    I'm not from Montgomery and to be honest my expectations with regard to food, drink and entertainment aren't that high for Montgomery. My criteria for a bar that I will frequent is #1 the skill of the bartender, #2 the atmosphere and lastly the patrons. I've been to KRU twice and was really surprised; the cocktails I drank were excellent. It's a clean bar with an excellent bartender i.e. David and a relaxing atmosphere. The patrons seem to be regulars...good people.

    A nice cozy bar with good selection of beer, wine and cocktails. The bartender is very pleasant to talk with.

    Best bar in Montgomery by a mile. Mendel is an amazing bar owner. The atmosphere, drinks, art, and the patrons are all top notch. The patio and the inside are both so great, you’ll find yourself not knowing where to enjoy your time there.

    Easily the best bar in town. Try a Shrunken Skull if you like fruity drinks or a Red Arrow if you like something bittersweet and spiced. It’s a chill bar/lounge atmosphere most of the time, but gets pretty lively on DJ nights! Check the Facebook page and plan accordingly.

    Friendly nice atmosphere and loved it because it was non smoking!

  • 5/5 Kaylee H. 2 years ago on Google
    This is the best chill bar in Montgomery, hands down. The drinks aren't expensive, plus you get served by an award winning bartender. Seriously, ask him about it. There's a ping pong table, the place is filled with art, and the back patio is spacious and inviting.

    Been twice. Two different bartenders. Two different vibes. But the same quality of drinks and welcoming energy. Love the vibe. I found another regular spot! ❤️

    I had a Moscow mule which was awesome. I loved the ambiance and option to play old school games. The prices were reasonable. Chris was the bartender while I was there He was personable, kind and easy to talk to. Drinks are not watered down. I'm from Columbus but the next time I'm in Montgomery I will visit this bar again.

    Great bar! Best place to stop in Montgomery for drinks! We stopped for a beer and ended up staying a couple of hours just talking with the owner about his travels throughout Europe. Greetings from Berlin, Germany!

    The patio was nice. Very noisy inside. Cocktails tasted quite weak or just off. All beers are canned or bottled, no draft. No music to speak of.

    Fantastic bartenders, great cocktails, and a nice and easy atmosphere. Give this place a go if you want to try something new and good

    Really nice casual atmosphere. I love the decor and the bartender/owner (so sorry I forgot your name) is really nice and knows what they are doing. Great drinks.
