Simon Kratzer

Very good cocktails by very friendly bar tenders.

Noah Weiss

From the Wayland folks comes very solid cocktails -- everything with fresh veggies and fruits were particularly good -- and legitimately tasty bar food like a "pastrami " fish sandwich . Solid value.

ZenFoodster

HH Mon-Fri's 4-7pm: $1 East (mostly) & West coast oysters (some) off of menu selection of 10 varieties, 65¢ raw clams + $8 cocktails & beers . Fresh oysters (lil' sand), cocktail shrimp+steamed clams !

Happy hour , interesting cocktails and excellent oysters . Everyone's super nice. Happy hour daiquiris .

Jessica Wickham

Fantastic cocktails , good interesting twists on the classics like margaritas with orange bitters , lime , agave and chili salt. Sit at the bar and enjoy a cocktail afternoon watching the world go by

Alex Hunter

Cozy decor and filled with natural light . When the weather starts to warm up they open a bunch of windows. Repping Time is citrusy and not too sweet. Ask about the weekly frozen!

Derek T. Ku

Happy hour oysters are 1 dollar. Usually they have 12-14 selections on the menu. The ambience feels old-timey but cozy .

Billy Jacobson

Got the Agave Blues , mezcal , blueberry , and lemon . Was super spicy and delicious. Kinda busy on a Thursday evening, but there was room at the bar and 2-3 small tables available.

Fabian Martin

Good drinks good vibes. But loud but it is what it is. Try the making love at midnight cocktail

Clara Eloy

The cocktails were good, it’s a bit pricey though. The place is nice but is a literal oven in the summer and has limited seats

Emilie Futterman

Can get crowded . Yummy cocktails and friendly staff . Great cozy vibe on a rainy night.

Ranu Rajkarnikar

Feels like the Wayland but is more central. Great old fashioned cocktail and space. Come for a great drink and fun crowd.

Ina Li

A bit loud in general but good drinks and gets more chill towards the later of the night

Go for the oyster happy hour and the work shift drink. Came here on a snow day and it felt so homey .

Kayleigh Harrington

The dill and gin cocktail with a salt and pepper rim is delicious. Great ambiance for drinks with friends.

Alex Fish

Great for date night with some cocktails . Get the green juice cocktail , surprisingly delicious

Ruby Anaya

Everything you need - good cocktails , tasty snacks , and not too loud . Plus - oysters !

Terri R

Loved the $1 happy hour oysters ! Great margaritas .

Can get a little crowded during happy hour and all parties need to be present for seating - but otherwise great place!

olivia

obsessed with this place. get the summer smash. beautiful bar in the EV

Melissa Ford

Great cocktails and lively atmosphere

Nate S

Brunch review only: the food was incredibly meh, barely finished the meal. The cocktails were on point. Will definitely try again for drinks, skip for meals.

Alex Robertson

it’s by the Wayland people , so of course the cocktail was good. not much else to draw me in personally though

Meg Farmer

Can get pretty crowded on the wkend, which definitely impacts the level of service. Sonny's cup is a safe bet.

Saleem

A second venture from the Wayland people . -20% ambiance, +30% location. Better than other bars on its block, give it a try.

Alex Albert

Playlist was good, oysters and salad was top tier and huge!!! Staff was so so friendly

Caroline

From crew at Wayland. Light streams in from Windows. Seasonal cocktails and good raw bar

Vishal Shah

Was here on Sat night. Great service and drinks. It didn't hurt that they were playing 90s hip hop .

Leanne Z

Good bartenders and ambiance, gets really loud and dark here.

E. T.

Solid cocktails like the Mezcal-based blue agave and the margarita

I've gone back recently after an average feel following the open and the vibe has improved significantly. Good work, GNS!

Mike Nickerson

Fab spot for dcockyails before a night out. Great/quick service to boot

Wonderful cocktails but what most impressed me were the oysters surprisingly.

This is the kind of place that I though it was a regular bar but came out as a place full of surprises.

Ok, book pages as coasters. A bit contrived, but the page was quite thrilling.
