Stopped in last night for the first time while waiting for a pizza next door. Had a great time. Curt or Kurt (SP) made some great recommendations and we had a nice chat about the place. I look forward to bringing my wife back for some pizza from next door and a cocktail or 2!

Kurt welcomed me in and was patient with me for knowing nothing about good whiskey or cocktails. He could have gotten impatient as it was busy, but he took his time to help me find what I wanted and taught me what to look for. “Gelato” mixed drink was a highlight.

Best bourbon bar in Akron, with over 300 kinds on the shelves, the only one in Ohio accredited by the Bourbon Trail. The bartender, Erica is a double certified executive bourbon steward, and happily shares her enthusiasm and knowledge of bourbons and whiskies with her patrons. It's strange to be excited about spending time in a bar but, with so many choices, this is a place where that comes easily. The tasting flights are priced from very to barely affordable, with each set giving new experiences to discover. Great place to learn and enjoy what whiskey (and other drinks) have to offer.

Erica was great and one of the most knowledgeable bartenders I've ever known when it comes to bourbon. Ask her for recommendations. Impressive selection here. Did not try the food selections during our visit ... just bourbon!Parking: Hard to find this place. Enter lot from the drive on West Market Street across from Frank Boulevard and keep driving between buildings till you see the tavern on the left.

This is an amazing place with the best bourbon selection here to Kentucky! I love the drinks. The staff is amazing. I just love this hidden little gem. .

Erica is the best bartender around. Friendly, smart, can make just about anything if she has the stuff - even drinks that don't exist (maple cream stick bourbon goodness with crushed pretzel rim)

My friend was visiting from Chicago and thought this place looked like a great place to go and experience Akron. Rude bartenders extremely judgmental would not recommend.

Brandon Pritchett

This is the best place in the neighborhood for cocktails, there's no discussion. An amazing selection of whiskey, bourbon, scotch, and hard to find spirits. South Point has an atmosphere unlike any place in the area! Go see Mycal and Anna!! They're cool as hell! Very knowledgeable and full of recommendations!! Love this place!

Chris Parker

Perhaps the best bourbon experience I've ever had at a bar. Incredible bourbon list and pretty decent pricing. The opportunity to try so many unicorns in a flight was awesome and the bartender was super knowledgeable and we talked bourbon shop all night. So glad we found this bar on a work trip!!!?

Christopher Sam

Such great atmosphere. Everybody's friendly and having a great time. Erica knows her stuff and can make just about anything you want. It will be good and you will be back
