Hidden gem! Exposed brick, great decor and to die for chandelier. Amazing cocktails, wonderful service! Great wine selection, $10 wine of the month. Josh and Brigit spent extended time chatting with us and talking about the area and their amazing wines! Amazing and personalized service and as first timers we felt incredibly welcome. I would highly recommend checking out this one of a kind spot.
The Hamilton is our new Northside favorite. A great selection of brands and brews, jazz night, wax Wednesday and one of the best happy hours in town. Bridget is an awesome bartender and really knows her stuff. DMB
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!
Fantastic wine options, great bourbon selection, and yummy light bites, not to mention an unexpectedly good taco Tuesday! One of my favorite places in the neighborhood.
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!!!!
Full disclosure; my wife and I are not regulars but we think of The Hamilton as our "go to" bar on our Birthdays, Anniversary, etc. I should have made this point on the night we were there (July 11, 2023) or shortly thereafter but life gets in the way. I ordered the "Kentucky" drink special but asked for bourbon instead of rye. Every other time I have done so (10+) there was no problem and they charged me the specified price. This time I had my usual 2 drinks but noticed when I got home that I was "upcharged" for the bourbon. (Why a "Kentucky" special would have rye is a question for another day.) I do not blame the bartender because when I made m request for the substation I saw her check with a woman whom I assume is the manager and/or owner. Not the worst thing that has ever happened to me at a restaurant/bar but I don't want to just not go there anymore without telling you my reason.
Outstanding. Great drinks. And one of the best charcuterie boards around. The beer cheese was out of this world as well. #localspot #naturalwine #romantic
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!
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!
Excellent drinks!
A good $15 bottle of wine???!!!
Very attentive staff.
This is a great bar to visit like we did, during the week. The food was delicious and we ate well despite the limited menu. We were able to get a great assortment to share. We loved the sangria, Jalapeño margarita and the chicken panini. Holly even lent me her charger for my phone. I definitely recommend it!
Perfect service, delicious drinks, and absolutely crave worthy food. The atmosphere is cozy, clean, aestically pleasing, and welcoming. There is a great selection of liquor, plenty of cocktail specials, and the business even infuses their own liquor and pickles their own vegetables. I almost don't want to review it because I don't want to give away such a special spot. Breezy was our bartender and if you're lucky maybe they'll be yours too. 10/10!
