    Part of the Marriott property, The Ann Savannah, I was drawn to Little James because an influencer posted some attractive drinks on their social media. And I really hit the jackpot with this one. I lucked out because the bartender, Joshua, made me some of the best drinks I've ever had (and check my credentials on yelp!, I am a cocktail connoisseur). I started on the menu, with the midsummer marg, made with altos plata tequila, campari, chareau, honey, cucumber, and lime. Light, just the right balance between bitter and sweet. Refreshing. The whole menu is attractive. Several different spirits with creative ingredients you won't see on the average menu. Interesting flavor profiles. After my first drink however, I asked Joshua to start making me things he liked, or things he had been working on. I find I get the best experiences this way. He made me a couple different drinks, including this amazing grapefruit concoction that blew me away. You can see I've spent the last five years in New York at some of the best cocktail bars, and Joshua really surprised and delighted me. Literally some of the best drinks I've ever had. Joshua was warm and talented and I can't express how important it is to hold onto talent like that, Little James! I had already eaten dinner, but they have a nice little menu with sandwiches (like ham and brie, chicken pesto, pancetta, and more), cheese and charcuterie, flatbreads, salads, and snacks. The space is open, peaceful, wasn't crowded at all. Very minimalist, but stylish. Great place for conversation, meetings, getting work done, or just chilling out. Would be a nice first date option too! It's a little off the beaten path, about 6/10 of a mile off the riverfront, but worth it. As far as The Ann, it's set up like efficiency apartments with in unit washer and dryers, so might be great for longer stays or family stays!

    afé by day, cocktails by night!  Little James is the perfect blend of Southern hospitality and Mediterranean charm--a true social hub in the heart of Savannah. Whether you're stopping by for a morning coffee or winding down with a cocktail, this spot feels like home. I had the Paradise Punch and the Brie & Ham Sandwich for lunch--both were absolute perfection! The place has cozy vibes, plenty of seating, and is the perfect place to sit back, relax, and sip on something delicious. The bartenders were so great and the service was top notch!

There are several drink options with your choice of spirit. The mixologist was lovely! She was super attentive and patient (i knew what I wanted, but was indecisive with all the choices). The prices are normal for downtown Savannah, but love that there's the decor and fun drink options that make it feel worth it. Last call is earlier than some other places, so be mindful of that. Unsure what it will turn into at the end of July, but either way, give this spot a try!

    Last Call in the Library: Vinyl Room Pop-Up (Running until Nov. 16th)…read more Step into a world of mystery and mixology with Last Call in the Library, a limited-time pop-up at Vinyl Room at The Drayton Hotel. Inspired by Clue, this immersive cocktail experience combines playful themes with seriously good drinks. Perfect for a night of intrigue and indulgence. Drinks: The Colonel - Bold and spirit-forward, with just enough spice to keep you guessing. Of course it's served in a mustard jar and accompanied with some bar pretzels for snacking! The Conservatory - Bright, herbaceous, and garden-fresh in flavor. Mrs. White Meets Mr. Black - Smooth, dark, and balanced with a clever twist. This take on an espresso martini with mascarpone vanilla foam was on nearly every table! Professor Plum's Prescription - A rich, layered cocktail that feels like a remedy in a glass... or should I say, bottle! A burglary almost took place but I refrained from taking it home with me. No food menu to review here. This one's all about the cocktails and the ambiance. However, you can always grab a delicious bite to eat from St. Neo's Brasserie and enjoy their beautiful dinning space. From the themed décor to the playful drink names, Last Call in the Library is more than just a pop-up; it's an immersive mystery experience. Book The Clue Experience through EventBrite to try your hand at solving the case and find clues throughout the hotel property! Don't miss your chance to play along before the doors close on Nov. 16th.

Ambiance is prohibition bar vibes so a little more rustic and casual. I was a bit annoyed by the hostess. We had a reservation for our party of 6 and arrived about 15 minutes early. I asked if we could grab drinks at the bar and she kept coming up with excuses on why we couldn't stand or sit in certain areas. Finally, I just asked her to come up with a solution because we had 15 minutes to kill and they didn't have a waiting area. Funny enough, she decided then to get our table ready. It was just odd. Our server was from Ukraine so she was efficient and fast. Not super friendly or chatty with us which missed the mark on Southern hospitality and made our experience feel cold compared to our previous dinner experiences in town. I don't fault her for it though as she did her job. We ordered an excessive amount of starters and some of the entrees. The stand outs for me was the crispy Brussels sprouts, roasted bone marrow, steamed mussels, and grilled octopus. Skip any of the bread options. They weren't even toasted. For entrees, we also decided to share them. The pork chop and NY strip were stand outs. We ended up sending back the halibut. It tasted mealy and freeze burnt. Skip the crispy Japanese eggplant. I was expecting a grilled dish and it was actually fried with a thick batter. Too heavy for my liking. Overall, we enjoyed our meal but not somewhere I am dying to go back to.
