Josh Banfield
year agoAn amazing selection of cocktails from a knowledgeable pair of bartenders, grab some cocktails and explore the mansion and grounds. We came on a Friday and it was busy before the speakeasy opened downstairs at 9p, but after we went to the speakeasy we came back here for some cocktails. Come and grab a drink then go sit outside or in some of the small sitting rooms when you're visiting.

3 years agoLots of options to choose from in this nice little bar. The bartender was very helpful in suggesting and they offer daily cocktails and drinks that change every day. It is not pricy at all and the decoration is very cute. On top of that, the terrace offers seats by the fire and other places to enjoy the drinks. Only take is that it is not directly connected with the terrace, it would have been nice to have the bartender interact with customers more, as she was in the bar but there was no one inside!

9 months agoWe'd stopped in after a tour where we got to see the speakeasy (with a password needed to get in) in their basement - to check out the apothecary bar to get some food and drink. A very helpful bartender, explaining all their creative cocktails and answering questions. We ordered a flatbread pizza and a spinach artichoke dip as well as a couple of cocktails. They served us at a table where we sat on a couch in a room just across the hall and were very comfortable.

2 years agoThis has quickly become one of my favorite bars in Lake Geneva! Some of my group stopped here after my bridal shower in August, and I am so glad that we did! The ambiance is amazing and the drinks were just as fabulous. I love vintage decor and this place is like stepping into a different world. Now that my wedding craziness has concluded, I can't wait to come back!

2 years agoAwesome place! Excellent cocktails and mixologists! Picked a drink and they had run out of an ingredient so they suggested a replacement ingredient instead of just saying sorry can’t make it. Very happy with the experience and will be back when we come into Lake Geneva again.
The Stork Got Lost
3 years agoA definite must visit while in Lake Geneva area even more fun if you're there for Halloween. A beautiful hotel mansion with Parisian influences and a sprawling property with plenty of seating for both hotel guests and bargoers There are many fire circles on the premises that make it a great place to sit on a warm fall night and have a drink with friends. There are also several seating options for inside. I ordered the Wisconsin old-fashioned and was extremely pleased. Cocktails are well crafted and the ambiance was quite fun. A great place for a group date or a celebration with the ladies!!! Don't forget to check their Facebook and other social media pages for their best kept secret (not pictured.)
Kris Bruno

2 years agoHands down a MUST STOP & SEE! This bar is inside an old mansion that has been beautifully restored. It’s like stepping back in time. I walked around the lower level of the house staring in amazement at all the decor and furniture. The outside garden and pool area were beautiful and serene. I would love to book a stay here sometime but am so glad I checked out the bar. The brandy old fashions were delicious! And their selection of whiskeys is outstanding. Great service & beautiful atmosphere. #coolandunusualbars #uniqueplacestocheckout #beautifulbars #lakegeneva
