The Details on The Whistler

What to Drink:

The inspired cocktail list was created by Paul Mcgee, the former mixologist for Wolfgang Puck. Popular favorites include the over 250-year old American legend Sazerac, a blend of old rye whiskey, Peychaud's bitters and lemon essence, and the the Diablo, made with Chinaco Blanco Tequila, creme de cassis, and ginger beer.

Where to Sit:

The intimate bar induces conversation and congregation; plunk down here with your buddies for a thought-provoking discussion.
