The editorial take
Smoke Public House runs its beverage program through a brunch lens. The cocktail side is the most built out: a Bloody Mary or Maria, a Bellini or Mimosa, unlimited mimosas priced per person, and sangria by the pitcher. Nonalcoholic options are equally straightforward, with tea or coffee, juices, milk or chocolate milk, and hot chocolate all on the same list. The bar also carries notable whiskeys and scotch, with Yamazaki cited by customers.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Bloody Mary or Maria at $10 or a Bellini or Mimosa at $8. Sangria comes by the pitcher for $20, and unlimited mimosas are $17 per person. For a nonalcoholic option, the $3 tea or coffee and $3 juices are listed alongside hot chocolate at $4.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Brunch groups looking for a defined cocktail list, including pitcher-format sangria and a per-person mimosa option, will find the most to work with. Anyone ordering nonalcoholic drinks gets a full parallel list rather than an afterthought.
