Loggerhead

Tucked behind a nondescript steel door in a city-center courtyard, Loggerhead is the kind of bar that makes its entrance a ritual and its drinks a spectacle. Drawn from the name of a traditional iron tool once used to dissolve sugar, the bar pays homage to mixology’s roots with an atmosphere steeped in both history and hush. One of these vintage loggerhead tools—dating back to the mid‑18th century—awaits curious guests who ask, adding a touch of alchemical charm to the surroundings. Inside, exposed brick arches curve overhead, warm amber lighting reveals centuries-old masonry, and the centerpiece—a three-sided contact bar—invites guests into a shared experience of craft and camaraderie. Jazz sets a soundtrack, the crowd gathers in low booths or at the bar, and bartenders pour cocktails that shimmer—literally—sometimes garnished with gold flakes or served with backstories and theater, justifying the whispered legend that Loggerhead might be the most magical bar in the world. Reservations are strongly recommended. Despite the concealed entrance and secretive feel, Loggerhead has become well-known—and beloved—for its captivating décor, charming service, and drinks tailored for both the palette and the imagination. It’s an experience wrapped in intrigue—perfect for those who seek more than just a drink, but an evening story.
