How we score

The editorial take

The bar program leans on a limited-time '$6 Spooky Sips' Halloween menu with two named cocktails, Tipsy Zombie and Dracula's Juice, both built on BACARDÍ rum. The promotion also includes mocktails and is dine-in only. Beyond that seasonal push, the bar lists cocktails and signature cocktails at happy hour, pours cold draft beer, and asks guests to call for current tap selections. A recent customer noted prompt Diet Coke refills. The most concrete ordering path is the Halloween list while it lasts.

What should I order?

Who will enjoy this place?
Anyone looking for a themed, low-cost cocktail or mocktail during the Halloween season, and beer drinkers who prefer to confirm the current draft lineup by phone before visiting.
