Tucked away in a hotel with its own unassuming entrance is Nightcap, a cozy, intimate cocktail bar. Their bartenders are clearly knowledgeable and are skilled in the old school art of conversation. Service is attentive and cocktails are executed well. Do yourself a favor and let them freestyle something for you, as they know what they’re doing when it comes to mixology. Also, this is a friendly place for someone who doesn’t drink alcohol but still wants the experience. The ambience is also well engineered. Mirror ceilings, sexy low lighting, exposed brick, nice finishes and furnishings. Sex appeal 100%. Great spot to grab a drink by yourself, with a friend, or on a date. I’d go back!

Loved this amazing spot for drinks following dinner. Make sure you go closer to opening time due to limited seating, however it is worth adding to your itinerary. Service is great! However depending on when you go there may only be one person behind the bar. We went on a Monday, and I felt bad for the guy who had to take care of a full bar by himself.

Had such an amazing experience that I kind of want to keep this a secret... Drinks/Flavor : 5/5 had the sazerac. Friends all enjoyed their drinks thoroughly as well. Ambience : 5/5 very dark and intimate atmosphere. Semi-faint music playing in the back, but not loud enough to drown out your conversations. Not sure the experience at the bar, but we had a table and we didn't have to shout to talk and other people's conversation didn't spill into ours. Service : 5/5 the water cups are small so the waiters had to make rounds to keep them filled, but they were always there! They were very accomodating when friend asked to see if they can customize her drink. Service with smiles. Very pleasant and good vibes. Really made my night Value for Price : 5/5 great fun to sip your drinks and chit chat while you enjoy the atmosphere. Really lost track of time in there. Very charming

Okay drinks, if you can get service. The last two times I went in the bartenders ignored me and my guests and served other people who entered later. Would not acknowledge me until I was leaving and offered a “sorry”, so clearly they knew what they were doing. Witnessed one bartender completely ignore all the customers at the bar to go be buddy buddy with some belligerent former frat boy types that were loudly saying sexist and predatory things at a booth, leaving the bar back alone to try and manage everything. Used to love this place but won’t be coming back again.

Beautiful space and polite staff. Very disappointed in the cocktails - the two "specials" we tried were too sweet, too basic and served like a soda drink. Pricey too for what it was. I would return for the ambiance but choose a regular drink.

Great service and drinks. Excellent bartenders. My friends and I had a great time there, trying different drinks and all of them were so good.

Nightcap staff was really knowledgeable about drinks. Had a drink named Saturn was delicious and the atmosphere is really cozy and fun. Had an amazing time.

We held our holiday celebration for the office at Nightcap and I couldn't recommend it more highly. The ambience is sophisticated and fun. The bartenders were incredibly fun and charismatic. The drinks and food tasted great. Our service was incredible. They were incredibly easy to work with in setting up our event. The night far exceeded expectations. I will be telling everyone about this place and can't wait to come back.
