Came in for the first time and I definitely will be back. I was served by Justin who was very knowledgeable in different drinks and whiskeys. I am not the most knowledgeable in this field so it was great to have Justin serve me as he was clearly a professional and knew his stuff. I just had a go-to old-fashioned. I am a pretty picky person but Justin made me one of the best old fashioned I have been served. If Justin is there I recommend him to be the one to serve you.

We loved this place but the last several times we went there they treated us terribly. We tipped over 30% both times but won't be back there or their sister bar. You can't treat your customers like that.

Our group had a private whiskey tasting with Katie and had a fantastic time. The tasting was perfectly set up and, even though we were all experienced whiskey drinkers, Katie was able to teach us all a few new things. Her knowledge of whiskey and the industry is impressive. If you ever have an opportunity to get one of these, jump on it. We got ours through a charity auction and it was worth every cent.

Courtney, she was FANTASTIC!! We came in at 11pm and she was SO patient and made our drinks (party of 9) .. which were absolutely delicious! 10/10 would come back and recommend her. She made our visit very memorable and we are excited to come back and visit!

The Old Hickory is one of our go-to bars in downtown Pensacola. It's a craft bar with a nice laid back and casual atmosphere. The bartenders are very nice and helpful, most importantly they make incredible drinks. We spend a lot of time in New Orleans and have grown accustomed to how many craft bars there are. I've waited a long time to be able to choose which one here in Pensacola I want to go to. I truly dislike muddled oranges and maraschino cherries in my old fashions and regular bars seem to do that. How more 1970 can you get? All I need is a good bourbon, simple syrup, bitters and an orange peel squeezed over a lit match as it is held over the the cocktail. A little zip around the rim, and then "plop" into the drink the peel goes. Perfection! Large ice is appreciated but not a requirement. H.S. really likes the varied cocktail menu here. There's lots of craft choices, some with different herbs flavoring or scenting the drinks, others with some pretty crazy flavor combinations. I believe the business allows the bartenders to come up with choices for the menu which is really cool. The menu also changes so frequently that she has completely new choices each time we go.
