I really enjoy this place! It's a cozy little bar located at the back of L&E, offering a simplified menu along with donuts and snacks on the weekends. The bartenders are relaxed, the vibe is casual (though a bit hipster), and the drinks are cold and delicious. Everything about it is great!
I really enjoy the atmosphere and the cocktails at this place; it seems to have everything going for it. My only concern is that it feels like everyone is pretending not to notice the occasional smell of sewage—what's that about? That said, L&E is fantastic, and the additional space is great if you're waiting for a table or just want a drink. I do wish the bar were a bit bigger and that there was an extra bartender on hand, as it takes a while to get a drink. I understand that quality takes time, but they don't seem well-equipped to handle a busy crowd back here.
I wanted to provide an update after reading the first (and only) review — they do serve food here now! The menu features a selection of small bites inspired by the offerings at Longman Eagle. As for the drinks, the selection is limited compared to what you’ll find in the main area, and they also don't offer specific whiskey flights. Our group was larger and couldn't get a table at LE, but we managed to secure 4 of the 6 tables available here. The space is quite quiet since it's separate from the restaurant and is cozy in size. It’s a charming little garage area that felt very warm and inviting on a chilly January night.
I enjoyed the experience. The bartenders were excellent.
Logan's best restaurant, especially on Mondays but also on any other day.
