Green Room — Restaurant in Northampton

While visiting town for a wedding, I was at another establishment that referred me to The Green Room saying it was a 'prohibition style speakeasy' and a 'whisky bar.'

Once I arrived, I struggled to find the connection between The Green Room and any speakeasy I've been to. The door is well marked on a side street, the walls are straight painted drywall, and the décor, nothing prohibition style. It was nice and welcoming, but not what i expected.

The bar... they did have a fairly good whisky menu. In addition, the bartenders were friendly to talk to and we're willing to chat a little and come up with a creative, crafty cocktail to suite the occasion.

We love going here! For creative and classic cocktails, this is the best place in or near Northampton. The bartenders are friendly and very knowledgeable. They frequently update their menu of bespoke creations that offer something for almost any taste.

If instead you have an old favorite, they have you covered. Not sure what you want? They can invent something on the spot based on your preferences!

The atmosphere is superb, with tasteful lighting. They show a variety of well-chosen videos running silently above the bar. It's not a sports bar - it's a place where you can enjoy conversation, whether at the bar itself or at one of the private tables.

Accordingly, it attracts a pleasant variety of people. Even people who visit on their own seem to be...

The Green Room is a local cocktail bar located just off the main downtown street. The cocktails: The bar tenders really know their stuff. 4.5/5 The interactions: Sadly, our drink maker had poor social skills. It surprised me given the Green Room's local reputation. Maybe he was just having an off night, but interacting with customers is important for this type of bar. 2/5 The atmosphere: The atmosphere is very important for a cocktail bar, and it was a little confusing here. The lighting was dim and general feel was that of an upscale cocktail bar. However, the music didn't fit the look and it was quite loud. 3/5 The cocktails were ~$10 to $15, which is about right fit the quality...
