    Really cool spot. The retro theme is done really well. It feels nostalgic without trying too hard,…read moreand the atmosphere is just fun. Good music, good drinks, and plenty of little details that make the place stand out. Got the Fat Hooker and have no regrets. Smooth, refreshing, and strong enough that I started thinking I looked cooler than I actually do. Which, depending on the context, may or may not have been helped by the sunglasses indoors. Will definitely be back. Good place to grab a drink and hang out with friends.

    I ended up here for a Don't Tell Comedy show and had literally never heard of this place a day in…read moremy life. But walking in, I was pleasantly surprised. It's tucked away off Front Street, and you have to head down the steps to enter the bar. Then, for the comedy show, we went down another level into the basement. That underground setting was actually PERFECT for comedy -- intimate, different, and just a really cool atmosphere. But the bar itself is what caught my attention. If you grew up when VHS tapes, VCRs, tube TVs, video rental stores, rewinding tapes, Saturday morning cartoons, and picking out a movie on Friday night were part of life, this place will bring back some memories. VHS tapes are everywhere, with old-school TVs and little pieces of nostalgia that immediately take you back to a completely different time. There was something really cool about looking around and remembering when those things weren't "retro" decorations -- they were our everyday life. From standing in the video store forever trying to decide what movie you were taking home, to somebody forgetting to rewind the tape, recording shows off TV, movie nights with family and friends, and that giant stack of VHS tapes everybody seemed to have somewhere in the house -- this place brought a lot of that back. Very unique concept, and whoever designed the atmosphere understood the assignment. Now, I do want to mention one part of the experience because I believe reviews should be truthful, but also fair. There were several bartenders working upstairs. Most of the experience was fine, but one bartender in particular came across as unnecessarily standoffish and rude throughout the evening. I didn't catch her name, and I'm not interested in publicly attacking anyone personally. The part that bothered me most happened when I was ready to close out my tab. Another bartender had started helping me, but this particular bartender redirected her to customers on the other side of the bar and then left me standing there waiting several more minutes. Four minutes normally isn't the end of the world. But when you've already felt like someone has been dismissive toward you throughout the evening, those four minutes can feel like thirty. I was frustrated enough that I almost said something, but decided it wasn't worth allowing one interaction to ruin an otherwise enjoyable night. I paid my bill, still tipped 20%, and left. I mention this for management more than anything else: you have a really cool business here. Sometimes one employee's attitude can unintentionally become the customer's impression of the entire establishment. A little coaching on hospitality and how customers are spoken to could go a long way. Outside of that interaction, I genuinely enjoyed myself. Loved the concept. Loved the nostalgia. Loved the basement comedy experience. The Don't Tell Comedy show was great, and I would absolutely come back. Definitely a hidden little spot worth checking out -- especially if you're old enough to remember when "Be Kind, Rewind" actually meant something.

Well, coffee bar closes around 1PM, and they flip it to bar time until closing. We were warmly greeted by the bartender (not sure if part owner since there may be a few according to the menu's gratitudes). This bar is chic with a dark academia presence. I didn't take a lot of pics, since I was one of a few ppl there. However, they lean into the Lion theme beautifully. This place is manly, while have a soft essence... who doesn't love chandeliers. On to the offerings, it's a small menu, that appears to be seasonal... small menus means you're able to perfect things ;) My husband and I ordered a snack plate, with 'Spressy and Double Entendre on the side. Snack plate was served in gold dish: roasted salted cashews, toasted buffalo ranch corn, salted caramel chocolate covered popcorn. An elegant nod to beer nuts. I was a stereotypical millennial and ordered a 'Spressy: vanilla vodka, coffee, cacao, tonka; a little morning pick me up, but at night. Fantastic pull, smooth. My husband ordered Double Entendre: bourbon, pistachio, cacao; pistachio-y old fashioned. Bourbon is NOT my drink of choice, but I can tell you the prep showed great attention to detail; beautifully crafted clean, square shaved side, ice cube to perfectly chill the drink. As stated, this place is beautifully chic, with elevated drinks. The demasque wallpaper and gold accents are definitely my vibe. I look forward to returning and trying their coffee offerings.

We got to Donnericks around 11pm and it wasn't to busy. Tried to get a drink and the bartenders ignored us the entire time we were there. I couldn't even get the bar back to get their attention. After 35 minutes and no drink, we left. Will never go back. Bartenders only catered to people they knew.

    Horrible music, very strong drinks!…read more The place is exactly what you need to forget about the worries of the day. It is dark, has a pool table, patio, jukebox, the 'regulars' lined up along the massive bar, tvs everywhere and munchies (for when you know you will be feeling the after effects the next day). I met a friend here to catch up and dish about my latest heartbreak. The bartenders make some strong drinks, so it was easy to forget about the reason I met her there. The people watching consisted of a bunch of guys playing pool and a bunch of guys staring at us- the only 2 females in the place other than the bartenders. The guys were friendly and tried to make conversation. The interior of the place was really nice, booths lined the exterior walls and the bar was, as I said, huge. I probably would not feel comfortable going back alone, as I sort of felt like a slab of meat on the butcher's block. As I went there just to have a couple drinks and talk to my friend, it served it's purpose.
