XIX Cocktails


Pam Bower - XIX General Manager


As we move into an advanced technology phase at XIX, bare with me as I try out my new blogging skills! For my first posting I wanted to let you in on a little secret…XIX is the best bar in the city! In addition to creative cocktails and a tasty bar menu, we have a great staff of bartenders and cocktail servers that really make XIX what it is.

Over the past year, we have had a renovation in the XIX bar that allowed us to open it up and offer a great view. Three huge windows run the length of the bar, with warm sunsets and sexy martinis in hand...why go anywhere else! We have worked hard to create a unique and tasty drink menu that matches the vibe and the atmosphere of the room. We have experimented with infusions, put unique twists on classics and kept many of the popular martinis that everyone enjoys so much. As the menu started to take on a life of its own, we have felt our guests’ excitement for new cocktails or their sorrow for the loss of a favorite. Have no fear - we will always be able to make the Cucumber Mint Gimlet! This summer we have been mixing up some fresh sangrias, pineapple mojitos and a summer favorite - the Mango Mojito! Of course all 12 of our specialty cocktails are half price during our weekday Happy Hour…Just $6, Monday through Friday, 5-7pm.

We are already looking forward to Fall and playing around with seasonal inspirations. If you are in the bar and are up for being a guinea pig, let me know! I always enjoy a new taste tester!

Cheers!
