How we score

The editorial take

The brunch cocktail list at Penton’s Bistro & The King Bleu Corner Bar is the main draw, with ten named drinks spanning sparkling, coffee, vodka, gin, whiskey, and rum bases. Prices sit between $4 and $13. Customers repeatedly praise the Bees Knees, Old Fashioned, Blackberry Sidecar, and Alabama Will. The bar also offers a 'Have a drink at the bar' section, and co-owner Jeremy Penton has referenced 'great drinks.' Nonalcoholic options are limited to iced tea.

What should I order?
Start with the Bees Knees or Blackberry Sidecar, both repeatedly mentioned by customers. If you want something lower-commitment, the $4 Mimosa or $5 Bellini covers the sparkling side, while the $13 Espresso Martini and $12 French 75 anchor the stronger end of the brunch list.
Who will enjoy this place?
Brunch drinkers who want a broad cocktail list with options from sparkling to coffee-based, and who appreciate a $4 entry point alongside $13 specialties. The bar section also suits anyone stopping in specifically for a drink.
When should I go?
Brunch is the obvious window for the full cocktail list, since the Drinks section is tied to the brunch menu.
What should I expect to spend?
Brunch cocktails run from $4 for a Mimosa to $13 for an Espresso Martini or Chocolate Martini. Bellini and Poinsetta are $5, Bloody Mary and Cucumber Fizz are $10, and Irish Coffee and French 75 are $12. Nonalcoholic iced tea is $3.
What makes the beverage program distinctive?
The brunch cocktail list covers ten named drinks across sparkling, coffee, vodka, gin, whiskey, and rum categories, with a $4–$13 range. Four drinks—Bees Knees, Old Fashioned, Blackberry Sidecar, and Alabama Will—draw repeated customer praise, and the venue includes a dedicated 'Have a drink at the bar' section.
