    Delicious crispy artichoke hearts
    Brandy T.

    First time coming to this cute little establishment. Thane was our server. And he did his diligence after we showed up right after the kitchen closed. NOTE: Food stops at 9:45. He made good drink recommendations based on specifics. It was my birthday and the hug he gave me was AMAZING! The beautiful leather bound menu had 46 pages, yes I said 46, of mixed drinks, wine and spirits. We had two appetizers, which were absolutely delicious. The drinks were good. Note : the pollinator is really smokey There was a little bit of a wait to get in and 90 minute cap to stay. Super cute concept. They picked the perfect doorman Will definitely recommend to others.

    3.5/4 The decor is lovely. The staff were attentive and friendly. I didn't order any food however I hope in the future they will offer more food options that complement whiskey. The overall vibe of the place is nice because I love a good lounge but it was just too noisy for me that I really couldn't hear my friends too well. I would come back to give them another chance because their whiskey selection was amazing and the Paper Plane was delicious!

    Electric Nectar
    Sophia H.

    Came here with two friends yesterday. We arrived at 5pm, which is when they open. We had the choice of sitting at the bar or at a table. We opted for the table. The inside is dimly lit and decorated elegantly. I liked the inclusion of honeycombs in the lighting fixtures and even the ice in my drink. The darks and golds almost give Great Gatsby vibes. We all ordered a different cocktail from their signature menu. I got the Electric Nectar. The drink was a little tart and sour. The Buzzed & Bougie was very floral, and The Cusco Comb had a nice balance of flavors. Out of the 3, the Electric Nectar was probably the strongest in terms of tasting the alcohol. I don't particularly prefer sour drinks. If I were to re-order, I would get the Cusco Comb, as it fits my taste profile the most. We also ordered the Burrata to share. It came with 6 pieces of toast, which was perfect and divided evenly among the 3 of us. The burrata was delicious. The cherry gastrique added a nice touch of sweetness without being overly sweet. As time progressed, more and more people came in. By the time we left, the lounge was pretty filled.

    Nectar No.9

    Such a cute little place very intimate their drink menu rotates the code word for entry in shared via instagram they have small bites to order

    Nectar No.9

    Beautiful lounge and speakeasy! Password changes check social media we went on Instagram. Thankfully we went on a Saturday night no line at the time and was able to get right in. The door opens automatically and immediately a hostess directs you to a table or to the bar or cocktail standing table. We opted to be at the bar beautiful lit bar countertops. Enjoyed a great date night. Our bartender recommend the popular picks of Honeycomb after dark and nectar no.9. If you're looking for a dessert style cocktail or enjoy an espresso martini this is your drink made with cold brew. Ice cream was divined tasted like alcohol but no alcohol in the ice cream. Tasted the coffee flavor and it was so bold in flavor enjoyed it very much. The Nectar no.9 tasted like orange dreamcicle or the ice cream push pop. Tasted deliciously sweet if you like those flavors. Definitely come by to check out this place. Only one bathroom but it was beautiful.

    I'm giving this place a one star they have no ADA accommodations. The bar manager is very rude and disrespectful. I don't very disrespectful. I don't expect anybody to come to this place. Very rude it's not worth it at all

    So, this place is really cute! I'm not a super big fan of waiting in a long line to get in, which is partly why I didn't rate it 5 stars. My husband also didn't really love his drink. I tried it and it was not my favorite, either. He actually didnt even drink it all. My drink was good, but not great considering having to wait so long, etc. I'd probably come back if there wasn't a wait, but honestly there are so many great places in livermore with phenomenal craft cocktails that they would probably peak my interest more.

    Decently crowded on a Friday evening after dinner but we were able to get seated at a table by the time our drinks came. This place is attached to Sons of Liberty. Check out insta for the password. Quite loud inside with talking and loud music but still a fun and unique vibe for a cocktail bar in downtown. I got the Electric Nectar and my friend had the Buzzed and Bougie. Mine was quite sour in the beginning but the flavors mellowed out quickly and I got to see the cool design on their ice.

    This is hands down one of my favorite speakeasies! The ambiance is cozy, intimate, and perfect for a laid-back night out. The service was fantastic, and every drink we ordered was thoughtfully crafted. Pro tip: Follow their Instagram before you go! They post their updated schedule and the weekly secret password there since it changes regularly based on bookings. Here's what we tried: Cusco Comb (1000/10): Absolutely one of the best cocktails I've ever had. It was sweet, strong, and incredibly smooth without the alcohol being overpowering. I loved it so much that I immediately ordered a second one. I would honestly come back just for this drink alone. Honeycomb After Dark (9/10): Such a fun twist on an espresso martini! It reminded me of a Vietnamese coffee with a boozy kick. As the ice cream melted, the drink became even creamier and more delicious. Gin & Tonic (6/10): I'm not personally a gin and tonic fan, but my sister really enjoyed it. She thought the ratio of gin to tonic was spot on. Fries (6/10): Super crispy with a great texture, but they were a little too salty for my taste. The only downside is that there's only one bathroom, so keep that in mind if it's busy. If you're looking for a great spot to grab drinks in downtown, I highly recommend this speakeasy. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the cocktails are outstanding, and the service is consistently excellent. I'd probably skip the food next time and eat somewhere else beforehand, then come here to enjoy the amazing drinks.

    I enjoyed my first visit to Honeycomb Cocktail Lounge! We arrived a little after 8pm on Friday night and were able to be seated right away. When we left around 9:30pm there was a small line. The cocktails here are pricier but I would come back for special occasions or when we have visitors. They had signature drinks but also a limited specials menu. The specials included a drink with Thai flavors (galangal, coconut, kefir lime leaf, Thai chili, butterfly leaf tea, etc) and it was so good! I hope they keep this drink on the menu and I'm excited to see what new craft cocktails they come up with. Overall a fun experience to add to your night out in Downtown Livermore!

    Honeycomb After Dark
    Chuck H.

    Honeycomb was a great experience, really a lot of fun! I recommend the Nectar No. 9, The Royal Bloom (candy bag makes it fun), and the Honeycomb After Dark drinks.

    Smoky old-fashioned
    Slava C.

    I would say this place has some vibe and makes a strong first impression the moment you walk in. The mirrored entrance room is really unique, and once inside, the place feels stylish and cozy, though the lounge area does get a bit tight, especially on a busy Friday night. The bar itself is beautiful with the lit-up marble top that really stands out, and the spacious unisex bathroom was a nice surprise. The holiday atmosphere was a big plus. The giant, glowing Christmas tree in the middle of the lounge and Christmas carols playing in the background made the whole place feel warm and festive. Food-wise, the chicharrones were very well! seasoned and are a must-try, especially paired with the guac. The smoked old fashioned lived up to its name and was extremely smoky, which will appeal to anyone who enjoys bold, heavy smoke flavors. The only downside was the service. Even though it was busy, the attention lagged, and we ended up waiting over 20 minutes for our drinks, which took away from the experience. Oh, and make sure to validate the open hours and get that password on the Instagram before you get in. Overall, it's a stylish and festive spot for cocktails with a great atmosphere, but quicker service would make it an easy five stars.

    Entrance
    Jason S.

    We finally got over here to try this place out. Needless to say we were not disappointed. The service was great starting with the greeter at the entrance to the bartender and waiter. The waiters are also bartenders which is great because they can recommend drinks based on your preferences. The cocktails were on point as you would expect from this sort of establishment. The decor is pretty good too. It's quiet and they put effort into the artwork and the bar area. I highly recommend getting there close to opening if you go on a weekend otherwise you are in for a substantial wait, otherwise try a weekday. We had a really good time here and would come back again.

    Ask the Community - Honeycomb Cocktail Lounge

    Do I need to make reservations?

    I believe there are no reservations, it appears to be first come, first serve. You have to wait outside and give them the password to get in. Week days is not so bad but on the weekend, we waited 30 minutes in line. If you're in good company it… 

    If you are a patron of the Sons of Liberty does that automatically get you into Honeycomb?

    No, it's a separate entity.

    Cure What Ales You…read more This locally-owned restaurant is run by a Canadian expatriate couple, Tom and Teresa Lawrie, whose love of comfort foods and libations has borne two similarly named restaurants and a speakeasy, the Honeycomb Lounge, also in Livermore. This location is in one of my favorite quaint downtowns in the Bay Area, Livermore, and really delivers on the comfort food front with lots of creative riffs on American classics that will make your cardiologist shake their head in disappointment. The Good: * Happy Hour M-Fri 2:30 p.m. - 5 p.m. * Outdoor dog-friendly seating * Online reservations and waitlist via Toast (access through their website) * Seasonal menus so there is always something new to try. * Friendly service * Full bar with signature cocktails, as well as local beers and ciders on tap. * The brisket dinner wasn't quite what I was expecting, as it was more of a pot roast than a BBQ classic, but man, it was one of the best pot roasts I've ever had. The beef was smoky, succulent, and melted in your mouth. The concomitant jalapeño mashed potatoes were a fantastic accompaniment, as you got all the flavor of the jalapeño but just enough heat to make it an excellently balanced dish. * The BBQ beans were more of a bean soup, but delicious and smoky nonetheless. The Meh: * Limited menu for vegetarians and vegans The Ugly: * Street parking can be tough to come by, especially on weekends, but if you don't mind walking, there is a free city-run garage on Maple St. that has tons of spots and is shaded from those hot Livermore summers. Conclusion: Great place to get drunk, fat, and happy. Need I say more? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We parked in the free parking deck - less than 5 min walk away - Livermore valley center parking. The space is super cute inside, they have so many cat decorations. Drinks were amazing! Off the menu we tried the Tropic equinox and the tamarind temptress. They have a full bar so I also got an aperol spritz and my friend got a fruity sour tequila drink. Not sure what exactly it was, but the bartender was super talented and can make any drinks based on what you like!! For food, we got the pickled vegetables, whipped feta, arancini and heirloom tomato toast. Our favorite was the whipped feta, it comes with foccacia bread and it was sooooo good.

We were there at 5:45pm on a Saturday and only a couple tables were taken up so we got a spot no problem. I ordered the dirty Greek martini with no vermouth, which was basically a dirty vodka martini with feta brine and olive oil. It was smooth and mellowed out with the savoriness of feta and olive oil. Savory girls, this one's for you! My friends both enjoyed their tamarind tequila cocktail and the non-alcoholic blackberry sage smash. We ordered the whipped feta which came topped with wine-soaked pluots, aleppo pepper, and fermented honey. This was absolutely to die for when scooped up with the fluffy, warm pita on the side. My friends and I have not been able to stop talking about this appetizer. It is what every bread and dip should strive to be - simple yet well-executed, with layers of contrasting flavors and textures. I can't wait to come back, our waitress was so friendly and fun, the food and drink menus have much to be explored, and the ambiance is intimate yet relaxed. What a great spot in downtown Livermore!

    Came to The Hangar for an early Mother's Day dinner with the family (we celebrate Saturday instead…read moreof Sunday) and this was hands down one of the WORST restaurant experiences we've ever had. First off, this is NOT on the staff working. We genuinely felt bad for them. Management thought it was a good idea to schedule ONE bartender and ONE server on a packed Saturday night. The entire place was chaotic, customers were visibly irritated, TVs throughout the restaurant stopped working, and the poor employees were drowning trying to keep up. The stress was palpable that made the experience stressful and not enjoyable. Absolute management failure. At one point I used their self-pour beer wall and poured myself half a Modelo only for it to come out warm I was able to find another beer that was actually cold... but still charged for the warm one. The food was somehow even worse. We ordered the barbacoa nachos, wedge salad, and a kids burger with fries. The kids burger was the only edible thing. The wedge salad was drowning in ranch like someone emptied the whole bottle on it. Tomatoes tasted old and gross. Then came the nachos... tiny portion, bland chips, barely any cheese, no mango salsa like the menu claimed, and the "barbacoa" -- if you could even call it that -- was tough, fatty, and completely inedible. $74 later for one appetizer, one salad, one kids meal, and 1 1/2 beers. We only tipped because we felt bad for the server. We will NEVER be back. Thanks for ruining our Mother's Day dinner.

Yes, I got here on a Saturday with no reservations. I definitely understood having to wait under those circumstances and I was okay with that. I was told it would be 20 minutes.

Another group with 4 people walked in about 15 min later after us with no reservations but they were seated almost immediately. The hostess did not acknowledge us nor said anything. Awhile after that I counted 3 different groups leaving - a tota of 8 people. We waited patiently and kept waiting thinking we would be seated. 20 minutes slowly pass by, then another 5, then another 5.. I looked over and saw two tables completely empty. I was literally outside the door after about 45inutes and my phone buzzed. Come to find out that they had 3 open tables available the entire time. The decor is tiki themed along with the drinks however the music playing in the background was jazz. Not sure how that fits the theme. Also, the drinks averaged about $20 and small bites and desserts ranged from $13-$20. I'm torn about wanting to return here.
