Spent Valentine’s at Bar Francis and I’m so glad my partner planned this! Frank was our server and he honestly raised the bar for every server I will ever interact with in the future - He had phenomenal recommendations (tailored down to how to pair the oysters with the right combination of sauces). He knows the menu so very well + so very genuinely personable and perceptive 🙂 In terms of drinks - do not miss the the ‘I know it when I see it’, ‘Stop Bidding on my Waffle Iron’, ‘Call it Cosy Please’. The dozen our oysters are amazing with the house sauces 🙂 10/10 spot!

I love coming here. The staff is always so personable. I always feel welcomed in this space. The bartenders are always extremely attentive and they make a great espresso martini. I tried the hummus the last time I went and really enjoyed it. I will definitely be back.

I’m not sure what my favorite part was because our entire time here was so well spent. I loved how gorgeous & luxurious the interior was, the well crafted beverage program & the music. Not once did it feel pretentious or snobby. If you don’t know what punt-a-mes is the bartender, Will, would happily walk you through any of the spirits and cocktails they offer or even make you an outstanding rendition of whatever it is you’re looking for. Perfectly priced for what you’re getting. There is something here for everyone. Thank you.

Tucked away behind a coffee shop, Bar Francis offers an amazing experience. Our waiter Frank was knowledgeable, kind, and friendly. The drinks are unique, strong, and packed with flavor. The oysters and the hummus were divine. I will be back!

We have been meaning to come here for over two years now since they first opened. We always love ourselves as speakeasy cocktail bar. The service was nothing short of amazing. The spirit selection varied a lot. We were actually shot at how many bottles they carried. A lot of them aren’t regularly seen. The bartender was super knowledgeable and friendly. We grabbed two seats at the bar. And the drinks were very pleasant. Would be happy to come back and try out a few more of their cocktails.

Hidden gem. Don’t let the coffee shop entrance fool you. Great chill vibe. And even better cocktails. Will and Laurel at the bar are awesome. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely get a cocktail with Will’s signature pickled (yes pickled!) olives.
