Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
Voodoo Lounge pairs a broad cocktail menu—rye old fashioneds, a Sazerac, and a blueberry margarita—with 15 rotating taps and a compact wine list. Customers single out the lemon drop martini as a standout and call the drinks strong. Expect classics and fruity specialties rather than experimental mixology.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Old Fashioned, built with rye, Demerara syrup, angostura bitters, and orange peel. If you want something brighter, the lemon drop martini has drawn high praise from customers. For a house signature, the Voodoo Juice layers flavored rums with citrus and a dark rum float.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Cocktail drinkers who appreciate both classics like the Sazerac and sweeter specialties such as the Blueberry Margarita. The rotating tap list and projector also suit groups looking for a casual spot to watch a game.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The cocktail menu covers a wide arc, from a rye Old Fashioned to a rum-and-beer Captain's Keg, and the rotating taps keep the beer side in motion. The pool table, Golden Tee, and big screen projector give it a game-room character.
