man Is Hard To Find’ for this specialty glass.

An excellent place to get craft cocktails. And it’s nice to go to a bar that doesn’t have a lot of college kids going to it. Great vibes!
