Midgley’s bar is where classic cocktails meet playful innovation. Whether you’re sipping on a Sazerac or a Manhattan, their expertly crafted standards don’t miss.

The bar at Papapavlo’s brings a mix of cocktails that go well beyond the basics! Try their Smoked Maple Old Fashioned for something deep and warming, or the Love Me or Lychee Me for something that’s refreshing and easy to sip. For a little fire, go with Fire Island, a spicy, citrusy mix with habanero and Tajín, or settle into something classic like the Papatini. They also offer a nectar sangria, mocktails, and a solid beer and wine lineup with plenty of local and Napa names. Whether you’re just starting the night or settling in, it’s a great place to explore something new in your glass.
The cocktail list at Prime Table leans classic with a polished twist. Their PT Martini lets you choose your base, topped with Point Reyes blue cheese olives.

For something more relaxed, enjoy their well curated wine list and broad beer selection. Whether you’re seated at the bar or staying for dinner, drinks here feel elevated without being overdone.
