Our Story
We’re your local contemporary casual cocktail lounge with chef-driven comfort food and the finest craft cocktails in town. We don’t take ourselves too seriously, but are keen on providing a slightly more elevated culinary experience than what you will find in the neighboring area. We share our beautiful patio with our sister restaurant—Lake Tahoe AleWorX, which opened in the spring of 2017 and serves a delicious wood fired food menu coupled with a self-serve craft beer concept that is truly one of a kind. And most recently, we are excited to announce an expansion for the Cocktail Corner with the addition of the Lounge. The lounge offers additional casual indoor dining with several TV’s and a large 10’ projector screen where you can expect to enjoy the next big game! Our goal is to be an all-encompassing culinary matrix of compliments for our local community and visitors to enjoy–with an unparalleled ambiance. Between the compliments of both the Cocktail Corner and Lake Tahoe AleWorX you can enjoy your food and drink in our dining areas or out on the expansive patio where we feature live music and entertainment regularly.
Our Drinks
We locally source beer, wine, produce and feature handcrafted cocktails made by our expert bartenders. Our cocktails range from the classics to contemporary and modern style mixes that might surprise you. Our specialty cocktail list will rotate seasonally so make sure to try out our new seasonal specials. Don’t hesitate to challenge our experienced bartenders as they are always excited to make you a drink that’s authentic and tailored just for you!
OUR FOOD
Our menu is the brainchild of Chef Sean Underwood and carries an elevated comfort food assortment of dishes. As you explore our menu, you will see that we offer menu items that you might like individually while simultaneously offering shareable items that invite your whole party to enjoy while sipping on a refreshing specialty cocktail. Our menu will rotate from time to time and you can expect unique specials regularly to keep everything exciting for our locals and visitors alike. When you’re with us, you’ll be sure to eat well.
