They didn't have any seltzers, the Lemon Drop Martini they claimed was so loved was not good. It was wing night and I wasn't impressed. We were told they were out of oysters which I told my friend they were known for. I ordered a side of onion straws to go with my wings. Not only were they not good but they cost $6. The whole experience was a disappointment.

The staff are evidently all friends who seemingly love being there and being with each other. The atmosphere is positive and fun while also being relaxed but nice enough for a date.

I love they support a different cause each month by using proceeds from a specific drink of the month. We went on Wednesday which happens to be whiskey Wednesday- lucky us! We tried the Southern Baptist, the Hightower, and an old fashioned. The Southern Baptist is fantastic if you like ginger, which I do!! The Hightower was light and refreshing with a touch of honey. The old fashioned was classic! This is a fun place to hang out!

As we stepped into the cocktail bar, we were greeted by friendly employee, who turned out to be the manager. Very cool and great conversationalist. He made a few valentine cocktail suggestions and we ended up with the sex appeal and cupids arrow. Both were delicious, and the shot was more the size of a drink, but still amazing. Loved the vibe, NOLA kind of decor... Those chandeliers were awesome! Already looking forward to going back!!

If you're looking for something without a big crowd, this seems like a good option. Although I don't know why there isn't a bigger crowd here! This place has a fun drink menu, average pricing for cocktails, comfortable seating, and a cool vibe. I had the French 75. Classic and delicious. They play good music and staff was kind.

Each table has its own "theme", there are games in the tables, interesting and eclectic chotchkies and other items abound! We sat at the bar the man behind there gave us great service, made great recommendations and was super friendly and attentive. There is no food, but the drinks are good and only $12 for a nice mixed cocktail. If you're in B'ham looking for cocktails, go have the experience at HOFO!!

This is the same person that helped me last time I was in town and the only other time I've been here. She is super helpful and talks you through all the options. Came in at happy hour which is $3 off all drinks from 4:00 to 8:00 Monday thru Friday. I got a great well-made old fashioned for $7.63! Old school prices for the old school ambiance. It's a bit of a hike getting up the stairs to the place but it is worth it as you feel transported back in time. Well decorated with great music. Great place to chill and relax from the summer heat. Will definitely return next time I'm in town.

The bartenders are super attentive and the drink variety is exceptional. One half is a quiet restaurant type area and the other half has pinball and video games.

It's a very intimate bar, galley style. The cocktails are great, they have all the basics and usually a smaller menu of fun options. My friend and I ordered a drink and sat down at one of the tables to take in the show!! They do the burlesque show on the last Friday of every month! It was so fun and the crowd made it feel like a safe space. I'm going to try to bring my mom and some of her friends for the next one! It's a great bar with comfortable seating, and on this night it wasn't so loud that my older, hearing impaired friends wouldn't enjoy it. Burlesque aside, this is a great bar for an intimate drink. It's relatively dark in here so much more of a romantic vibe.
