Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
Party Bar runs a beverage program that treats wine, spirits, cocktails, and zero-proof options with equal seriousness. The cocktail menu rotates between eight and nine named drinks built with house-made components like gochujang soda and oleo saccharum. The wine list moves from $12 cava by the glass to a $2,500 Musigny grand cru, with strong Burgundy, champagne, Oregon, and natural-wine representation. Spirits pours span allocated bourbons, mezcal, rum, and amari. Zero-proof drinkers get dedicated cocktail sections and a non-alcoholic sparkling rosé.
- What should I order?
- Start with the daily disco, a cucumbery gimlet with Tanqueray Ten, Dolin dry vermouth, cucumber simple syrup, lime, and a Pimm's No. 1 spritz. Reginald Parish is an Oregon orange wine at $15. Spirit drinkers can try the Banhez mezcal at $13 or Van Winkle Family Reserve 12 yr at $67.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Anyone building a beverage-focused visit around cocktails with detailed builds, a broad wine list, or a deep spirits selection. The zero-proof sections make it a practical stop for non-drinkers who want more than a default soda.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Cocktails run $13–$16, zero-proof cocktails $12–$13, wine by the glass $11–$15, and spirits pours $8–$69. Bottles range from $30 to $2,500, so the ceiling depends entirely on what you choose.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The program covers four categories at a depth that few venues manage: a rotating cocktail list with house-made components, a wine bottle list that spans natural skin-contact to grand cru Burgundy, a spirits list with allocated bourbons and a wide amari range, and a zero-proof section with dedicated cocktails and packaged options.
