What our guests are saying
Great vibes; great bartenders. One of the best cocktail bars you can go to. Every single bartender here can make you delicious drinks, whether it be from their vast menu or freestyle. The atmosphere is great and chill, plus their food is amazing!

I was so excited to visit Lemon Drop, and I wasn’t disappointed! I had the Jane Bond (delicious, and I don’t even like gin) and a lemon drop. Both good! Had the lemon pepper wings. The rub was heavy but yummy.
