Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The beverage program leans on two long menus rather than a single signature list. Classic Cocktails and Martinis sections cover familiar ground at $8.00–$9.00, with a Margarita Flight letting you pick three flavors from six. Wine runs seven reds and eight whites by the glass at $10.00–$15.00, and eight beers on tap include Bale Breaker and Single Hill. Nonalcoholic options are limited to soda, juices, milk, and a non-alcoholic beer.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Margarita Flight at $16.00 to compare three of the six flavors, or order the Vesper Martini at $9.00 if you want a single martini. The Mojito and Moscow Mule, both $9.00, round out the classic side.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Anyone who wants a recognizable cocktail or a glass of wine alongside a meal, and beer drinkers looking for regional taps like Bale Breaker Top Cutter IPA or Single Hill Sightglass Hazy IPA.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Cocktails and martinis run $8.00–$9.00, the Margarita Flight $16.00, wine by the glass $10.00–$15.00, and draft beer $7.50–$8.00. Nonalcoholic drinks sit at $4.00–$4.25.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The Margarita Flight is the clearest point of difference: three pours chosen from Lime, Strawberry, Mango, Guava, Prickly Pear, and Corazon for $16.00. The beer list also keeps eight taps, several of them regional, alongside a separate packaged selection.
