Stopped by here while hopping around in the area. Marissa was a great bartender. She gave me a full tour and was really welcoming. I came on a Wednesday so it was a bit slow but I'm looking forward to coming back on the weekend. read more

Pros: good music good atmosphere & ambiance service from the one of the bartenders was great Cons: gratuity is added to every check whether you are a single person dining or not & it's not disclosed with you in the beginning drinks & food are extremely highly priced & not worth it ordered "truffle" fries & instead what we got were air fried steak fries that tasted like great value brand & had absolutely no truffle or alt on it .. couldn't even eat it read more

Ambiance is clean and vibrant. DJ plays the best diverse tunes and takes requests from guest. Food is really REALLY good along with the drinks too. Drink selections from the menu can fit any taste bud. Restrooms are 1 stalled so there may be a line. There is enough space for large parties in the main forum but not so much in the speakeasy portion. If you don't want to be too socialable but on the more intimate side, the speakeasy side is for you! You don't hear the music as loud. read more

Met a couple of old Midtown friends here last weekend. My first long island ice tea was a bit weak in the speakeasy bar, but when I met my friends we had a table full of booze to make it up. We were there a couple of hours and enjoyed our time just drinking and chatting. read more

I have been here on two occasions, the food was okay, felt very limited. I went to the bar and the speakeasy. The service at the bar was great and the staff was friendly. It was a good quiet vibe at first but they turned the music up too loud for it to be a speakeasy. I would have liked the regular bar to have a different feel than the speakeasy but it didn't seem like it. read more

So this spot is clutch! I can't stress that enough. It's in the Chattahoochee food hall area so you may not come across it unless you're looking for it because there's so much other stuff over there. Parking is not free so you make sure you pay the park but depending on where you go in the area you can possibly get a validated. I don't think that this spot does the validation. I came on the back half of the evening in my parking was free and the structure across the lot from the establishment. I would definitely suggest making reservations. You can go to the forum or you can go to the speakeasy inside of the form which is called the midnight room. That's where I made reservations for online. If you go to the forum, It's a really dope spot with a couple of TVs and swim lounge areas. They have a full bar in bartenders that are really nice and super friendly. If you go to the midnight room, it's kind of a back room that you go to that has the same situation only it's more personal and more private. If you try to be a little more intimate then this is the spot for you. Again, they only have limited space so you want to make sure that you do would do a reservation online. There's a 15 minute grace period I believe but you can call them if you have any issues. Typically I do an old fashioned, if you read my reviews you already know that. But I did a Manhattan. I did a smoke Manhattan It was actually pretty good. Had really good presentation. They smoked it in a dome and brought it to the table and that was pretty cool. It was a pretty well constructed cocktail. If you look on a menu though the only difference between the Manhattan and the old-fashioned was the smoke so that was kind of weird but no matter! Also try the french fries. Well the super hungry so fries were enough, but I tried the garlic parm fries and these joints were fire! They were very crispy and well seasoned and they came with ranch and ketchup. Overall I think I would invest more time in this establishment period If you want to go ahead and get a little duck off and trying to find some place that's a little more quiet and intimate if you're trying to get some one-on-one time or a small group of friends, this is definitely a spot. Just to note, the midnight room will fill up so make sure you heed your reservation. But I did enjoy the vibe. They had music playing in the background and everything and it was actually old school '90s music so it really spoke to my soul. I can't stress enough just make sure that you are aware of the fact that 20% is added to your bill already. I kind of wonder how I got to about $80 with two drinks and some french fries, but they will add it to the bill but if you are aware of that then it's no problem. Would I go back? 100%! read more

Loved this place. Had a cute little girls night with my friend and had a very demure, very cute time here. It's a lovely venue and very sexy inside. Just plan for 20-40 bucks per item but I loved it. Worth it. And it has a lowkey vibe. If you come late night, prepare for a club vibe as well past 10 pm. But I love the elegance plus lounge vibe. The food was tasty and buttery, we ate so good. Love he charcuterie because it's multiple people friendly. The service was cool also, the girls are pretty and it's just a sexy place overall. I'll be back for sureeee read more

This is a 21 & up restaurant. It's located close to Chattahoochee Food Works, right next  door to Axe Throwing Atlanta. If you're coming on a weekend reservations are highly recommended, it's a small space. On this visit I only had cocktails in the Speakeasy. Your entire party has to be present. Tip: You must book the Speakeasy (The Midnight Room) under Experiences in Open Table if you want to visit the secret room. It is reservation only. You will have an hour and a half in The Midnight Room. FOOD IS NOT offered. There is no menu in the Speakeasy which also means you have no idea the price of your drink until you receive your check. The mixologist asks you what type of cocktail you're interested in then they create you a drink. Get creative and step out the box. It was pretty cool to see what he created for our table of 6, everyone's drink was very unique. I requested a bourbon spirit forward drink and said I like ginger, the mixologist made a Manhattan without the vermouth and added maraschino flavoring and cardamom. I enjoyed it! It was perfection and something I probably would never order. My Manhattan cocktail was $18 plus gratuity is added on to the bill, 20%.  Enjoyed the spot and would like to return to eat in the restaurant. read more

West was our server and he was the best! We cocktails were great! I loved how the bartender placed his twist on the selection. I never had a rum punch that was so good!

We had a party of 4 who came by on a Friday night without reservations and was seated promptly. The space is gorgeous and the chairs were comfortable, a big plus. Our server was awesome and gave good explanations for the drinks. We had dinner earlier so we only wanted small plates since we came to drink. Everyone enjoyed their drinks, from the classic drinks to their signature cocktails. For food we had the bread and butter. The sweet butter was sooo good, I could eat that by itself. We also shared Brussels which were nicely crispy but could've used some salt. Overall, I'd actually give them a 31/2 rounded to 4 stars because the prices are a bit high for what you get. Brussels are a standard menu item, $17 is a bit pricey for what we got. There were other food items that interested us but again why so pricey? On top of that, there's an automatic 20% service charge (no matter your party size) which the server explained is split amongst everyone at the bar. He was great so we tipped additional. I wouldn't be in a rush to visit again but would go if someone else wanted to. read more

This is a cute cocktail bar that I have been waiting on to open and check out. The space is smaller than I envisioned but they did a good job with the seating area, décor, and the look of the bar. Sat at a table and ordered the Uisgea Beatha (which is Gaelic for "Water of Life") and the Jack Rose cocktails. The Uisgea Beatha was very well-balanced and not too sweet nor bitter. The Jack Rose was a bit too tart for me due to too much lime juice in it. I also ordered a glass of champagne and it was perfectly cold and bubbly. Ordered the meatballs and they were a little too dry but had great flavor and spice so I would order them again. The overhead music was a good mix of oldies, '90s, and '00s hits, as well as other genres. Overall a good vibe! read more

The ambiance is very cute and very instagramable. Low light settings, great artwork, and dj after 10 on the weekend. The oysters were really good, the baked wings were delicious honey lemon pepper ( the fries were not a fan favorite, they were very thick potato wedges that were dry), and the Ceasar salad was a nice size as well. However, the drinks were uber sweet from the old fashion to their "dank gimlet" and little to no alcohol taste, just sweet. The server offered suggestions and was able to check with the chef to have warm chicken on the salad instead of cold but towards the end, she seemed overwhelmed with her tables and forgot about us. I would come back for sure but maybe just order neat drinks instead of their cocktails. read more

We came here on a Saturday night at 7:30 pm and they were already out of bread, Brussels and few things other that we were planning on getting. So we just got overpriced side of fries for $12 and few drinks, which are also on a higher end, $18-$20 read more

We ordered one appetizer and were never asked if we wanted to order cocktails. We had to ask to order. After we received the drinks, we were ignored for 2 hours. Had to get up to ask for the bill in order to leave. All workers except the bartender was sitting on the corner couch. read more

Love love love this place. Alex is my favorite although both bartenders are amazing. Every drink is made specifically for you and your palate. Swanky, speakeasy vibes on . You have to have reservations so plan accordingly. read more

Forum Cocktail - Cocktail bar - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Very fancy bar located in the Chattahoochee Food works area. They pride the restaurant on their crafted drinks and the ambiance. There is an additional speakeasy in the back which requires a separate reservation. The drinks were good. Definitely ask the bartenders for recommendations if your unsure as they were knowledgeable of drink history and components. The space is very beautiful and classy in appearance. Cute for a date spot. They have a small food menu but I didn't not purchase a meal. The drinks are pricey and small but I wouldn't say unexpected for the area and times. Parking: there's a large pay lot. I think you get 2 hours free. read more

This was a very cool place. We did the speakeasy which requires a separate reservation from the restaurant portion.. it's timed seating I think like an hour and twenty minutes but it wasn't busy we stayed a little longer.. the bartender who was real cool, his name was Alex described it as a scratch bar they is no menu they just make you cocktails based on what you like. It was a great experience and I would def go back. Now parking sucks around this area so factor finding parking into your reservation time. After the speakeasy we were hungry and dined in the restaurant. We had some of everything. The food was very good. From the wings to the burger to the lobster frites. read more

Popped in on a Saturday night and was very pleased with the service and quality of everything we ordered. Since we didn't have a reservation we sat at the bar, which is gorgeous bar by the way.

Just terrible. Drinks are small and watered down. Dishonest owners are definitely putting water in the liquor. Avoid this place. Overpriced and underwhelming. Update: the crazy owner called me upset about my review, screaming and harassing me! GREAT customer service. Just a winner across the board read more

This was quite the disappointment. We were at first, the only individuals in the speakeasy. The bartender was nice , but not very professional . She kept smoking her vape , and having personal conversation with her friends I assume who were at the bar . She kept leaving to take a phone call from her " babe " . This was out first time there and not impressed. We were given FIJI water when we walked in as complimentary , but were charged for it . read more

The service was a bit slow but cant even take a star off because everyone was so amazing. Once being seated we were asked what type of drink we like since there is no menu! That is my kind of spot. Its dark and moody inside, the drinks are expensive but its nice to come once in a while! We ordered the okra and the sauce was just spicy enough but not too spicy. LOVED IT. Honestly the best okra ive had. Then got the bread and this honey butter. It was hard but melted on the bread. Honestly i ate a whole loaf of bread with that butter. It was amazing. The bill was high and you do get what you pay for! Would come back once in a while since it does add up so quickly. read more

This spot has THE best cocktails in Atlanta. It's a cocktail bar, and remember, you're coming for the cocktails. They aren't cheap, and you definitely get what you pay for- A true craft cocktail. For the people who complained about the price of the drinks, you're at a super trendy spot in West Midtown with handmade craft cocktails. I'm not sure why you would expect anything else? The speakeasy is a must, and make sure you make a reservation! The staff is excellent and helpful, and the entire place is STUNNING. Remember, you're coming here for the drinks, the ambience, and the people you're with. If you're coming here for just the food, you're not coming to the right spot. They have great snacks and light eats, but they are centered around their drinks and atmosphere. read more

Loved the whole atmosphere and aesthetic.. Drinks were amazing! 10/10. Definitely recommend for a first date.

The place is stunning and gorgeous. But unfortunately doesn't make up for the less than average drinks. We went to the speak easy here in the back, and it was pretty over rated. Our drinks were around $20 a person for nothing special. The bartender was super nice but his suggestions were not very good. Also the music was way to loud to be a speak easy. But it was still cool to got to even though I won't go back. read more

BEAUTIFUL restaurant and amazingly friendly staff! However every cocktail we had was watered down to the point of being flavorless. It was depressing - I think I just paid TWENTY DOLLARS for an old fashioned that was made two days ago? We ordered the pimento cheese as a bar snack, and it took about 30 minutes to arrive. Turned out it was a small scoop of runny pimento cheese with a few slices of bread for almost $20. I'm actually a little sad leaving after having paid for this. I'm not trying to be negative, I just want to warn people. read more

DJ only played good music in last half hour but in the last half hour you can't get a drink. Claudia was the only redeeming quality about this place. Drinks take at least 20 minutes to make and cost $500. They said we couldn't get a drink 10 minutes to close even though we had been there for an hour and a half. Also DJ cut off mid set because closing and didn't even play closing time. read more

We had a reservation and we were aware of the time given (1.5 hours) then 30 minutes in they came over and told us our time was up, we had to be like no we got here at this time and then finally they said "oh wrong table." We were charged weird charges to begin with ($4 espresso in an espresso martini) but we just said okay. But the cherry on top was that They charged extra on my card from what the receipt was. I called to get it figured out and they told me they would call me back after adjusting and they did not adjust or ever call me back. Really upsetting experience. Do not plan to go back. read more

I met up with friends and we like trying new places. When I first arrived I thought "what a beautiful place" nicely decorated and well lit even when the lights were dimmed a little later in the evening. It's just a very sexy bar. The menu offerings are good although we did not eat there- I'm gluten free and was able to identify at least 2 or 3 things that I could have. The drinks are interesting creative, they have very good selections for mixed cocktails and straight drinks. The noise level was moderate. We had Johnny as a server and he was very attentive and polite, he offered food and drink suggestions and I feel like he checked in appropriately. read more

Drinks: DIVINE! Vibe: spectacular! Chef's kiss on this one. They even have a 'hidden' speakeasy for a more sensual vibe. Maybe next time, with my man ;) I'll definitely be going back! read more

My wife really wanted to try this place, so made reservations for us to go over the weekend. Our first impression was very positive. Someone put lot of energy into giving this place a hip yet old-world kind of vibe. We really liked it. The server was friendly and attentive. Which is always nice. My impression is that this is primarily a cocktail place, which we, sort of, expected. What surprised us was the food. The menu is pretty limited and on the expensive side. We came for drinks an dinner but, after receiving our drinks, changed plans. We decided we would have a snack here and then go some place else for dinner. So, we ordered the charcuterie board, which was fine. It was $40. Which felt a little pricy. When it came it had enough for the 3 of us to snack on. Everything on it was fine, but nothing was noteworthy. If I have a suggestion for the owner: be a cocktail place with a limited but reasonably priced food menu. I don't think the location is going to support the food prices. When the check came, I looked over it more carefully because I had never been here before. There was a 20% "house charge" which I had not expected and didn't understand. I called over our server and he said this was added to pay the staff. As I understand it, he gets 1/4 of that number. Is this a tip? If so, then call it that. If not, then add it into the food pricing. He was a good server, so I added a tip...or, should I say additional tip? Not sure. But, we won't go back. We are at the works frequently and would really like to see a place like this flourish. But, by the end we felt like someone was more interested in getting as much from us as possible rather that ensuring a fair and transparent experience. read more

First time visiting after a concert on Sunday. The restaurant was nicely decorated. The problem is the service was unethical.. My date and I ordered 2 drinks from the server. An old fashioned with Woodford and my date couldn't decide and Jaylin, the server, suggested that would surprise her. The drinks were both subpar. And to top it off, the bill was 80 bucks with the gratuity . A complete scam. I will never return.. too many options in Atlanta. read more
