Cocktails, no food.Holiday time is decked out and so festive. So many colors, wonderful for pics! Sit anywhere. No server, so order for yourself and bar and bring to your table. Beer wine availableEvent space available such as the upstairs called "the perch" with its own bar. Email business for more details.

Convenient, themed, and lively bar! Stopped by for the christmas pop up bar, and it was a v jolly time Nice upstairs and downstairs seating! Very chill, drinks are more classics and not as experimental, no wait, and didn't have to wait in cold unlike PCH which was a win!

Heard how cool this place was. Showed up and the hostess was extremely rude to us. Told us we couldn't come in said there was no room even though people were leaving.Merriest Bar? Give me a break more like Bitter Betty Bar.Don't waste your time on this place

I stumbled upon this bar when I was walking to a dinner spot, and this place had a Christmas pop up called "The Merriest Bar". My friends & I went here on a Friday night around 8:30pm and it wasn't too crowded yet. But at 9pm, it got really crowded.The decorations was super pretty! There's a bar upstairs and downstairs. There was only one bartender that worked at the upstairs bar and service was a bit slow and the drinks were okay. I thought the stocking stuffer shot was better than the Christmas cocktails itself. Nonetheless, it was still a good time and this bar is pretty close to Montgomery Bart!

Came here for the Merriest Bar Christmas pop up and loved the cute holiday decor and specialty drinks they have. The ambiance is great for the holiday season and the drinks were solid but felt a little heavy with cream and sweet liquor so do be aware of that. It wasn't too crowded when we went around 10pm on a Saturday night but I did see it get busier as the night went on. The location is a bit further out from other bars so luckily it doesn't get as busy here as other Christmas bars.

This bar is really clean and the vibes are chill. I really like the changing colours and disco theme. I went here to pregame before Subtronics' performance at the Civic Center because my friend was DJ'ing here.Its a great place to meet up with friends.

Came here for a friend's birthday party and she had reserved the upstairs section for her gathering (cutely called "The Perch" - very fitting to the theme). Sarah (with or without an H) was our bartender for the night and she was absolutely fantastic. I had a pretty large meal prior to coming to the party so I wasn't really up for drinking anything but she made a ginger spritz for me which was so thoughtful of her. It was delicious, refreshing, and just what I needed. There's no food sold at the Nightingale Bar so it is recommended that you eat before you come. The vibes of that place is great and the decorations on both floors are beautiful.

This is a really pretty bar and extremely Insta-ready (honestly not my favorite vibe, but ymmv). It's sort of a fancy tiki look with lots of palms, animals, and plenty of neon. We came on a really quiet night and it ended up being a cool spot to hang and chat.The drinks were solid and service was good. They were mostly slight twists on easygoing classics. Drinks were good, but it would be interesting to see something more experimental.

Run far away from this place!!! unless you like shitty customer service and subpar cocktails.To be fair, the ambience was decent but nothing special. Unfortunately the bartenders (both white) weren't too friendly. I tipped them a bit and they had the audacity to complain that it was a "shitty" amount. I guess they thought they deserved a 25% tip for doing the bare minimum? Maybe they considered pouring a shot of alcohol and soda white glove service? Should've tipped them $0 if I could go back. If that's how much they rely on tips, maybe it's time to consider a 2nd job. Entitled and bitter... pick a struggle

bartender was rude to us, making comments about our groups IDs ?? we wanted to order this drink in a disco bowl but they didn't have the bowls ? seems like they just didn't want to make that drink for us. they had these bird lights and bar tender went out her way from the bar to tells us not to "fucking" touch them (we were sitting in the back corner too btw) this place was not even a vibe not surprised it was dead on a Saturday night.decor was decent but decorum was not there
