We stopped in while wandering around the St. Johns Bizarre, and as such, due to the influx of the crowd watching the parade, they weren't offering full cocktails as they usually do here, instead opting for simple liquor & mixer only drinks, so I can't yet comment on the quality of their cocktails, but the bartender was so friendly, and the space so welcoming on a sunny spring day, that we vowed to return when things are a bit more normal, to scope out the vibe. The Garrison seems like it would be an required stop on any St. Johns pub crawl! We hope to find out sooner than later!
