Uptown Bourbon

“I really enjoyed Uptown Bourbon. I went after a date and it ended up being the perfect spot to end a relaxed night out. The vibe is cozy and intimate without feeling stuffy. The service was friendly, the bartender was lovely and even let us sit and be served at a small table although they were crowded. I had a glass of rose wine and it was great and poured generously. I would definitely come back.”

“I love this hidden gem but was sadly disappointed in my recent visit. Imagine enjoying your cocktails when the bartender comes over mid sip to tell you that you have to leave. I asked him why and I got NO answer. I chose to quickly finish my drink and left. Before I left and paid my tab, I was informed my seat met left and did not pay his. I kindly agreed to pay for that drink. Its ridiculous the bartender let him leave and not pay for his drink. I didn't even get a thank you for doing that. Just rude. I also recall on ny recent visit a patron told me how the bartender asked him to leave weeks prior. I also want to point out that this is person is black just like myself. Its unsettling to think a white male bartender has done with to someone else who looks like me. This is Harlem a historically BLACK cultured neighborhood. Keep your underlined racism out of our neighborhood.”

“Uptown bourbon is a nice chill spot that spin classic records which we rarely see anymore. Depending on the day you go, the staff is extremely humble and nice and makes some great drinks. But when the place gets busy it can be a tight squeeze, smartest move to to get to the table near the window and bathroom and hold it down. First come first chair, One day I went I was hanging with the Wrong kind of people and they spiked my drink, the bartender didn't know an thought I was being weird yelling and stuff, but I was actually drugged and would never do such a thing. Watch your drink in these dark places. Have your bartender know your stepping away. I wasn't so lucky That day. This was my go to spot for the best Evan Williams and ginger. Or they would make a really nice signature drink. I almost tried every drink on the menu. We shall see whats next. Be safe out there Cheers .”
