What C likes about Captain Gregory's:
Super cool speakeasy behind the wall of a donut shop. Make a reservation. The cocktails are pretty good.Cool atmosphere. Awesome music. They were nice enough to give us donuts when we were leaving. (I don't know if that's standard practice there, the waitress gave them to me out of courtesy for not liking my drink) View all feedback. What Celestine Grady doesn't like about Captain Gregory's:
Drinks were amazing and while expensive, worth it! Unfortunately, everyone in our group of four left in a bad mood due to a rude server.Being a tourist and excited for this experience, I was recording the opening of the door and (As another review mentioned) the hostess expressed her irritation at being filmed. Totally understandable, but if this is a common thing, please put up a large sign or send a warning in rese... View all feedback.

Captain Gregory's is a mixed bag of experiences. While the ambience and cocktails are top-notch, the service can be lacking at times. The bar is cozy and funny, and the food is surprisingly good, but the prices are a bit high. Customers reported rude staff interactions and slow service. However, the speakeasy vibe is spot-on, with expert bartenders crafting delicious drinks. Reservations are required, and the small plates menu offers unique options. Despite some shortcomings, Captain Gregory's is a must-try spot for adventurous cocktail lovers.
