Totally not a flock of pigeons in a trench coat

Such a nice and chill bar! Probably my favorite in the city. The staff are amazing and the drinks taste so much better than they have any right to.

Best service ever! Vibes remind me of a restaurant in NYC, and our waitress was so kind. She pointed out the vegan options they had and also helped me with my bloody nose that I had later on in the night lol. The potato tacos were amazingggg so so good. Loved it here and hope to come back soon!

Their smoked wings are to 'die for'! Salads and burgers are really good. Pricing is a tad on the high side, and, while the ambiance is great, the interior is quite dark. Watch out for the potentially unsafe and uneven step outside the front door!

Stopping by for the first time to try a variety of drinks and grab a slice of pie for desert was the right choice. The atmosphere is filled with fantastic, live plants and seasonal decor. It’s a nice space for a date or a gathering that offers carefully made hand-crafted cocktails and pairings of delicious food. The staff were all so friendly, respectful, and skilled at their jobs. I can’t wait to come visit again.

Undoubtedly my favorite cocktail spot in Bay City. A rare gem. I’ve been here more times now than I can count. Consistently stellar service each and every time. Staff is excellent and on top of their game. Attentive, friendly, and efficient. Quality craftsmanship in every drink. You won’t find another spot like this in the Tri-Cities. I’ve tried several food offerings on the menu and am impressed each time (tacos, poutine, etc). Great vibe and decor. Love the expanded outdoor seating. Clean restrooms. Will be back again!

We had high hopes, but the menu of cocktails seemed very sweet and syrupy. The bartender assured us the drinks were "perfectly balanced". My wife tried a chocolate cherry cocktail and I had a negroni. They were both unbearably sweet. I finished my negroni, reluctantly. She took a few drinks of hers and left it. Good place for sweet, syrupy, fruity cocktails. Not a great place for standard cocktails. Also, the place was very humid and musty..

Great ambience, loved the space. Excellent craft cocktails. We had dinner in town and popped in for a cocktail to end the evening and so glad we did! If you enjoy quality craft drinks and a cool space, make sure to stop in and enjoy this gem!

I thought it was strange that they couldn't help me get a taxi. Or offer the phone number of one.

This was hands down my favorite place when passing through the area. The drinks and food are phenomenal!!! I visited a handful of other bars/restaurants downtown and this is the spot to be. No other place has craft cocktails or food like this. Awesome atmosphere and the bartenders work hard to get the job done!Thank you so much for the wonderful experience!! We will be back ❤️
