    What makes it fun

    Want a date night spot that’s as smooth as a well-aged cocktail? You need Midnight Rambler, where the lighting is low, the drinks are high, and the vibes are flirtatiously sophisticated. Tucked beneath The Joule Hotel, Midnight Rambler is a subterranean cocktail lounge with just the right whisper of secrecy. With a moody glow, curved ceilings, and a mirrored back bar that glimmers like it’s flirting back at you, the ambiance is tailor-made for romantic chemistry. The cocktail menu is gorgeous. It features inventive creations that twist classics into something memorable. The lounge weaves together discrete seating pockets and two bars so you can cozy up without feeling exposed. Grab a couple of cocktails, slide into a cozy corner, and cuddle up and sip the night away with your sweetheart.

    My wife and I popped into this spot randomly after seeing a concert and we are so happy that we did! It was such a quaint atmosphere and layout inside with the most awesome Pokemon themed menu and experience, we ordered several great drinks and when my wife didn’t love one of them they immediately made it right with something else. Jade was especially awesome, treating us like old friends and taking the time to care about our entire experience. We loved this place and will definitely be back! Thanks 🙏🏼

    Jade was incredible. We were welcomed into the building by a gentleman holding the door open for us. Then we were greeted by the host, who politely guided us into the entrance and wished us a great night. When we sat down, you could tell everyone was enjoying themselves and being served promptly. Our server, Jade, was the epitome of customer service and kindness. It was clear that she wanted our business. 5 star establishment without a doubt.

    We stopped here for an adult beverage when looking for a dark and quiet bar to celebrate a friend. This place has a great crowd, it was more focused on people in groups with conversation, and singles at the bar. We loved it, definitely not a party vibe (which we are aged out of). The bartender and our waiter were so nice and helpful on the recommendations. We didn’t get the cute Pokémon cards with our drinks, but the drinks were great and had an awesome presentation. The bar is down a set of stairs so be careful if wearing heels. They also closed an hour early for some reason, which was a bummer. However, we would definitely be back if looking for a late night stop!

    Great service! Our server didn’t share his name, but he was super attentive and made great recommendations! I hadn’t been here in a while! Cool Pokémon theme. We only came for drinks. They were good.

    Dark, cozy cocktail bar with a fun seasonal menu and delicious drinks. The wait staff were caring and helpful. When we went there was a creative pokemon adjacent menu theme, and I enjoyed my unusual corn flavored drink.
