I
love
a
themed
venue
and
an
artisan
cocktail
so
when
I
heard
about
this
spot,
I
just
couldn’t
wait
to
go.
Ambiance:
My
sister
and
I
were
told
this
spot
is
small
and
to
arrive
early
on
a
Saturday
night.
We
decided
to
arrive
shortly
after
opening.
We
got
there
around
6:40
p.m.
and
walked
right
up
the
stairs
running
along
the
side
of
Beer
Garden
to
access
the
place.
At
6:40
p.m.,
it
was
already
moderately
full.
Everything
in
there
is
themed.
From
the
menu
being
named
the
“Book
of
Life,”
to
the
skull
chandeliers
and
the
entryway
that
looks
like
an
old
school
tufted
coffin.
There’s
plants
and
cozy
seating
areas
and
a
row
of
barstools
that
line
the
bar.
On
the
bar
there’s
a
basket
of
fresh
fruits
used
to
make
various
zest
and
garnishments
for
the
drinks.
The
bar
is
stocked
with
liquors
that
aren’t
your
standard
run
of
the
mill
b.s.
or
well
known
celebrity
backed
spirits…real
cocktail
enthusiast
know
what’s
up!
There’s
candles
lit
everywhere
so
you
feel
your
entering
a
séance.
It’s
quite
impressive.
It
is
even
smaller
than
it
appears
online.
I’d
estimate
only
30
people
can
be
in
there
at
once.
Service:
the
bar
was
staffed
by
one
bartender/the
owner
and
while
she
very
friendly
and
pleasant,
because
these
cocktails
are
art,
it
took
awhile
to
churn
out
drinks.
Which
brings
me
to
my
favorite
part….
The
Cocktails:
We
aren’t
talking
about
drinks
made
by
just
pouring
liquor
and
mixers
into
a
shaker,
We’re
talking
cocktails
that
are
set
on
fire,
have
multiple
housemade
fresh
mixers
and
zest,
have
real
$20
a
jar
maraschino
cherries
skewered
on
bamboo
drink
picks,
golden
skull
drink
picks,
and
drinks
that
ignite
when
sprinkled
with
cinnamon
or
sugar
as
if
you’re
witnessing
witchcraft.
They
are
beautiful
and
very
delicious,
served
in
glasses
unique
to
the
drink,
and
not
overly
sweet
so
you
get
to
really
taste
the
essence
of
the
drink.
We
got
the
Singapore
sling,
rum
ting
ting,
and
something
else
that
was
garnished
with
a
hibiscus
flower.
Each
cocktail
was
between
$11-$15
which
is
not
bad
considering
the
level
of
artistry
and
quality
of
these
cocktails…and
yes
I
keep
saying
cocktails
because
these
cocktails
are
saddity
broads
that
don’t
deserve
to
be
called
drinks
lol
It’s
a
great
“first
stop”
on
a
night
of
bar
hopping.
Edgewood
parking
is
always
the
worst
and
it’s
all
pretty
sketchy
so
the
earlier
you
come
the
better.
If
you
come
early,
catch
some
street
parking
near
by
and
use
the
park
mobile
app
to
make
sure
you
don’t
get
booted.
Summary:
unique
themed
bar
that
makes
cocktails
that
are
definitely
art.
Reasonably
priced
cocktails
for
the
quality.
Very
small
venue
so
arrive
early,
parking
that
is
sketchy
and
probably
not
easy
to
come
by
because
it’s
Edgewood.
Bring
friends
who
won’t
embarrass
you
because
they
think
Ciroc
is
high
end
vodka.
Be
prepared
to
wait
on
your
drink…it’s
not
a
vodka
and
tonic.
