Waitman Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I don't pretend to the cocktail connoisseur status that many here have achieved, but I do enjoy a comfortable room and enthusiastic mixology, particularly if it's provided by a pair of frighteningly attractive bartenders. We finished off the fall, pumpkin-spiced cocktails the other night, went through a good bit of rye (which we all agreed is officially the hippest liquor around these days) and sampled the barrel-aged concoctions. Unsurprisingly, memories are a little blurred, but one strong impression is that Last Exit -- a semi-autonomous province of Tonic -- is under-patronized. I don't think their bartenders are quite up to the level of, say, a Derek or a Gina, but they're learning fast and clearly delight in the trade. If any of DR's cocktail snobs (Jake, Weinoo, xcanuck...) are willing to make the journey and give their impression, the first round is on me.

SeanMike Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Were you there last night? My co-blogger Marshall and his fiancee' were there, and their tweets about the drinks were making me jealous. (Though I was eating home cooked food and drinking beer while watching football with my brother and sister-in-law, so I was fine...I just need to get down there and visit Anthony and the crew.)

Friday night. There were no tweeters at the bar. Heck, almost no people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonRocks Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Last Exit closed with Tonic - it's now Habit Coffee Shop, owned by Purple Patch. (Thanks, GW) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
