There isn't really a good martini bar outside of a fancy restaurant or hotel ASIDE from this location.
Back in the day, this was my favorite place, because it had Tom Collins as a mixer on the pop dispenser hose. Â (tell me where you've ever seen that before). Â However, they got rid of that as only myself and 60 year old men drink Tom Collins. Â Unfortunate, but ever since, the bartender (Dave) has always remembered what I want immediately when I walk in. Â (and properly serves it in a Tom Collins glass)
Don't forget that you can order in your dinner since they don't cook food inside, or take your drink next door to the hookah/cigar bar which is BYOB. Â
If you're looking to throw a party, you can rent out the room in the back at no cost and have a beautiful view of the Mississippi River and Schwiebert Park.
