Forum Cocktail

Ambiance is clean and vibrant. DJ plays the best diverse tunes and takes requests from guest. Food is really REALLY good along with the drinks too. Drink selections from the menu can fit any taste bud. Restrooms are 1 stalled so there may be a line. There is enough space for large parties in the main forum but not so much in the speakeasy portion. If you don't want to be too socialable but on the more intimate side, the speakeasy side is for you! You don't hear the music as loud.

So this spot is clutch! I can't stress that enough. It's in the Chattahoochee food hall area so you may not come across it unless you're looking for it because there's so much other stuff over there. Parking is not free so you make sure you pay the park but depending on where you go in the area you can possibly get a validated. I don't think that this spot does the validation. I came on the back half of the evening in my parking was free and the structure across the lot from the establishment. I would definitely suggest making reservations. You can go to the forum or you can go to the speakeasy inside of the form which is called the midnight room. That's where I made reservations for online. If you go to the forum, It's a really dope spot with a couple of TVs and swim lounge areas. They have a full bar in bartenders that are really nice and super friendly. If you go to the midnight room, it's kind of a back room that you go to that has the same situation only it's more personal and more private. If you try to be a little more intimate then this is the spot for you. Again, they only have limited space so you want to make sure that you do would do a reservation online. There's a 15 minute grace period I believe but you can call them if you have any issues. Typically I do an old fashioned, if you read my reviews you already know that. But I did a Manhattan. I did a smoke Manhattan It was actually pretty good. Had really good presentation. They smoked it in a dome and brought it to the table and that was pretty cool. It was a pretty well constructed cocktail. If you look on a menu though the only difference between the Manhattan and the old-fashioned was the smoke so that was kind of weird but no matter! Also try the french fries. Well the super hungry so fries were enough, but I tried the garlic parm fries and these joints were fire! They were very crispy and well seasoned and they came with ranch and ketchup.Overall I think I would invest more time in this establishment period If you want to go ahead and get a little duck off and trying to find some place that's a little more quiet and intimate if you're trying to get some one-on-one time or a small group of friends, this is definitely a spot. Just to note, the midnight room will fill up so make sure you heed your reservation. But I did enjoy the vibe. They had music playing in the background and everything and it was actually old school '90s music so it really spoke to my soul. I can't stress enough just make sure that you are aware of the fact that 20% is added to your bill already. I kind of wonder how I got to about $80 with two drinks and some french fries, but they will add it to the bill but if you are aware of that then it's no problem. Would I go back? 100%!

I was really hoping this was going to be good. We arrived around 6:30pm on a Saturday and the place was empty. Two people sitting at the bar. There was a hostess at the front, 3 bartenders and 2 other staff members next to the bar. All of the tables had reserved signs on them, it must have been to keep people from just sitting down outside because we were told we could sit where ever we wanted. I've never been to a cocktail bar that didn't bring you water right away as you order and wait for your drinks. And we did wait, about 20 minutes for 4 cocktails. Remember, there were 3 bartenders... when I asked for waters, we didn't them them, as the drinks started coming out one at a time, I again asked for waters. The server brought out 4 bottles of Fiji water, without asking if we wanted bottled water, I asked to return them and get tap ice water. The drinks were ok, a little on the expensive side, but everything at the works is that way. I honestly don't mind because it's such a great spot. We asked for our tab and found the Fiji waters still on the bill at $5 each! Oh, and a 20% gratuity was automatically added without saying anything about it. It was written in the menu, but it should still be said as there was still a line for tipping. I can't imagine this place is going to last long, no one was there and the service was really bad. Don't waste your time.

This was quite the disappointment. We were at first, the only individuals in the speakeasy. The bartender was nice , but not very professional . She kept smoking her vape , and having personal conversation with her friends I assume who were at the bar . She kept leaving to take a phone call from her " babe " . This was out first time there and not impressed. We were given FIJI water when we walked in as complimentary , but were charged for it .

This is a 21 & up restaurant. It's located close to Chattahoochee Food Works, right next  door to Axe Throwing Atlanta. If you're coming on a weekend reservations are highly recommended, it's a small space. On this visit I only had cocktails in the Speakeasy. Your entire party has to be present. Tip: You must book the Speakeasy (The Midnight Room) under Experiences in Open Table if you want to visit the secret room. It is reservation only. You will have an hour and a half in The Midnight Room. FOOD IS NOT offered. There is no menu in the Speakeasy which also means you have no idea the price of your drink until you receive your check. The mixologist asks you what type of cocktail you're interested in then they create you a drink. Get creative and step out the box. It was pretty cool to see what he created for our table of 6, everyone's drink was very unique. I requested a bourbon spirit forward drink and said I like ginger, the mixologist made a Manhattan without the vermouth and added maraschino flavoring and cardamom. I enjoyed it! It was perfection and something I probably would never order. My Manhattan cocktail was $18 plus gratuity is added on to the bill, 20%.  Enjoyed the spot and would like to return to eat in the restaurant.

The ambiance is very cute and very instagramable. Low light settings, great artwork, and dj after 10 on the weekend. The oysters were really good, the baked wings were delicious honey lemon pepper ( the fries were not a fan favorite, they were very thick potato wedges that were dry), and the Ceasar salad was a nice size as well. However, the drinks were uber sweet from the old fashion to their "dank gimlet" and little to no alcohol taste, just sweet. The server offered suggestions and was able to check with the chef to have warm chicken on the salad instead of cold but towards the end, she seemed overwhelmed with her tables and forgot about us. I would come back for sure but maybe just order neat drinks instead of their cocktails.

West was our server and he was the best! We cocktails were great! I loved how the bartender placed his twist on the selection. I never had a rum punch that was so good! The ambiance was decorated with a modern with creative visual muse!I recommend this for a chill cocktail night or after hour date night!

Just terrible. Drinks are small and watered down. Dishonest owners are definitely putting water in the liquor. Avoid this place. Overpriced and underwhelming. Update: the crazy owner called me upset about my review, screaming and harassing me! GREAT customer service. Just a winner across the board

We had a party of 4 who came by on a Friday night without reservations and was seated promptly. The space is gorgeous and the chairs were comfortable, a big plus. Our server was awesome and gave good explanations for the drinks. We had dinner earlier so we only wanted small plates since we came to drink. Everyone enjoyed their drinks, from the classic drinks to their signature cocktails. For food we had the bread and butter. The sweet butter was sooo good, I could eat that by itself. We also shared Brussels which were nicely crispy but could've used some salt. Overall, I'd actually give them a 31/2 rounded to 4 stars because the prices are a bit high for what you get. Brussels are a standard menu item, $17 is a bit pricey for what we got. There were other food items that interested us but again why so pricey? On top of that, there's an automatic 20% service charge (no matter your party size) which the server explained is split amongst everyone at the bar. He was great so we tipped additional. I wouldn't be in a rush to visit again but would go if someone else wanted to.

Popped in on a Saturday night and was very pleased with the service and quality of everything we ordered. Since we didn't have a reservation we sat at the bar, which is gorgeous bar by the way. The bartenders were all very attentive and they whipped up some delicious cocktails, my favorite being the Sweet Symphony. Also, get the meatballs, 10/10.
