Experience cocktail making at its finest by visiting this bar. I'd highly recommend the Pina Fizz. I don't know how they do it, but it came with a mass of small bubbles atop of the cocktail which had a distinctive and surprising popcorn taste! I appreciated their use of cloudless ice too. Accompanying ordered food was excellent as well. I'd highly recommend Grain, and look forward to visiting it again in the future.

The service was amazing. I made a last minute reservation for 17 people and when I showed up everything was perfect. We had a very successful night thanks to this location and the people taking care of us. Thank you Grain Bar!

Came here with a large group of around 25 people and it was amazing. The bar and Kitchen were very accessible where servers would either come to our tables or we could go to the bar to order individual drinks. The bartenders were very ecstatic, informative and entertaining. There is also a bathroom just outside the bar which is very convenient. The ambience and music was also very appropriate and chill with it not being too loud. Will be coming back here for more good times :)
