The outdoor area is really nice and spacious, and the inside is just as good. The bathrooms are always clean, which matters more than people admit. The bar staff is amazing--friendly, attentive, and if you ask for a drink recommendation, they'll happily point you in the right direction. They have a full bar with a great variety of drinks including beers, wine, spritz, and cocktails. There's something for everyone. They also do a lot of events during the week--Monday trivia, Wednesday music trivia/bingo, and I believe Thursday is half-off wine. Fridays and Saturdays usually bring a DJ, so the energy definitely picks up on the weekends. Security shows up later in the evening (around 8-9pm), and they are genuinely very nice and professional, which makes the night feel safe and well-managed. Overall, it's a great experience every time. Just bring your ID, be safe, and have a good time.

They have a fantastic whisky selection and it's a nice place to sit. I will say that their other cocktails though outside of just the whisky leaves a bit to be desired. I don't remember my cocktail but I remember thinking it was just okay, but my fiancé was happy with his Eagle Rare 10 year. We would stop in again for drink when in that area, but nothing to make a special trip for in my opinion unless you are looking for a true whisky bar. It is great at what it is, but don't expect a great variety.
