ORIGIN: Verdict opened in September 2024 as the rooftop bar…read moreat the Abner Hotel. The bar's name is in reference to the building's previous function as the county courthouse. LOCATION: The bar is accessible through the hotel's entrance behind West Street. Take the elevator to the third floor after walking along the paved path between West Street and the back entrance, or park and walk in the lot behind the hotel. ATMOSPHERE: The big draw is the rooftop location. There are numerous seating options to enjoy the sunset, surrounding landscape, and night sky during warm weather. The bar's design is elegant. BEVERAGES: No food is currently served at Verdict, but I did see some servers pass around some potato chips. The menu includes slight twists on popular cocktails, as well as dry cocktails. I tried the watermelon margarita ($16). Something about it did not seem as balanced as I had experienced elsewhere, but it was very attractive. TIPS: The bar is new, so it is likely that service and cocktails will steadily improve over time. The bar is not enclosed, so it is only open when weather permits each day between 3 and 10 PM. All are welcome to visit Verdict -- it is not just for hotel guests.

What a fun night! Came here with a couple of girlfriends. Started at the little lounge area, but…read moresoon took the party to the bar when we ran into another yelpie! Don't let the outside of this place fool you because looks are definitely deceiving. We were cautious coming to this place due to the appearance of the outside, but once we were in it was so much fun. Agus, aka rawbartender, was Ah-mazing and truly made the night fun. He was truly such a vibe!! I ordered the SpongeBob, which was Goslings rum, pineapple spice, ginger, lime, angostura bitters. Especially with the show that was put on, my drink tasted even better. It was a Smokey, yet smooth and refreshing drink! We also got the Snow White, on the sweeter side made with Pear vodka, orgeat, pear juice, lemon juice, cinnamon. And of course, we can't forget our schooling in tequila and Mezcal from Agus. He was very informative of what he was serving and we tried a few different shots. He gave us the rundown of how you're actually supposed to taste tequila. And I have to say I've never had an experience like that before. I wish the party didn't stop and I will definitely be coming back specifically for Agus and of course the drinks!

The bartender was fabulous . And made great drinks ! We just got drinks I got the peaches peaches which was pleasantly really good not to sweat or bitter , not to overpowering with peach flavour very well balanced . They also offer small bites / food.

Clubhouse Provisions has re-opened (March 20th) after a two-month winter break which in hindsight…read moreseems like a brilliant decision; no one was going out in the midst of our awful snowstorms. Chef Jon is back, and his opening menu for Litchfield Restaurant Week is an excellent one, fully supported by the kitchen which is blending in some newcomers with its experienced staff. We like the wait staff we encountered, too: Jonelle and Abby, super friendly as always, and quick to respond. The early menu is limited but tasty: the fried chicken breast sandwich is back and as yummy as could be hoped. We enjoyed the salmon poke bowl (a little more acidity needed) and the splendid calamari. The deserts we sampled, cheesecake and flourless chocolate cake, were simply delicious. We are so happy to welcome Clubhouse Provisions back and look forward to many more visits and an update on the full menu later this year.

Anyway, we enjoy the lively atmosphere and the simple yet appreciated beer/drink specials. We typically order food off the expansive George's food menu - this time a chicken parm sub. From my experiences, ervice from the wait staff is always excellent.

If you're a cocktail lover, this is absolutely your spot. Not only do they have an incredibly creative list of special cocktails, but they also can make the classics and you can also ask for any off menu specials too. I opted for the Red Right Hand, which was a rum based drink with almond, citrus and spice notes. It was incredible!! We sat at the bar, which had ample seating, and there were also tables and two lounge areas in the back. The bartenders were helpful and have no problem recommending drinks based on your likes. Definitely recommend The Archive for incredible drinks by talented bartenders!

Only note is that it did take some time to get our food and drinks but there was a lot of traction during our visit and what looked to be one person manning the register/making drinks and someone else in the back on the food. Some of us tried their Chai Latte-all agreed that it was quite milky and needed some sugar so there's that. I had the melon cucumber drink, it was good-I think would be lovely in summer weather but not as cucumbery as I would have hoped! Overall would recommend!
