Cute little cocktail bar off of Mass St…read more I was recently in Lawrence and decided to finally stop by to try a cocktail. The interior is pretty small but they do have some seating outside-front and back. The service was good. I ordered the House Gimlet: cucumber infused gin, rosemary, orange blossom, and lime. This drink was so refreshing. It's a great drink for spring and summer. I highly recommend this drink! My boyfriend tried the Fugue State: Old overholt rye, bigallet China-china, tiki bitters, Lambrusco, and orange peel. He liked it and said it was like an old fashioned. It wasn't too strong and was really sweet. They had lots of other good sounding cocktails. I'll definitely stop by in the future.

It manages to combine…read morethe sophistication of an upscale cocktail bar with the cozy nature of a neighborhood watering hole. It's the type of place where you can get a phenomenal cocktail made by their innovative bar staff, or just have a pint of Coors Banquet on tap. The interior of The Continental Room has a sleek speakeasy atmosphere with windows looking down on Mass St. for great people watching. A huge plus is the large outdoor seating area located at the back of the bar, which is perfect during the late summer early autumn twilight hours.

Professional and helpful with menu. bar: It's a brewery and they have broad selection of house beer styles: lagers, wheat, porter, and IPAs. I drank their Skyz the Limit American IPA ($6.50 as of May 2026) and thought it was fine. food: wide ranging menu from flatbreads to plated entrees. There are lots of daily lunch, dinner, and happy hour specials. I had a classic burger with fries and it was OK ($17). My wife had a taco salad with shredded chicken and ground beef on the side and it was also OK ($12, since it was the daily special). details: Dramatic, soaring space with lots of signage. Plenty of surface parking right outside.

Mixed feelings on this one. The food and drinks were genuinely great -- the quesadilla was…read moreoutstanding, the beer selection was excellent, and the salad was hearty and fresh. Our waitress was fantastic too: attentive, friendly, on top of everything all night. Where it fell apart was the patio. We were dealing with flies the entire meal -- I mentioned it more than once, and the response was basically 'yeah, we should probably do something about that.' This isn't a cheap night out, and for those prices, that's not acceptable. It's a fixable problem and it wasn't being taken seriously. Food, drinks, and service inside were all a clear win. Management needs to get the patio pest situation under control -- it undercut what would've otherwise been a great night out.

I have some allergies and the staff was so great and accommodating. Disappointed in drinks - ordered the cold brew martini, and they were out. On a Friday evening?? Wild. Ordered a Chardonnay, and had significant amount of sediment at the bottom of the glass. They offered me a repour which I took them up on, but I am 99% certain she poured me a sauv blanc instead.

There's no blender on the 9th floor so don't ask for a blended drink. There are a few appetizers on the menu and they are quickly brought up from the bar in the lobby. We tried the pretzels and they were really good, hot and fresh. Relaxing to hang out and meet new people. There is a sail covering over part of the bar, but honestly, even though it was 100 degrees during the day, it was quite pleasant at 8 PM on the roof.

Hands down the coolest patio/bar/viewing spot in the entire city, hands down. Nothing close, and…read moregetting here you'll see the city and KU Campus as you've never seen it before. There's a small bar serving quality beers, wine and mixed drinks to boot, plenty of outdoor seating and on the weekends usually a band from 7-10 p.m. Typically a $5 cover for the latter, well worth it in my opinion. A large tarp covers a good part of top in case the sun is still out and you want in the shade. To get here, take the elevators around the back side of the front lobby to the top floor (8th... I think). From there it's one flight up and through a set of doors. Added bonus: because you're so high up, in the summer that means no biting insects you'll get if at ground level, and I've never been here when there wasn't a light breeze, so cooler. And the views, well. Where else can watch planes taking off from Lawrence's tiny airport, see the cars streaming along I-70, and the tops of downtown, the gazebo in South Park, look down into the football stadium and more? Nowhere. Simply worth coming as a destination in and of itself. No excuse needed. Great spot to simply sit and watch the sun go down and enjoy a beverage. Very highly recommended.
