Reviews
- TaylorFoodie0Feeling down, I decided to drown my sorrows in alcohol and tried every drink on the menu. The [beer] section was a delight. I adored the "Holiday Cucumber," a rum-based cocktail with coconut oil that beautifully blends the freshness of daffodils with the tropical sweetness of pineapple. The layers were distinct and it was exceptionally delicious. "Kiss of Green Grape" was another favorite, combining green grapes and lemon leaves for a refreshing taste. "渡花荔枝" offered a refreshing hint of lychee and was perfectly sweet. "The Fifth Sense" started with a tangy tomato acidity and a hint of basil, while "Centennial Cigar" had a subtle smoky flavor with rich coffee and chocolate notes, though it leaned towards bitterness. The bartender also served me some straight rum, which was superb. "Liquid Cheese" was a must-try for its milky sensation and low alcohol content, a drink I had been craving. "Almond Tofu" wasn't for me, with its slushy texture. "Osmanthus Fen Brew" was too heavy on the baijiu flavor for my taste. "Earl's Manor" was a winner with its strong tropical fruit notes.

- AveryLover32"This is my favorite gin house. I've changed jobs and now live far from Chaoyang District, so it's been a while since I last visited. [Beer] Drinks: I've basically tried every drink on the menu, which now includes both sweet and slightly sour options that I enjoy. [Service Bell] Service: During peak hours, it can be a bit slow getting served, and there isn't much food available in the bar, so you either need to order delivery or eat something before you come. [Mint] Atmosphere: Winter is the perfect season to visit a gin house. Each little room is warm and stylish. How can I describe this place? Every time I come here, I leave with new friendships and moments of joy. I hope to be even happier on my next visit."



- QuinnExplorer72"We met up with friends at this cozy little bar on Friday night, and the atmosphere was fantastic. The retro decor and soft music made it perfect for chatting and unwinding. We ordered a few signature cocktails, and the bartenders tailored them to our taste preferences, even including some complimentary snacks and shots, which was great value for money. The drink menu was innovative, featuring some new fruit-flavored concoctions, like the one with elderflower, which had a unique taste. We intended to order two of those, but the server surprised us with a complimentary homemade cocktail, which was a delightful bonus. Plus, getting a taxi back home was convenient, so we'll definitely be back to try out more drinks."
