I had the pleasure of visiting the Carpenter Bar recently, and it left quite an impression on me. This establishment truly excels in crafting delicious drinks and the espresso martini is an absolute standout. From the moment I took my first sip, I knew I was in for a treat. The espresso martini was a perfect balance of rich, smooth espresso and velvety textures, complemented by a subtle hint of sweetness. It was a true delight for coffee and cocktail enthusiasts alike, leaving me craving another sip even after the glass was empty. Beyond the exceptional drinks, the Carpenter Bar offers a classy yet cozy atmosphere that sets the stage for an unforgettable evening. The interior design reflects a perfect blend of elegance and comfort, making it an ideal spot for a refined night out. The subdued lighting and sophisticated decor create a welcoming ambiance that encourages relaxation and socialization. One of the highlights of the Carpenter Bar is their sidewalk patio seating. This charming feature allows guests to enjoy their drinks while basking in the pleasant downtown atmosphere. Whether you're savoring the warm summer breeze or taking in the vibrant city energy, the patio seating offers a delightful setting to unwind and enjoy your favorite cocktail. Overall, the Carpenter Bar is a true gem. With their delectable drinks, particularly the memorable espresso martini, and the inviting blend of classiness and coziness in their atmosphere, it's a place that leaves a lasting impression. If you're looking for a sophisticated night out or a relaxing evening on the patio, this bar is definitely worth a visit for an elevated drinking experience.

First time to Sioux Falls and found the best cocktail bar. Love this place.

Amazing unique drinks in a great atmosphere. Had a fantastic cocktail called the Hot Ultra Violet, contains Death's Door Gin, Green Chartreuse, honey, lemon, butterfly pea flowers, orange peel... absolutely delicious

Always amazing service and great drinks! Love the cozy environment! My favorite drink is the 3/4 nelson and honestly it may be my too favorite mixed drink! Definitely recommend!

Amazing cocktails! Drinks and service were great. Celine was awesome!

Great spot for a date night drink downtown Sioux Falls. Drinks were delicious.

The bartenders here are amazing. Easily my favorite bar downtown. Rey makes the best Boulevardier! 🥃

Great place and lovely atmosphere. Wide variety of delightful spirits to select from as well.

Another top shelf bar in downtown Sioux Falls. The Carpenter has fantastic drink options, classic cocktails, special drinks and a great selection of bourbon. Bartenders are very knowledgeable of their trade and friendly. One of the busiest patios in the Summer.

They need better lighting in here at night. The tiny candles are not cutting it. Bit otherwise the drinks and atmosphere is good for an intimate date for drinks

This bar is a reliable choice with a welcoming and upscale midwestern atmosphere. The seating is comfortable, and there are ample coat hangers available for winter coats. The large tall windows offer fantastic front-row views of Phillips Avenue, making it an excellent spot for people watching. An added bonus is the indoor fireplace, which creates a cozy ambiance during the colder months.

Excellent atmosphere, tasty drinks that are well crafted, and reasonable prices for the experience. I'll gladly visit Carpenter Bar every time I'm in Sioux Falls

Smaller bar with a great atmosphere. The music isn't too loud most of the time. The servers are friendly and the drink menu has plenty of options. It can be hard to find a table sometimes.

Best hand crafted cocktails in Sioux Falls. Family from out of state still talk about how good the drinks were a year later

This intimate bar is a great must-stop bar in the downtown Sioux Falls area. Great staff and mixologists that will concoct the perfect drink for you no matter what your likes are.

Impressive team! I love how everyone works so smoothly together in such a tight space to make the best cocktails together. Their cocktails rival some of the best of Detroit even! Such a cozy atmosphere with prompt service and a very impressive group of people. What a wonderful gem to find and a must try if you're in the area.

Love the rustic chic ambience… it’s the perfect cocktail place.. must try.. PS Celine does an amazing job! She is welcoming, smiling and on her toes to her best…

Not sure if this is a “locals” place but we didn’t feel welcomed. We sat at the bar and the bartender was cordial but not real attentive. Another server kept stacking dirty glasses in front of me waiting to be put in the dishwasher. The drinks were ok, but the vibe wasn’t what we were expecting given the reviews.

Best bar in downtown. The mixologists are insane with talent. I love all of them and come not only for the amazing cocktails, but to see their lovely faces! The bar gets busy on the weekend, but they do an amazing job taking care of everyone. I am always so impressed. My husband and I sit at the bar specifically just to watch them mix and appreciate the craft. They deserve all of the stars in the world just for what they do. As for the drinks, my husband and I have been trying to order every drink on their menu, but we have so many favorites now that we might abandon that idea. I recommend the Cucumber Gimlet or Raspberry Collins if you want something light to start. The Green Horn and Paloma are tasty and give a quick buzz that is long lasting. If you are big into tequila like me, the Albatross and Nevertheless are my go to drinks always!

Fantastic atmosphere. Sad its Not bigger. Old fashioned here tops the Treasury. Being from Portland I'm impressed. Staff is fun and polite. The lady from California thought the Citrus bliss was delightful!

Pretty amazing little gem I found while in town! Friendly staff but weren’t quite attentive and only came back to the table once when I asked for the check, they seemed understaffed. Still- I would return when I’m back in town. The old fashion is amazing!

Great cocktail bar! Wonderful service and atmosphere. Drinks are delicious. If you’re in the mood for a good cocktail, this is the place in Sioux Falls.

I love the atmosphere and the drinks! You need to try the drink with the egg whip on top!! So good!

Good beer on tap, wine by the glass and awesome cocktails. We sat outside and had a great time people watching.

Stopped in a for a cocktail before dinner. I had the old fashioned and my wife had the cucumber gimlet. My drink was pretty good, but my wife's was really good! Server was kind and timely.
