From the moment we walked up to Rocks & Drams, we were met with a huge welcome and smile from Virginia! Axel our waiter was amazing! He knew the menu and guided us through every option and question! He was so patient! Mark, the owner came by to check on us and also handled a situation for us with respect and grace! ... Rocks & Drams was such a vibe, menu and concept is genius and I can’t wait to come back and visit! Thank you Mark for everything! Read More

Rocks & Drams is a super chill lounge that has a comfortable atmosphere, serving up unique drinks and food that is complex in flavor with elegant presentation. They have a live DJ booth spinning vinyl, adding to the chill vibes. The owner really pays attention to details and the seasonal adjustments to the menu make ... it worth frequent visits! This is an ideal lounge for more enjoyable relaxing with friends as the seating is super comfy. This place gets busy so be sure to get there earlier than planned to secure your seats! Read More
