Review methodology and evidence standards

The editorial take

The beverage program here leans on a rotating promotional cocktail list rather than a deep bar. Two named $6 Halloween drinks, Tipsy Zombie and Dracula's Juice, are built on Bacardí rum, and the happy hour page explicitly lists cocktails, signature cocktails, draft beer, and wine alongside appetizers and sports viewing. It is a useful, clearly priced set of choices for a casual meal or a game.

What should I order?
Start with the Tipsy Zombie or Dracula's Juice, both $6 during the Spooky Sips promotion and both referencing Bacardí rum.
Who will enjoy this place?
Groups who want a clearly priced cocktail or mocktail with a meal, and anyone pairing drinks with appetizers and a game on the screens.
What should I expect to spend?
The promoted Spooky Sips cocktails and mocktails are $6; the promotion is dine-in only and excludes tax and gratuity.
What makes the beverage program distinctive?
The Halloween promotion names its drinks and base spirits directly: Tipsy Zombie and Dracula's Juice both reference Bacardí rum, with Cuervo Tradicional 100% de Agave also cited in the promotional image.
