The editorial take
Post Haste pours a farm-to-glass cocktail program built on Eastern U.S. Spirits, with sections like Covers, Remixes, and Experimental Pop. Signature drinks such as That's Fashion, Baby! And Farmer's Dirty Martini showcase local ingredients and creative riffs. The wine and beer lists stay regional, and a dedicated non-alcoholic menu rounds out the program. It's a confident, locally anchored cocktail bar.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Farmer's Dirty Martini for a savory twist, then That's Fashion, Baby! For a rye-forward classic riff. For something experimental, Satay Away's peanut butter bourbon and soy sauce is a bold choice. Pair with a local draft like Tonewood Freshies or a glass of Pray Tell orange wine.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Cocktail enthusiasts seeking inventive, locally sourced drinks will find plenty to explore. Fans of creative riffs on classics and those interested in regional spirits and wines will appreciate the menu's thoughtfulness. The non-alcoholic options also make it welcoming for designated drivers or those abstaining.
- When should I go?
- Evenings are likely best for the full cocktail experience, given the bar's moody atmosphere and energetic music. The menu's seasonal focus suggests visits throughout the year, though the bar's interior with salvaged boardwalk wood adds a cozy feel for cooler months.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Classic cocktails are $13, signature cocktails $14–$16, and non-alcoholic cocktails $12–$14. Beers range from $4–$10, wines from $11–$15 per glass, with a $50 sparkling bottle option. A round of cocktails for two will likely land around $30–$40.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- Post Haste's commitment to Eastern U.S. Sourcing is its defining trait, from Rittenhouse Rye and Seneca Drums Gin to Pennsylvania drafts and regional wines. The cocktail menu's playful sections—Covers, Remixes, Experimental Pop—signal a creative approach, with ingredients like cherry tomato brine and peanut butter bourbon pushing beyond the ordinary.
