After the big St. Patrick's Day Race, we stopped in after Yelp suggested this was both on our way home AND a better bet than the food trucks. We were surprised that parking was a breeze, with multiple entrances. The seating os designed to fit couples or larger groups comfortably, and you can tell the local love to sit around the long bar and chat. We loved our booth! The staff was quick, knew a lot about the different food options, and cocktail selection and beer selection was great. We chose a different cocktail from the list, and shared a bunch of appetizers. The sprouts were good, and the wings were tasty. I think the only thing that got a "nah" was the crab cake. I definitely have it on my list to go back for a meal, noting several dinner specials that met my creative palette.

What we did like was the old school music, vintage feel that took on the vibes of an antique shop (it was fun to look around), and the intimate setting. The cocktails were really good and creative with a menu that updates frequently and featured some classics as well. The cocktails were a bit pricey for what you got and for the area, the snack options were very limited and overpriced, and service was very slow despite few people being in the bar. We had to ask to be served and waited over 15 minutes for the check. We are glad we checked out Gigantic and would not recommend going out of your way for it as there are other great cocktail bars in neighboring towns.

Then closing came and they decided to let someone perform that already performed even though we had waited two hours and never got to perform once, and when I said that to her , her excuse was that it was a good song even though she literally said our song was a great song choice when I gave it to her! The place is small and I already struggle with the anxiety of being in a tight space with people so it was such a disappointment to patiently wait for nothing. Definitely won't be going back and don't think it's worth the trip there. Coming in or leaving you'd be bombarded with clouds of cigarette smoke because of the people that smoke right in the front, which is something I personally don't enjoy, and, besides the truck outside that always seems to be closed, there are no food options. A couple of alternatives are TD or Atlas bar in Chicopee.

Top-notch atmosphere that sets it aside from your visit to the local brewery. Great place for a date night or couples get- together. Even the bartenders had coordinated aprons that added a professional touch. The menu features all sorts of things that you might not imagine finding, never mind eating at a bar- like foie gras. Everything had a touch of adventure. There were different sliders, salads,and a whole page of "pickables" - both vegetarian and non- to munch on. The cocktails are truly the reason to come here. Yes, you are going to pay the premium price per drink ($15) but you are not getting house vodka with a splash of juice and lime. Each drink has top tier ingredients and some have bonus actions as well. They have the bourbon smoker box and some thing that makes an enormous bubble on your drink. (DO THIS!) We found that as first-timers, we were met with a calm, welcoming energy by our bartender, who answered politely answered our questions without making us feel like outsiders. I would add this on a monthly date night rotation if it wasn't quire so far away.
