Went tonight for the first time, for the Dylan Schneider Concert. All staff was friendly and attentive. Was interested to see that this venue kind of conjoins a Bentley dealership; thought it was odd at first until I read in the bar menu(s) a little history on the purpose and theming, pretty neat! I did not have any food, but the drinks were well prepared and tasty. A little pricey, but for a speakeasy type vibe (and quality) and paired with the concert it wasn't too bad (about 15 per cocktail give or take a few bucks). The portion sizes were a little small when compared to other places in the same chain like Alice or Wicked Rabitt, but not the end of the world. For a concert venue, it was very intricate and intimate. I was only 2-3 rows behind the stage and had a fantastic view. Even if I was in the back of the crowd, it would have been very good compared to most other standing-room only venues I've been to. The close proximity of the bars, smoking patio, and restrooms are of course a nice perk. I'd definitely return if I'm looking for some live entertainment. The best of both worlds combining a lively concert venue with an intimate speakeasy setting.

Late review: It was lucky there was a band here the day I came. That makes it different from the usual day. I was here quite a bit, but they were usually not too busy.

Great new experience having a cocktail here. Our waitress was very good and our cocktails were as well. Fun atmosphere with a different vibe. We had to walk all the way around the building in the cold because they had a private event in the main area, but it was worth it. We sat in the Speak Easy, which is what we came there for.

I recently had a fantastic experience at Barnato! The atmosphere was absolutely great, making it the perfect spot to unwind. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. We were particularly impressed by the amazing cocktails—they really knew how to mix a drink! To top it all off, there was live music that created the perfect ambiance for an enjoyable evening. I highly recommend checking this place out!

Cute cocktail bar with a stage and outdoor seating. I went here for a rock show I'm a rock/metal concert junkie and I would go back in a heart beat! Although next time I would prefer to reserve a booth or table. I sat at the bar and the stools didn't happen to swivel. This is an upscale place and the food does not disappoint! I had the cubano sandwich and it was delightfully flavorful and way better than I ever expected! Now the fries dare I say it are my new favorite with the garlic Parmesan flavor. The Autumn daiquiri was exactly as described so I had 2 early on . I got water towards the end as I have a long drive but sadly they picked it up twice when I had my back turned to watch the show almost directly behind me. Mind you I was at the bar in a bar stool all night. Service was a tad slow but they were very very busy so it was to be expected. Now a rock show isn't complete without a Spill and a bonus glass broken but they were lightning and handled it very quickly. Security was attentive and on top of things and that made me feel more at ease. Rock on MF!

Their salsa night on Sundays is one of the best in town. Great instructors and wonderful DJs. The bar is great and parking is easy. The bathrooms are clean and fresh.

This was a great spot for enjoying a great class of wine and hanging out with friends. The place is so cozy and friendly. Been there at 4- 5 times in the last 6 months. Wine options are plentiful and the staff super friendly.
