Great cocktails, great ambiance. Newest back patio is fantastic. Also, I am a certified God at the ring game.

Turning into one of my favorite spots for an after work drink. Cocktails always executed perfectly, bartenders always friendly (shoutout to Jasmine, Shayne & Eileen), and free popcorn to munch on. They also have a great happy hour!

Great happy hour that runs every day from 5-7. Cold beer and fast service. When Eileen plays music it takes the bar to another level. Thank you !

A cozy cabin with a delightful patio and signature drinks that tie it all together! Despite the rush and limited staffing, drinks still came out quickly and to the highest quality.

Stopped by Sycamore Den for a quick drink, and I have to say, it didn’t disappoint. The vibe was laid-back with great music, and the place had just the right energy—not too loud, not too quiet. I started with a Whiskey Sour, which was perfect, and followed it up with a Wolf Ticket—smooth, easy to drink, and made just right. The bartender was on it, making sure my glass didn’t stay empty for long. It’s little touches like that that make a place stand out. If you’re looking for a spot with solid drinks and a chill atmosphere, Sycamore Den is worth a visit!

Updated for 2022: the pandemic didn’t touch this neighborhood gem. Still charming, old-fashioned but laid back bar. No dress code, low prices, and cheesy movies on the screen. An easy recommendation.

Love the vibe, it's cozy and retro with well priced drinks and a good happy hour. They sometimes have live music on the weekends (website says every Thursday but we were there on a Saturday night and they had a band playing.) The patio out back is great too!

Quant little bar with an old Western flare. Friendly upgrade service and a get DJ in the house in this night. Nice patio in back and I love the wallpaper in the bathroom. Very impressed with the quality of their popcorn. A must try.
