The interior design was gorgeous! Gold accents really made the art pop. Really beautiful atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating. They had a wide variety of drinks at the bar and the food was amazing, they even have mocktails for the kids! Really nice place to have a good time and eat delicious food. They were very accommodating with food allergies which is so important. I was there with a large cross country group after a meet. You can imagine we were all very hungry and tired, the service was excellent, severs greeted us and were very welcoming. They were very efficient and we got food and drinks after 10 minutes. When leaving they wished us luck throughout the rest of our cross country season. Overall great vibes, everyone was friendly, food was great, atmosphere was great, definitely recommend this place!! Will be coming back!

Great vibe and atmosphere! Loved the live music. Good seating selection outside ranging from couches, small tables and larger tables. Just went here for drinks so I cannot speak to the food options.

Loved the atmosphere! Our waiter Brady was awesome!! Good drink suggestions. Definitely a cool place for many occasion. Will definitely be back. gorgeous outside area that is the place to be after hours. Elevator accessible so we didn’t have to do stairs. Can’t wait to come back when the sun is down and we can truly enjoy the rooftop experience

My husband & I visited the 12 Bar Lounge for the first time last night, I noticed when I pull up to the location how nice of an area it was, parking wasn't a problem. We went around the back of the building and took the elevator up. Upon walking out of the elevator he's a big window where you can see down at the parking lot below. You turn right and go into the restaurant there was a nice set of doors with a design etched into the glass window. Upon walking into the restaurant/ lounge area we noticed a lot of open tables and a long fancy bar. We walked around the corner and we seen what look like a garage door wide open and people out on the rooftop of the restaurant sitting at tables. Everybody was outside because they were awaiting a special guest appearance from someone who was playing that night at 6 pm. It was a very beautiful area with red umbrellas and in red cushions on the couch has it was very comfortable and welcoming! We wanted to sit outside but there wasn't any more tables so we sat inside for this visit. There were such beautiful views out the windows and everything was so clean and it was very spacious. We ordered the cheese curds as an appetizer and they were very tasty, a little bit pricey at $12 but still great flavor and then our 2 meals were both right around $12 also. You can tell that the chicken with hand breaded it had a nice flavor to it. Our waiter was a young man and he was very attentive and accommodating. I love to the huge barn door that was inside of the bar area and it's just a very comfortable place to be, we will be returning!

I LOVE Twelve Bar!! I have hosted and been to a number of parties here (birthday, engagement, team parties). I love happy hour. Their apps are so good! Their drinks are pricey but they are worth it for a fun date night or hanging out with your friends. I love the roof top bar. It’s perfect for summer and cozy for cooler temps.

We always have a great experience here. We have reserved for Birthdays with friends on the couches, our Bachelorette/bachelor Duo celebration last year, mother's Day with the moms of our family and even date nights. The owner is kind, works hard with the whole team, great staff who work hard too, and our waiter was top notch and consistent. Our drinks were delicious and beautiful, food arrived quickly and was scrumptious and we will definitely continue to support local establishments just like this one! Outside and inside seating is a wonderful experience. Thanks so much for taking care of us no matter the size of the party we have, we have never been dissatisfied or disappointed. I have to say this, Mothers Day was a hard one last year and we stuck around even though so many people were making bad comments to us about the long wait or not getting their food. We seriously enjoyed ourselves and had patience's bc truly mothers don't have it easy year round and mistakes happen. We were definitely taken care of and honestly can't wait to celebrate mother's Day again next year at Twelve Bar if we can make it happen. Delicious mimosas they gifted us, solid Brunch menu, and no matter what a kind attitude even when challenges presented themselves throughout service they were consistently genuine and honest. We were so impressed with their hospitality and graciousness. Thank you for your kindness and the generosity. We are thankful for a family run business we can support through thick and thin. Cheers y'all! We will be back!

Philly tots were delicious. Very cool place. Haven't been in the Heights for 25 +years, and it felt very nice that it's making a comeback. If I lived here again, would definitely be back. Live music was incredible and was actually better most major cities.

Nice vibe. The best outdoor seating, if weather permits.
