Awesome spot to grab a great drink. The bartenders are certainly passionate about their craft. The Big in Japan was the best old fashioned I’ve ever had. Incredibly smooth! Their espresso martini (third wave) was fantastic as well. Looking forward to going back.
What a great new addition to Amherst! Love the theme of it. Finding the place was fun, and the atmosphere inside is so cozy. Definitely recommend smaller groups, especially during peak times.
Drinks can be a on the pricier side, but reasonable. All of the cocktails I've tried were absolutely delicious. They have a small selection of awesome snacks as well.
Staff is really friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend checking this place out.
One of my favorite cocktail spots, offering a perfect blend of ambiance and flavor. I’m always delighted by each season’s new menu.
Love love love this speakeasy! It took us a minute to find it, luckily a nice young man helped us decipher how to enter this gem of a place! So fun, like going on a treasure hunt! Beautiful, cozy space, with cocktails that delight the senses especially the palate! Service is stellar and mixologists are top notch!
Awesome experience. This new bar in Amherst has a really fun atmosphere and excellent drinks. It was an amazing getaway from the typical college bar experience as well. I think this location though is best for groups of 5 (~ish) or less since there is mainly bar seating with the exception of a couple booths and benches available.
I adore the Archives! Definitely one of the best mixology places in the Pioneer Valley. Classic and original cocktails are VERY well prepared. The speakeasy entry and old basement environment are very cool and surprisingly comfortable. I regularly drive half an hour out of my way to visit.
You want to go to a great speak easy in Amherst? Look no further, this place has great drinks and they're not the run of the mill garbage you drink at a local bar. They carry only the finest bottles! They serve many types of martinis and special house drinks that will knock your socks off. There's one catch.... you have to find it. There's a few clues to find this place. Don't ask anyone exactly where it is, it'll take the fun out of it. We found it in 20 minutes after figuring out how to..... I said too much.... this is a speak easy like the prohibition times, you'll find the secret way to get in.
If you’re looking for an enjoyable experience with wonderful company in an intimate setting then the Archives is the place to be. I tried the Bijou Blanc and it was very strong. The orchard blossom was well made and delicious. This place does get pricey as I am from south Florida and the prices were comparable but for a town like Amherst, it’s overpriced.
