The Patterson House
- Vibe: Classic, quiet, and serious about cocktails
- Tip: Arrive early for a seat; no big signs outside.
Attaboy
- Vibe: Custom cocktails with no menu
- Tip: Tell the bartender what flavors you like.
Fox Bar & Cocktail Club
- Vibe: Minimalist, elevated drinks
- Tip: Dress well—this spot leans upscale.
Hidden Bar (Inside Noelle Hotel)
