Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The beverage program leans on a weekday happy hour that changes the cocktail by the day: Seasonal Bee's Knees on Monday, Classic Margarita on Tuesday, Old Fashioned on Wednesday, Seasonal Mule on Thursday, each $5, with 30% off wine bottles alongside. A customer account singles out the Signature Old Fashioned as a standout worth its full price. Craft beer is part of the offering, and brunch brings a 32oz Strongmosa and Conner's Coffee Kickstart.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Signature Old Fashioned, the drink a customer called a standout and worth full price. If the weekday happy hour lines up, the day's $5 special is the other obvious move: Seasonal Bee's Knees Monday, Classic Margarita Tuesday, Old Fashioned Wednesday, Seasonal Mule Thursday.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Anyone building a downtown stop around a rotating weekday cocktail special, and drinkers who want a discounted bottle of wine with it. Brunch drinkers have a large-format mimosa and a coffee-based option to work with.
- When should I go?
- Weekday happy hour is when the rotating $5 cocktail and the 30% wine-bottle discount apply. Brunch is the window for the Strongmosa and Conner's Coffee Kickstart.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Weekday happy hour cocktails run $5 each, and wine bottles come down 30% during the same window. The Signature Old Fashioned is noted as worth its full price, so expect standard cocktail pricing outside happy hour.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- A different $5 cocktail for each of four weekdays, paired with 30% off wine bottles during happy hour, gives the program a clear weekday rhythm rather than a single fixed special.
