Riley from The Rose

They make the best espresso martini I’ve ever had, the vibe is cool, and the waiter was pretty attentive despite it being busy. Definitely a good place to hit up when in Jackson!

Seems to be under new ownership as of June 2023; we were the first to see their full menu! Mark talked with me a few minutes to find the right sip for me. Our House Old Fashioned and Gin de Vine were tasty, but it was a bit warm in the bar for us to enjoy another round. Looks like a cool place with lots of room, music videos playing on the TVs, and I think a spot for live music as well.

Sort of sketchy vibe. A bouncer was monitoring people going in and out of the bathroom. I’ve never seen that before which to me was indicative of this place drawing a rough crowd or something odd..? I value safety but the amount of security at this small-medium sized bar seemed a bit strange… Regardless, it was nice to find a place that was open later as most establishments around town seemed to close on the earlier side.

We had a great Old Fashioned at the Rose. Friendly bartender and good music. Changed my mind in one sip! And the cheapest Craft cocktail you will find in JH.

What a blast this place was. Really fun people to be with. This is a bartenders bar. Bartender was very knowledgeable and they specialize in special drinks like Manhattan’s. A number of very good sweet vermouth’s to choose from. Come here for a great non-cowboy experience. Not that there’s anything wrong with that! (Seinfeld) With tip, we spent about $100 for two but we drank quite a few special drinks! LOL Didn’t have food, so no rating
