The Spindle Bar

Sprinkles is a reliable spot for a refreshing drink while shopping, and my recent visit with friends was no exception. As a grapefruit lover, I was thrilled with the bartender's excellent drink recommendation - they really nailed it! Sprinkles has become a must-stop for me whenever I'm at Optimist Hall.

This bar had a lot of different options. The cocktails are super fun and creative. Including the one I ordered, which was called "day at the beach". It was super fruity and fun. The bartender was super nice and made our drinks quickly. There was also a smaller version of the bar in a little truck in the courtyard. There I was able to order a couple seltzers. They also had some beer and cider options as well as a couple cocktails. While it's a little on the pricey side, that is to be expected at a place like this. However, the quality is there so it's OK.

On New Year's Day, I had some time to kill and stopped by Optimist Hall. I ended up at The Spindle Bar while looking for a comfy spot to eat my empanada. The servers were very friendly and helpful. I asked for a recommendation on the seasonal holiday menu, and ended up getting a cider-like slushie. Outside of the brain freeze in the thick of winter, it was a great option. My husband ordered an Old Fashioned and said it was as basic as they come, but it wasn't horrible by any means. I doubt I'd return before summer, but I'd for sure stop by again.

Cool bar joint, mixed drinks are a tad bit on the pricier side. Service was fine, no complaints. Drinks were decent and offer enough of what you may be looking for.

Service was so quick. Love that. It was pride weekend and they had a featured Pride drink, loved that too. I had 2 drinks: flower child (decent) and a day at the beach (i liked that one). Not gonna lie, coming from Cali, these prices were a bit shocking at $15 a cocktail. That's a lot imo but seems like cocktails are just pricey wherever you go. I'd definitely come back for a cocktail here

Order the Maleficent Fairy! This is the Optimist Hall Bar. They don't serve any food BUT there is food all around so don't be sad. The service is a very low key, Hipster Bar vibes so don't expect warm and fuzzy service here. The service is speedy though. My go-to is (as you may have guessed) the Maleficent Fairy. Smoky Mezcal, Sweet Passionfruit, Spicy Thai Chili and Bubbly Soda all premixed on tap and garnished with a lime wheel. I always order TWO because they are LIKE THAT. If you're a Mezcal person and you like spicy-sweet over everything? Don't miss this gem.

This was my first time, so I saw drinks that like so very good, but the waiter was very sweet and helped me decide which drink to get. I tried the Flower Child and it was AMAZING!!!! I definitely had to grab another one! It wasn't loud and the ambiance was great! I will recommend this spot!

Great and easy spot to grab a cocktail while wandering around Optimist Hall. Quick and easy while still being great quality cocktails.

I have always been a fan of stopping by Spindle bar for cocktails while grabbing food inside of Optimist hall but this new airstream they have added to the mix is elevated and they are taking it to the next level. This new airstream is located in the courtyard of Optimist hall. We were greeted with shots,& i tried the new inspired themed cocktails added to the Spindle bars new menu. All were tasty my favorite was the Aqua Fresca not only was it a pretty & purple but it was light and refreshing just like I like my drinks depending on the day of the week. The airstream is only available Friday to Sundays. The theme will be changing just in time for Christmas. So I suggest you grab your friends this weekend and go have drinks at this new cool airstream, thank me later.

Love the choice of drinks here, and was stuck on the Flower Child. Extremely refreshing and tasty! Bartender whips it up as soon as you order. Though not a fan of paper straws, each straw here is too cute!
