Standing Room Only

Jocelyn Wombwell

We're so glad we decided to make our way to Standing Room Only for our date night! This place packs an awesome experience into a tiny space. From the decor to the friendly staff (thanks, Doug!) we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Doug is a showman behind the bar, and we spent the evening mesmerized as he made not just our drinks, but those of the other patrons, too. In this day and age of instant gratification, it felt decadent to enjoy a beverage (or two) made with such care and attention. The stories and laughs completed the whole experience. Such a gem in the heart of The Ward!

What a fun experience!! And amazing cocktails. I’ll definitely be coming back. It was a very cozy and relaxing time while also fun and interesting. The cocktails are delicious and it’s a lot of fun to watch them get made. The bar is very small and it gives you a unique experience to socialize with other guests and the owner. Make sure to drink lots of water after your visit!

Doug is amazing at what he does. He graciously held a private get together (also courtesy for my cousin) and put together the best cocktails I've ever had, some of them created by Doug himself. Alongside great cocktails, the effort and artistry put into the details and decor of the small space exponentially adds to the total experience. It's a gem of a place and I highly recommend this hidden treasure off the beaten path.
