The bartender - I wish I had gotten his name! - was fabulous. This is not a slingin' drinks scenario, this is finding the right cocktail for you so that you discover new flavors and enjoy something different. Shoutout to the excellent service from the Thursday night bartender! Finally, the mood gives me American-Gothic-meets-tartan-clan. It's classy and casual, a great date spot or 1:1 conversation with cozy nooks to curl up in to sip on a tasty beverage and snacks with a friend. I'll definitely be back.

The lounge seating setup was a little unconventional, but the staff quickly accommodated us when I mentioned a concern, which I really appreciated. The service was outstanding. I wish I could remember our server's name because he truly made the experience. He handled the entire lounge area by himself and never missed a beat -- personable, knowledgeable, attentive, and incredibly efficient. We ordered a few cocktails along with the hush puppies, Cajun calamari, and Brussels sprouts. The drinks were fantastic, and while the appetizers were good, they weren't quite memorable enough for us to reorder next time. That said, we're definitely planning to come back and explore more of the menu. Overall, I'd absolutely recommend checking out Black Rabbit for yourself. It's a great spot for either a romantic date night or a fun evening out with friends.

Reservations are needed but not mandatory. The band was pretty good and played for a few hours(with breaks) I thought my drink was quite strong and tasty. The food we ordered did not meet our expectations. I was excited to try the wings but they were overly seasoned with this bbq seasoning. I thought they were messy and I wish we could have the option to do plain but I didn't know what to expect. Also the spinach dip was not good, it was missing so much flavor! For $18, I expected it to knock my socks off but it just didn't. Overall we had a good time and enjoyed the live band and the service was great but next time I won't waste my time ordering food because it simply just isn't good for the price point!

All the windows are wonderful but also make it so so cold in there you need to dress warm or you won't last long. There is a fire place in the center but it doesn't emit any heat unless you touch it. This is a great place to work at, catch up with a friend, or digest a drink. I think the drink service starts at 3 but the room is available way before that. It's off the left of the lobby and will have people working in it during the day.

Leave your egos at the door and relish in the beautiful atmosphere all around you. As the door opens you're transformed into a time and place when your troubles and cares were next to none. Place your order at the bar and grab yourself a seat and the many nooks and crannies inside this lounge. The drinks are crafted by hand so they can take a little longer so if it's busy, be patient but be ready to get blasted to flavor town and enjoy the mini vacation for your tastebuds. Our only qualm is the menu is a little large but hey, they still crushed it.

I appreciated the amount of space, and there were even a few tables outside. Bar seating, table seating, couch seating... I think I peeped a small room in the back too... all the options! When I was there, it was mostly empty, but people did come in and out. It was easy to tell who the visitors and regulars were haha. I enjoyed just hanging out, people watching, and chatting with the friendly bartenders. They have cocktails and mocktails in abundance... there's literally something for everyone. And they even had these chocolate shot glasses. So cool! All in all, the place just seems like a perfect neighborhood bar. They don't have food, but there's plenty of options around to bring in there. Music was great too!

I was very satisfied with that one and would probably come back again next time we're in town!

This place was also down the block from our Airbnb so we could walk there. They had a lot of boozy coffee drinks and I really like that. I decided to try their Espresso Martini. This was our last bar stop prior to going out to dinner with friends. My drink had a house made espresso, Absolut vodka, Borghetti (coffee liqueur), a rich simple syrup, and coffee beans. My drink was rich and delicious and I absolutely loved their espresso. I do not recall what drinks my friends ordered. By the time we were leaving there was plenty of people in the place and appeared there was some sort of event gathering. We will have to come back here and with all the coffee drinks they had this may well be the place to start our day next time.
