You walk into a sports bar, let them know you have reservations for Vacancy, they take you downstairs to this quaint little lounge. We sat at the bar, the chairs we so comfy, and we reviewed the menu. I ordered a bananas foster martini, which tasted just like the dessert! Hubby ordered the 18 hour old fashioned. Since we had some time until our next reservation we ordered a second round here. This time I got the banana bread old fashioned and hubby got the tiramisu martini. Both drinks tasted like the dessert. They served really good drinks, the bartenders were super friendly and the presentation was great. We would stop back in.

I was confused why they wouldn't let walk ins come down to the bar as first come first serve because the entire bar was wide open even though we had to wait for a half hour for a table, but I guess that's just the way they do things. Cocktails were great! They put real care into making fabulous cocktails - definitely worth the prices too (very reasonable for a specialty cocktail). Beautiful decor and great service. We will be back!!

Perfect cocktails, perfect pizza. We stopped out on a Thursday night looking for a bite to eat and…read morea drink or two. Was fun figuring out how to get inside. It's a small place and we thought we'd have to wait but luckily a couple were leaving so we got seats at the bar. It would have been worth the wait. We picked a couple drinks off the menu and they were incredibly beautiful and tasted divine. The pizza we ordered had anchovies and pepperoni and I swear it's the best wood fired pizza I've ever had. I wanted another drink and asked the bartender to make me a rum drink of their choice. Within minutes some amazing concoction, it was smoking inside a glass dome of some sort. The garnish was a flamed cinnamon stick and orange rind that looked like a sword. It was incredible. The vibe is nice and patrons are friendly. It's not loud, so you can carry on a conversation, and the music was nice. There is a cute little back room with tables too for groups of 2-4 people. Parking is plentiful on the street and nearby parking lots. Within walking distance of other bars and restaurants. Up and coming area. I can't recommend the Oak & Olive enough and I can't wait to go back.

This is a great spot for a girls' night out! I went with my mom and sisters. Getting in can be…read moretough without a reservation unless you get lucky, so I highly recommend making one. There's a secret entrance since it's a speakeasy, which is fun. Someone is always there to help guide you if you can't figure it out, haha. The lighting is low, and there are a lot of comfy spots to sit, which makes the environment feel very calm and cozy. We ended up all ordering a variety of espresso martinis. Mine was a crème brûlée one, which was divine, but they all sounded delicious! We also ordered the fig & pear pizza to share. I wasn't sure what to expect, but the flavors worked really well together! I'm hoping I can come here with my husband soon.

I love speakeasies and this one was really cool! Don't want to give up all the secrets, but the entrance appears as a post office. We only got one drink each. I got The Alchemist's Secret Garden. I was hesitant because it was $20. But I thought yolo because the ingredients sounded too good; smoke infused gin, green chartreuse, ginger liqueur, lime honey & mint. It was incredible, and the presentation was gorgeous! The coolest drink presentation I've ever had. My friend got Love on the Rock. It was a vodka-based drink paired with watermelon pop rocks. Put a little bit of pop rocks in your mouth, then take a sip of the drink - it's a weird sensation but the flavors worked so well! The bartender that served us, and the host were both really nice. It's a super small space and they don't take reservations. Unfortunately if you have a big party, it's not likely you'll get in (we overheard that exact scenario while sitting at the bar). I believe they said they have around 20 seats. We loved the moody and intimate vibe though!

The cook was suppose to show up at 7p. We waited from 6:15 to 7:30 and no cook. We were hungry. So we cashed out and left. Server/bartender said she was new and kept apologizing. Not her fault. But on a Friday night. Shouldn't there be food before 7p? So not sure when the cook showed. Here is a major pet peeve of mine. I am a local Cleveland girl. The sports team I love are Browns, Cavs, Tribe. Period! If you are a Cleveland or Akron bar you should rep those teams. This place had Squeelers crap. Seriously! They had a helmet picture and a sticker of the logo in back of the bar. That sucks! AND here is the other thing . They also had Browns and Tribe stuff too. You cannot have it both ways. Root for Squeelers and the Browns. That crap is just plain wrong. Once I saw that I was ready to go. Good thing the cook never showed. I'm never going back. No neighborhood bar worth it's salt would rep the Squeelers in Ohio. And show the Browns and Tribe. If your a Squeelers backers bar, whatever but you don't have both teams. Done.
