The Velvet Elk

We stopped by after dinner at Mioposto. It is unique place and cool set up. I do like the painting. My friends wanted drinks after dinner. The bartenders were very attentive.

This is such a great neighborhood bar with a rather impressive run of cocktails that are familiar yet unique. The space is funky and has a great loungey area on the second floor. Cozy and good for small groups.

Found this place on Yelp and this is why I like to use Yelp, this place was unique, warm and friendly. The drinks were all very good, would highly recommend.

An outstanding little neighborhood bar. Welcoming to all. Drinks are unnecessarily pricey ($17.00 + tax for a single Tanqueray & Tonic).l

Decor - Funky, unique, and inspired. Drinks - Funky, unique, and inspired. Staff - Funky, unique, and inspired. This is a place where you feel at home dressed-up or in short and a tank top. ... Selfishly, I hesitate to write a review of this place given I want to be able to get a seat whenever I'm craving a nice drink with a cute date. Ultimately, this is your reason to visit Mt. Baker.

This place is such a freak show of unique and chill staff cold drinks delicious little sides and it's somewhere between a West Sanderson movie and the Playboy mansion in suburb Seattle but I think this place only seats like 17 people.From a technical standpoint I've seen better artwork in a frat house but that's part of the appeal it's almost like they take themselves too seriously but it's all tongue-in-cheek but then you get this really delicious drink of alcohol and friendly staff and it kind of works really well.I will definitely be back here, we went next-door to get this pizza pie and 15 minutes later we were headed home to watch Saturday night live and have a fresh slice sof pizza

Would love to post a review of the place but my date and I were never granted entry.If the place is full, an employee will take your number and call you when there is an opening. I'm still waiting for that call. Perhaps we weren't the right color? Wrong gendered? Wrong clothed?

Neighborhood gem! I visited on a Friday night and it was pretty packed. The bartenders were warm and greeted me promptly. I love the vibe of this place. The lighting is a perfect match of calm and cool. Even the restroom has a selfie light mirror where you can snap your best photo. They have an upstairs area where you can hang out with a larger party. They also provide card games.I ordered a couple of cocktails and each one was delicious. They were reasonably priced and well made. As a heads up, they don't serve food but they let you bring food from other restaurants. Mioposto is next door so feel free to bring a pie over. Best bar in Mt. Baker hands down.

Drinks, ambiance, and service so good, I'd have my last supper here. But seriously, if you like a good whiskey flip, check theirs out.

I was excited to check this place out. The vibe looks like a super chic/funky living room. I love the style. I know I'm no longer a spring chicken, but the music volume was turned up 3 or 4 times in the almost 3 hours I spent there. That changes the vibe to more of a club kid space. The corn dog was good; spicier than I expected, as was the pimiento cheese, which made the aardvark sauce extraneous.
