    Very cool spot from the owners of Attaboy. Tiki inspired cocktails, a great yard, and plenty of space inside and out for hanging out with friends.

    If you're looking for some killer beverages for $12 a pop then this place is fucking brilliant. Order a Back Stop for a strong, old fashioned with coffee. Showstopper for me was the Old Firm.

    Great neighborhood bar. The space is huge, and the drinks are pretty good. Try the peni-chillin. Definitely going to become a regular spot.

    Lovely, roomy cocktail bar right on Atlantic with a great ambience, ample seating and a delicious drinks menu. Great bar for meeting up with friends and/or drinking outside.

    Great bar on an unsuspecting block. Huge outdoor space that's perfect for groups. Food truck cooks up grilled skewers. Frozen drinks are small but pack a punch.

    This bar has a really cute interior and has some outside space, which will be perfect for the summer. I really loved the Fire Drill (has passion fruit) and the Penichillin cocktails.

    I could drink penichillins all night long—although 2-3 is probably enough, 😉. As far as house slushies go, it's tippity top notch.

    Nice cocktails and knowledgeable bartenders. I also love the big open patio in the back where you can get elote and other grilled snacks from a food truck.

    The mexican grill in the backyard was super! Especially recommend the mexican corn and shrimps. Also the Zapp's voodoo chips was amazing! The atmosphere was relaxed in a positive way.

    A great addition to the neighborhood. The atmosphere is chill and inviting, the music was fantastic when I was there. I loved the cocktails. Beers come in a frosty mug!

    Great tiki cocktails – including a frozen Penicillin – from the Attaboy team with a huge outdoor space.

    Love the outdoor space! Don't order food from the food truck unless you want to spend $$ for the tiniest portion in the world.

    whatever is frozen will be the best thing, the food menu is surprisingly upscale given the concept but really nice

    The Penichillin slushy will keep you tipsy. It’s pricey, but the heavy whisky content makes up for it

    The Penichillin is the star of the show, but a Presidente in a frosted mug isn't a bad look either

    Super weird location and the bartenders were all like brainwashed ken dolls? Bad vibes, overall.

    Don't let the diminutive stature of the penichillin fool you. It'll fuck you up.

    Don't bother with the food. Tiny and way expensive. Fine for just drinks though.

    I'm a bit biased because I feel like they ripped off my favorite King Tai, but this place feels overhyped. It's just so empty and cavernous. Maybe the backyard will pick up when the weather is warmer.

    Loud and busy spot with a big backyard. Peeps dig those frozen drinks. Recommend the Plant Thief
