Best Cocktail Bars in Aston

Really cool, vintage atmosphere with great, live music. We had a reservation but upon arrival, finding out who to connect with to be seated was chaotic and unclear. Once we found who we had to check in with, seating was relatively quick but still a lot of shuffling back & forth, in a crowded bar area before being escorted to our final destination. The hostes was very nice & our server was also pleasant. Service was a bit slow but it was getting busy. Drinks tasted good but seemed like a very light pour, for the prices charged. Having the option to go over to the club without having to leave the building was also a big plus!

The branzino and the snapper were our highlights last night. we had the sides of broccolini and potatoes which were so fresh and delicious. There were starters of crudos salmon and yellow tail which were small but tasty bites for the 4 of us. The clams were liked by three the 4th is not a fan of cooked clams.

We celebrated my Husband's Birthday with a Tasting Menu Dinner. Everything went perfectly. Cocktails were first rate including his Vesper. Each course was a culinary delight and the desserts at the end of the meal blew us away. We were so full by the end. The views of the city at night are magnificent. The multiple servers were friendly, efficient and courteous. For special occasions, this is the place to be.

We had excellent service and the waiter gave wonderful recommendations. He was very attentive and the ambiance was amazing. Love the partnership with the school district for the students to play jazz on Mondays. They sounded great and very professional.

Intimate jewel of a place located upstairs from Ogawa omakase sushi bar. The cocktails are a marvel—loved the tomato essence riff of the dirty martini. But the bespoke cocktail made after giving your taste preferences (vegetal vs sweet, gin vs vodka, etc) were revelatory. While the menu is spare it’s all delicious and be prepared to order two sets of fries and their addictive wasabi mayo dip. The chicken is crunchy, the tofu slider satisfying and the hot dog rich and juicy. The celery and cucumbers are great palate cleansers. Don’t forget to order a beer to accompany the food and save your cocktail for sipping before and after. There were 4 of us and we ordered everything on the menu with doubles on sandwiches and fries. Your time slot is limited to 1 hr and 45 min and you’re going to want to take advantage of all of it so plan to order your next round of cocktails 10-15 min before you’re done with your first as they do take time to prepare. Budget $100pp with 2 rounds of cocktails and food. Server and host Eli Eisenstein is warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. Cocktail maestro Rob stopped by at the end to check in which was so appreciated. We will certainly be back. A wonderful addition to the Philly food scene.
