We stopped in and split a Not Just a Burger. We are still talking about this burger!! Days later!! Should have had my own AND the french fries are like no other fries I’ve ever had. Also my two drinks were made perfectly whenever I visit Camden again… planning a visit here for sure.

Wowza craft cocktails, excellent food and service. Cozy space. But the view from the rooftop bar at 16 Bay View Hotel is truly spectacular. Don't miss it!

Found this place by the sidewalk sign outside advertising "Happy Hour". Absolutely a gem. Welcomes you the moment you walk in. The food and cocktails were incredible. We both had salmon and shared a cheese board. My favorite cocktail was The Cats Pajamas. Was made to perfection. I highly recommend this place for Happy Hour. $5 off cocktails. People were ordering popcorn and it was served with a tray of salt shakers (salt/vinegar, butter, etc). You will be impressed. Small but mighty

Simply delicious signature cocktail menu, wonderful bites of food and shareables to go with them. Id highly recommend the “Not just a burger”. Gotta get there for the great happy hour deals 5-7pm! Another place with a top tier playlist to set the mood of the room.

The Vintage room is a hidden gem that feels like an authentic speakeasy style bar. The cocktail menu compares to anything you will find in high end luxury hotels but with a focus on innovative ingredients. The bar itself is brick lined with vintage fixtures creating an alluring vibe. Philip really created magic with the cocktails on our visit and great conversation. Highly recommended!

Ordered the smash burger, carrots and mushrooms arancini (on the special menu). Mushroom Arancini was the star of the show.
