“ I went to The Hamilton last night for a double date. Drinks were 6 and tasted amazing! I only drank the Fallen Apple but I had a sip of Its Tricky and Gettin Figgy with It. It's Tricky was a bit strong but I am not a whiskey girl. Gettin Figgy with It was strong as well but the flavors were really balanced and the fig tasted delicious. I really love the Fallen Apple and can't wait to go back again. We also had Northside Charcuterie, Beer Cheez & pretzels, and a Brat plate. The cheese for the pretzels was tasty but the texture was ok.The pretzels were warm and soft but a bit salty. I liked the Charcuterie board and tried a few of the pickled vegetables. Also, the place is gorgeous! And the bathrooms are so clean (we discussed the men's bathroom as well)! They have bath and body works hand soap and soft toilet paper not that hard 1 ply stuff! George the bartender was super nice and attentive! If you're in or near Northside I'd definitely check them out! ”
“ Outstanding. Great drinks. And one of the best charcuterie boards around. The beer cheese was out of this world as well. #localspot #naturalwine #romantic ”
“ Great little spot! The theming was unique, it was very clean, and the cocktails were good. It’s not advertised, but they will make the cocktails into mocktails on request. Not too loud, so a fun place to hang out with friends and chat. There was a drink special when I went and it was pretty cool to get good drinks for so cheap! Good small bites with lots of cheese options! ”
“ Wine tasting was very nice! The appetizers were a great compliment to the tasting. Humus quite tasty and the Ricotta Honey on toasted baguette WTF.... OH YES!!!! ”
“ Wow! Gorgeous, welcoming space with a touch of Northside architecture in tiny patches of exposed wall. Ingenious Kendra, the bartender is personable, attentive & according to the guys next to me makes the best cocktail ever Kind of weird to comment on the restrooms but they are seriously nice & the hand soap smells amazing ”
“ A couple friends and I met here from out of town. It happened to be close to where we parked. We enjoyed good food and a great atmosphere! ”
“ I finally get to update my review! Made a stop into The Hamilton on a Tuesday Night. They have a 2.00 Taco's, you have the choice of Chicken, Pork, and Tofu. I tried all 3 and they were delicious and a very good value! I also had the Maverick, which was made with Bulleit Rye, Hibiscus liqueur and Strawberry puree and it was surprisingly a great mix of flavors. The bartender was really pleasant and attentive. I love the vibe of this place, it's very cozy and would be great for an intimate date or just a night out with friends! I also think that the menu may have been expanded since the last time I was in, so there is plenty to come back for! Thank you for a great meal! ”
