Twin Peaks pairs a broad cocktail list with a signature 29° draft beer program served in frosted 22 oz. Mugs. The Old Fashioned and Classic Mule show solid technique, while the Speakeasy Cigar Lounge emphasizes rare bourbons and tequilas. House sparkling wine and sangrias cover wine drinkers, and nonalcoholic options include Passion Fruit Splash. Prices stay friendly, especially during happy hour.

- Start with the Old Fashioned ($8.49), built with Bulleit Rye or Old Forester, aromatic and orange bitters, and a Bordeaux cherry.
