BEST cocktails I have had in NOVA. I went on "Experimental Wednesday" and have rarely been so impressed by a bar's creative mixology, not to mention the craft skill put into the presentation. Considering how small and intimate the space is, they've done an amazing job adhering to COVID-19 health standards. I sadly never went before quarantine so I can't speak to the "normal" atmosphere of the place but as it is now, it is a mellow, mysterious spot perfect for an intimate evening. The theming is unique and whimsical. In case you haven't studied their website yet, the name is taken from the mythic inventor of the donut, a sea captain who stuck his mother's sweet roll on one of the spokes of the ship's wheel so he could stay on course and eat, creating the iconic pastry shape. They even serve donuts on the small plate menu! This is an amazing find (quite literally- my date and I wandered around the dark and empty Elizabeth's Counter for a couple minutes before finding the secret flag doorbell, which made it all the more electric when the wooden wall slid open).

We visited this speakeasy for our 10 year wedding anniversary. I didn’t tell my husband before hand and he was surprised to say the least! The drinks are so tasty and strong. The service was top notch, they even set up champagne toast for us before we got there! Our server answered all of our questions and talked to us for a bit. So nice and very knowledgeable. All staff wore masks, tables were spaced out and they had some sort of uv filter in the restaurant so we felt very safe. If I had to pick a flaw it was the corn nuts - you can get a huge bag for $1 so I wouldn’t recommend those but we had the crab hush puppies and the pork belly, both very good. We enjoyed the cocktails more than the food which was the point anyway! Definitely would recommend a visit and we’ll be back for sure.

As always, Captain Gregory's is a true date night treat... even in the midst of a pandemic, they manage to keep the atmosphere, mood, and drinks on point just with fewer tables making it even more moody! We always come for the drinks, but the doughnuts are a treat. With Elizabeth's Counter being next door now, we were worried our fav snack would be either gone or taste different. Happy to report that everything is still on point! Thanks for a great time CG! We'll be back!

The service was fabulous. Attentive and personal yet very relaxed and casual. We will return again as the cocktails were amazing. The food was very good although it was not enough to be a meal. We will be back again for drinks and some snacking. A strong recommendation and a must try.
