28 Best Cocktail Bars near North Olmsted

“The Sazerac by Bob was excellent. We really enjoyed our night out.“

“As far as hotel bars go, this one was pretty good! Nice sitting areas both inside and outside. Free pool table inside too! Prices were good as far as hotel bars go. I think beers were four or five bucks. Only downfall was you were not allowed to bring drinks down from your hotel room. (Unless it was in a cup) That's probably a standard rule, but some places let it slide. Overall an excellent experience!“

“My husband and I are weekly regulars at a lot of cocktail bars and restaurants in the Cle/Akron areas because while we don’t live near anything good, we will travel for good cocktails and vegan food, lol. Pins & Needles is one of our favorite places to go! The décor and atmosphere is so fun and really well done for the 70s-era vibes and the cocktails on the menu reflect the times with old-fashioned era-appropriate classics and fun spins on classics that range from light and fruity to rich and boozy and we have actually had some of our favorite cocktails ever here! The menu rotates seasonally, but there’s always something for everyone. (Get the Midnight Cowboy for sure though, it’s one of the best).

It’s great that we can order food from upstairs too because Mahall’s has amazing vegan options and a regularly rotating menu as well. We also love chatting with all the mixologists here - they’re all very welcoming and personable and since we come here a lot we’ve gotten to know a lot of them, so shout out to Carl, Rosie, Connor, Michael, Autumn, and Eric upstairs!

We don’t really go to this venue (Mahall’s & Roxy) for concerts and prefer the low-key and often quieter atmosphere of Pins and Needles, though we’ve also taken big groups there since it can accommodate a lot of people and the space is great for both types of outings. We’ve also brought a lot of people here for their first time and they’ve loved the drinks and food too.“

“My boyfriend and I stopped in here randomly while he was getting his car worked at on Midas down the road. The bartender was very friendly (I didn't get her name) and the drinks were super cheap. We got four tall drafts for $16. I would definitely come here again if I'm in the area.“

“We love Thyme X Table! Always amazing food, drinks and service. It’s our go to spot for special occasions or just a date night.“

“Double date night with family from out of town and we all absolutely loved everything. 5 different entrees and my addiction potatoes we shared it all and zero complaints. drinks were great too! love the atmosphere!“

“Amazing food, service and atmosphere! We started with fresh bread - with marinated red peppers, olives, artichokes and charcuterie. It was a party of six celebrating a birthday and we enjoyed a few glasses of wine and cocktails. We shared a chorizo Mac & cheese, sliders, flatbread and pork belly. Every dish was excellent. Highly recommend for a night out.“

“We had my mom’s 90th birthday party with 28 guests at the Westlake location this morning. Because we are regulars there, Nick the manager bent the rules a wee bit to allow us to have the back area, near the bar for our party right at opening time on a Saturday. The service by wait staff Mary and Lauren was fabulous, every one of us LOVED our food and your hospitality was off the charts! Thank you again for allowing us to have this 90th in the best of all places for our youngest family member (age one) and all the way up! Love, love, love Kitchen Social. Ps. My pimento burger and ceasar salad were ‘da bomb’!“

“Different type of dishes with excellent plating and interesting flavors. I had the kangaroo very good only knock the dish was warm not hot. Others had the halibut scallops and duck.
The duck needed to go back it was too rare which was done without any issues. The green beans were to write home about. The halibut had a flavorful Asian sauce. Can’t go wrong with the scallops!“

“wonderful wonderful atmosphere and staff! The food was top notch, Matt and Julie have a hit on their hands here in Rocky River! Highly recommend Gather on Lake Rd.“

“Excellent service by Jeny“

“My husband and I really enjoyed coming here for our date night! We shared the warm olives to start, which were delicious. My husband had the Salmon Succotash and I had the Mushroom Fettuccine. Then we shared a serving of the bread pudding. All was delicious, fresh, and hot! Our waitress was amazing. Overall a great experience and we will definitely be coming back.“

“I'm from Northeast Ohio and live roughly 25 miles away from WRD. Here's my confession... I'm kinda an experienced bourbon snob but have never visited WRD. I'm writing this very positive review because for awhile I've enjoyed WRD's bourbons (particularly their single barrel), as well as their tequilas. For me, WRD single barrel bourbon, sipped as neat is a pleasure; it carries a smooth / calm profile with just a touch of burn at the end. I'll stack it against any Kentucky bourbon with the same age profile. I also think that it being double distilled makes a difference in taste, and having it sourced with organic ingredients is a great plus. Can't wait to make a pilgrimage to WMD and hopefully get a chance to meet the owners.“

“Super friendly and attentive people there, affagato was delicious. and we're looking forward to coming back for more ice cream flavors. Brought my family visiting from out of town, and all 8 of them left very happy. Being able to enjoy a snack or drink while browsing their vintage shop nextdoor was a nice bonus.

Dietary restrictions: They have good dairy-free ice cream, flavors may rotate“

“Hosted a Rehearsal Dinner at Summer Place and it was AMAZING! The food was awesome, the staff were very professional and courteous. George specifically was a great waiter! Everyone in attendance had a fabulous time. Well done! Highly recommend and the view…PRICELESS“

“This place was GREAT!! We had "THE BEST" waiter. DARION....he was very personable..We got into the subject of traveling,,and he told us the best story of his reuniting with a former girlfriend...their trip across the U.S to Las Vegas..buying Goodwill clothes to get married in the little white chapel...Sightseeing at the Grand Canyon...all while giving us the BEST SERVICE EVER!! We were a party of 5,,and EVERYONE'S food was Top Notch!!
We will definitely go back...and hope to see Darion again!!! Thanks again Darion,,for such an enjoyable experience!!!!❤️🎉👍“

“The food was amazing! Service was a C. Slow - we were the only ones in there. I asked for our bill & the waiter brought a credit card machine. I said, where is my bill and he says if you don’t trust me, then I’ll print it out. He prints out my bill, but when I went to the register, it was a different amount. Make sure you take cash or they charge you an additional 3%.“

“Great drinks & prohibition era atmosphere. Live music too!“

“Came to Artis for the first time with high expectations, from everything I've seen of the place it seemed unique and interesting. Those expectations were met and exceeded by the staff, food, and experience.

I sat at the bar, the bartenders name was Cory. He was attentive, and knowledgeable. He had an in depth understanding of the food, and drinks happily answered any questions, and made great suggestions! The vibe was upscale, but with more smiles than you usually expect at such a nice place! Get the Harrissa Nashville, the 9 Year Mac, and the Panna Cotta. The pickles that come with the Nashville are insanely good! Unfortunately I ate before the camera for all but the last!

Update: I wish I could leave a new review but Google will only let you leave one. Came back for the start of brunch and was blown away, the texture on the waffle was insane! The sausage gravy and biscuits looked as good as they tasted. I've been back since and the hummus was one of my favorite things. If Jeffrey Brown thinks it tastes like Costco hummus I'd like him to point me to the brand. That or he's never had good hummus, either way trust me you won't regret it.“

“After years of having knowledge of this establishment we finally decided to try it and were not disappointed. The food was great and the atmosphere fun. We enjoyed the band and stayed later than anticipated.“

“Just had Brunch there with my daughter. Our server was great. The lobster roll was on the best I have ever had.“

“I am not a seafood lover but, I had the walleye and it was fantastic.“

“Party room was everything I hoped for. We brought our own food and drinks you! I believe it was 150 to rent the room for the four hours. We had option of a bar tender. Also very kid friendly!“

“Ryan the Manager on 06/01/23 went above and beyond to help resolve an issue with my pick up order. Very professional and super kind. Thank you Ryan! Food is delicious!“

“Friends and I had an enjoyable dining experience at Vosh. The patio is absolutely gorgeous. Inside dining area was rather cold so I am glad outside dining was available. The grouper tacos ? I ordered were nothing special; it wasn't worth the price. But the truffle fries ? and herb crusted mozzarella were very tasty. The pear gorgonzola ? was the best and our server made sure to separate the order into 3 plates to share. Our server was attentive and staff helped each other out.“

“food and service are top notch, great selection of beer and other adult beverages.“

“We had dinner this evening and our experience was excellent. Our service was outstanding, the food was incredible, and the drink just as delicious as the food. We will be back soon and highly recommend .“

“Great place to stop for airport priced beers before getting out of CLE! Don't forget to tip the awesome servers!

Parking: Have to use airport parking AND buy a ticket / go through TSA just to get a beer at Sammy's but who doesn't love the RED ROCKER! We'll worth it. I can't drive 55!“
