    Friendly bartenders, cool vibe, great drinks. Pretty much everything you'd look for in a bar.

    Closing out the night and where else The Old Bailey by the old J.R. Reynolds factory. Fantastic bar with a wide variety of spirits. Staff were eager to please and continually checked in on us after delivering our drinks. Indoor and outdoor seating and the weather was absolutely perfect for outdoor seating. The area clearly was revitalized and attractive to those looking for suburban upscale living. Winston Salem on a Thursday means restaurants closing around 9lm with bars/pubs close about 11pm.

    Love this bar. Great variety of liquors (including local) and a large cocktail menu. This feels like a "grown up bar" both in vibe and price - oh and they must know it bc the music sees VERY early 2000s every time I there. Highly recommend.

    The Bourbon selection!!!!

    We are back for after dinner drinks at Dram and Draught. This place never disappoints! This place has some very creative cocktails for all tastes. You can sit at the bar, at a table, or o some nice lounge chairs. Our server was very courteous and our drinks arrived quickly.

    A go-to bar is essential for the perfect date night! Starting your night with a drink and conversation in the perfect ambiance is important. Dram and Draught gives a calm and warm aesthetic giving speak easy vibes. It's so easy to have conversations even with people you don't know. They now have added waitresses to work the floor so that makes service faster.

    Love this place, also have some serious cocktails. If you're looking for proper cocktails this is your place. Stuff is always friendly, and knowledgeable. The atmosphere is very chill.

    I don't know where to begin! I stumbled upon this bar as I was exploring Winston and what a treat it turned out to be! Dre, the new GM, made me feel so welcome and taken care of! He really knows his stuff! We talked about some of my drink preferences and he made two of the best tasting drinks I've had in a while. He made a tequila and tonic as well as a gin and tonic. Sounds simple but there truly is an art to it and you can tell the use quality ingredients. The bar gives me very elegant vibes where I'd love to get cute and just hang out. He shared that their busy days are Friday and Saturday nights but they're looking to start events to give more daytime and weekday fun options.

    Stepped into Dram & Draught for the first time and I'm already planning my next visit. The ambience is everything I love in a bar--dim, cozy, and intimate. It's the perfect spot for a laid-back evening or date night. I went on a Thursday night and the service was genuinely impressive. The staff checked in multiple times throughout the night, always friendly and attentive without being overbearing. One of the coolest things? They let us have food delivered from next door at Cugino, which was such a nice touch and made the experience even better. Now for the drinks!! It was amazing to say the least. Thoughtfully crafted and seriously delicious. Whether you're a cocktail person or prefer something neat, this place delivers. Highly recommend. I'll definitely be back!

    Really great space and nice set up. I decided to venture out and try a mixed drink that sounded good. I wish I would have stuck with a straight whiskey as I didn't love the drink. Props to them for unique options. My banana runt didn't really taste banana runt. My wife did enjoy her drink. I noticed some great bourbon bottles like a Blantons and Heaven Hill 18 years. Drinks seemed to land around $15 each. The service was nice and fast.

    First time going here not for an event. The service was attentive. However, the attention definitely faded over time. We were not offered a second drink but may have stayed for another if so. Ended up going somewhere else as a result. The vibe is nice with maintaining some historical accuracy to the space that I did not notice during the event I attended.

    Chill spot, perfect for kicking back with friends or family. The decor's really cool, and the seating area is comfy and ideal for hanging out while sipping some awesome drinks. They've got loads of options on the menu, like the Honey Hum, which I was curious about but didn't try. My son went for the Lofty Velvet, and I had a taste--definitely something different! As for me, I kept it simple with a nice cold beer this time around. All in all, it's a great place to relax, especially if you're out late.

    I came here on Wednesday around 8:15 with my son to get a drink out. I have been wanting to try it for a while so when he suggested going out for drinks I was at the car before the word came out of his mouth. The location is great, except for parking, but you can find it either on the street or garages around. We walked into an empty place which kind of shocked me because the inside was really nice looking. From the look of the bottle above the very large bar, they would have everything you would want. The menu given to us by the bartender looked very interesting and I wanted to give myself a few moments to look over the choices so I ordered a Boilermaker at $6.00. Good cost and they used a decent bourbon. Next, I decided to step out a bit and got a Blackberry Smoke (Los Siete Mezcal, Montenegro, Ancho Reyes, Orgeat, Salted Blackberry Agave, Lime, Heat Tincture) per the menu. So I love smokey flavors and this was over the top delicious and complex. My son tried it and said he would definitely get that the next time he was here. Come in and enjoy, it was worth the wait to me.

    Stopped by for drinks with a friend while in town for the week. This is a really nice establishment located in the heart of downtown. Enjoyed the drinks and the space. Here are my takeaways: Environment Located in the heart of Innovation Quarter this space is huge. Great for large parties or if you just want to catch up with friends or a partner. It has a modern vibe, low lit casual and laid back quality to it. The space has an industrial feel to it - high ceilings, a section with a sofa and chairs in the back for a more lounge feel and a huge bar with plenty of seating. Service The bar staff was amazing and made sure we had everything we needed. They were knowledgeable of the drinks and the menu and made great suggestions. They were also very welcoming. Drinks There are so many options to choose from and explore it can be overwhelming and it's also great to come back often to try many of their selections. Very impressive. The drinks we had were great and well prepared. I would definitely come back to explore their menu and try some of their creative cocktails. Overall Wonderful space for large parties or if you just want to stop by for a good to great drink. Really great chill vibe which I love. Will definitely be back for more.

    Expensive. Small portions. Nothing good to say about that combo. Have a drink elsewhere.

    I would recommend spending a few extra dollars and going to a bar that takes customer safety more…read moreseriously. In my experience, this wasn't a place where I felt safe. My husband was assaulted inside the bar, and the people responsible left before police arrived. To make matters worse, we were told the cameras only livestream and do not record, which was incredibly frustrating because it meant there was no recorded footage available to help identify the people involved. Everyone deserves to enjoy a night out without worrying about their safety. Based on our experience, I would choose a bar with better security measures and recorded surveillance instead.

    We rented the upstairs space for a corporate event. We had an open bar, a large charcuterie board,…read moreand a full catered meal with burger sliders, roasted brussel sprouts, Mac-n-cheese, crab stuffed mushrooms, and desserts brought in by Cheesecakes by Alex. We had 35 guests. The room had just the right amount of seating for groups of people to visit with each other comfortably. The restroom was conveniently upstairs. We had two bartenders taking GREAT CARE of us the entire time! I really cannot say enough about how wonderful our experience was at Joyner's Bar! If we put on another social gathering, we will definitely rent their space and order their catering again. The open bar was a nice touch everyone appreciated! MOST SINCERELY!

A few people were playing card games at one table, others were hanging out near the pool table, and a handful were just vibing to the music at the bar. They have an extensive beer list and some fun New Orleans-style tropical cocktails. I was happy to see an Aperol Spritz on the menu--and it was made properly, so I ended up ordering a second one. It seemed like a few friends of the bartender came in and started picking the music, which shifted into a mix of dance tracks and rap. The vibe fizzled out a bit after that, so we decided to head out. Overall, it could be fun little spot, we will check back later. If you're in the area and miss Hoots Brewery, definitely check out Bar Nola. I can only imagine how great their Mardi Gras party must be or Super Bowl day. On the other end of the building, there's a huge open space with beautiful hardwood floors and a another bar. It looks like the kind of venue where you could easily host a party with a live band--maybe they even rent it out for weddings or holiday events, though I'm not sure if it's officially part of the bar. There's also a large outdoor area with a TV and an uncovered bar, but since it was cold last night, everyone stayed inside. It seems like you can take your drinks out into the alleyway between the two buildings. Definitely a beautiful area to be when the weather is nice.
