Lounge24

I should start by saying this is the same amazing building but with a new and EXTREMELY TALENTED new owner! So those of you who haven't stopped by in a long while maybe this is the change y'all were waiting for! I know that Mrs Mona Lisa still has her booth here as well and am praying my information is accurate ... my opinions and experiences however are first hand and full of love! Amy has worked so hard to make this happen for the community here, and even if she won't say it I will proudly tell you she is a huge advocate for helping her fellow humans be it feeding those who are displaced or collecting school supplies for local kids... but back to the bar!!! the atmosphere is so laidback and yet has a sophisticated vibe so you can't argue the ambiance is here! I can't wait to see what happens next with this one of a kind gem in the heart of downtown Hamilton. I heard she's even renting the top floor out for exclusive events so stay tuned and stop in, Karaoke and have a great time with friends!

It's difficult to earn 1 star but Lounge24 fell far short of basic restaurant/lounge expectations. We noticed Lounge24 after eating at a restaurant around the corner. Since Lounge24 advertises itself as a cocktail lounge, we decided to give them a try. It was a Friday night, about 8:30pm. DECOR/ATMOSPHERE: When you walk in you immediately notice the decor. It seems they are going for a retro 70's feel. The chairs don't just look old, they are old. With their age comes a certain degree of uncomfortableness. The tables are unbalanced and at least one is a card folding table. With the exception of one lamp the lounge is lit brightly with fluorescent lights. When we first arrived canned music was playing on a loop...mostly country songs from the 80s. After about 15 minutes they offered live piano. The guy was average at best. They should've stuck to the canned music. It just sounded better. Not sure if it's a positive or negative but only about 6 people in the place. SERVICE: Sweet lady. It seemed like she was trying her best. DRINKS: They serve beer, wine, and cocktails. We got a Granny Lemonade (basically a lemon drop) and a Amaretto Sour. We could not taste any alcohol in either drink. None. Zero. Even with the other deficiencies had they properly prepared these drinks I'd given them 3 stars. This is a huge faux pas. SUMMARY: Drinks with alcohol would have prompted me to return to give them another try. But when a self-proclaimed cocktail bar serves a lemonade and a fruit drink for $13, I'll be spending my time and money somewhere else.

Good place for a drink and a conversation. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff was very friendly. Didn't care for the local wine but I'll have something different next time. The fruit and cheese tray was good - wish they had a few more things to munch on.

This is a quaint little lounge bar with a lot of potential. My wife and I stopped in after dinner because a couple of the other local drinking establishments were quite crowded. The drinks were expertly made and not watered down. We each had Moscow Mules. The service was very friendly and quick too. The view of the city from our little table along the windows of the 2nd floor was very nice too. They had Popcorn on the stairwell and it was free. The crowd was light tonight as their piano guy cancelled due to illness...but that just made chatting easier so it was ok with me. Parking was easy to find within a block. They might need to market and advertise themselves a little more as I am not sure how many people even know they are there. We will definitely be back often now.

This is a newer cocktail bar in Hamilton. Ideally located in downtown so my husband and I dropped by during after the pumpkin festival for a couple drinks. They had a couple pumpkin festival special such as a tequila sunrise and a fall special. My husband and I went with the recommendation from the bartender who offered a fall special which contained bourbon and a frozen ice cube of apple cider which was good but not on their menu so pretty sure it was limited time. The cider ice cube was a creative way to keep your drink cool. I think it would be really smart to have other takes on that year round as I know other bars that tried orange cubes with blue moon, etc. They also had a apple flavored cider on tap that was good. I felt the prices were good, service was great, location great but comfort ok. We sat at the bar and it was a bit uncomfortable. The vibe is a bit country which is strange for a cocktail bar as I was expecting more modern and trendy. I feel like the place is still figuring out their "vibe" and target audience. I think this could be a cool place If they figure out the decoration a bit more, offer more comfortable seating and host some fun events to bring in their target audience.

Bartender was amazing and the drinks were beyond perfection! It's two story so it's really neat.

You can come as a group or all by yourself. Lounge 24 is a great place to chill. I love the large wraparound patio and fire pit. Live music Friday nights and Karaoke on Saturday nights. Amazing beverage selection including craft beer. Great mix of people from all age groups hang here on the regular.

The bartenders don't know how to make any drinks. Great atmosphere though, just wish they'd hire people that make better drinks

Me and my girlfriend go to the lounge every time We get a chance. It's my favorite. I personally wish they were open everyday but with the other business that is run there (I personally forgot what it is) it's understandable. The servers are wonderful and nice, the atmosphere is amazing and I just love everything about the place. The music is always nice and the drinks are made perfectly every time. The prices are reasonable, food is not always an option but when it is it's great. Popcorn is free and sometimes they even have cheese balls!

Great place with friendly bartenders. Great and unusual cocktail menu. No food but they are good with bringing in or ordering delivery. Very relaxed atmosphere. Upstairs has a great ambiance and view.
