7 Best Cocktail Bars near Alabaster

“We had our daughter’s wedding reception here and it was great! It’s a brewery that specializes in Mead ( fermented honey to make alcohol) but they work with your party to provide any other drinks and catering you may need. But I have to say, the mead is delicious! The venue can seat around 100 counting the very cute outside seating area that has a fire pit and standing kerosene lamps. The inside floors are hardwood and the ceiling is dotted with decorative rustic chandeliers. They have a pool room and a cute Photo Booth which turned out to be a hit. They have a small stage for either DJ or band and enough room for dancing. This place has everything!“

“Delicious and authentic Mexican!! The steak tacos were fantastic! Loved the queso and refried beans and my husband’s special dinner was delicious and portions were very filling!The service was great. Our waitress was extremely kind and accommodating. Price was good for the area. Also topped it off with a traditional Mexican coke! Excellent!“

“This is my favorite restaurant. Visited last night for our anniversary, but have been many times. Service is always excellent, food is amazing, bartenders are on point. When we arrived there was a short wait for a table. So, we headed out to the patio, and grabbed a couple of cocktails from the outside window, a dirty mel'tini, and a brown butter old fashioned, amazing. And cocktails are even better when served by quite possibly the friendliest bartender around. Plenty of heaters, and tables available, it was a cold night. Nice string lights, a great place for pre-meal conversation. Once seated we started with a dozen raw oysters, 6 Bayou La Batre, 6 Murder Point. They were fresh, cold and delicious. Then we had our usuals, chicken francese, and beef carpaccio, both excellent, as always. Ended dinner with the vanilla creme brûlée. I almost forgot, the bread that comes to your table is so good, has just enough rosemary, it's warm, soft, and delectable. We will be back again, and probably very soon.“

“I just moved here and me and my wife wanted to try something new to us in the area and we came here. We were greeted quickly and seated right away. They took our drink order and brought us chips and salsa with the drinks. We ordered a cheese dip and it came out instantly. Placed our order, my wife got the pick 2, she chose the chicken quesadilla and a chile relleno, which came with rice and beans. I got the Quesabirria (birria quesadilla,) both entrees came out quickly and were very good. I would go back.“

“I had a birthday dinner there and the vibe was very inviting. This was me and my guests first time ever dining in this establishment. The customer service was excellent, the food was delicious, the drinks were top notch. If you're ever in Hoover, AL. You must check them out! Thank you for making my birthday a success! Kayla E. Thank you for your great customer service!“

“I was excited to try Slice after they won an award. We stopped for lunch on a lovely day and sat outside. It was confusing where we were supposed to go, since their name is on two buildings. The server was friendly and very busy, so we seated ourselves and she brought us menus after we had found the menu online.We ordered one basic salad, one margherita pie, and two slices - one pepperoni and one Old School (pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, and red onions).The salad was fantastic. 5/5, would go back just for the salad.The slices and pizza were OK- 3.5/5 for me. The sauce was very sweet on the margherita and almost nonexistent on the pepperoni or Old School. They use cornmeal on the bottom of the crust, and there was a lot of cornmeal. Given how incredibly thin yet soft the crust was, the amount of cornmeal was detracting to me, both in flavor and texture.I would make a special trip for the salad but not for the pizza.“

“The food, service, and drinks here were amazing. Our server Amy was very outgoing and an excellent waitress. Everyone that we interacted with was pleasant and cheerful. The atmosphere is laid back and relaxed. The drinks from the bar were well done, delicious, and prompt. The food was very good as well. No to go boxes for us. We ate every bite!“
