The team here is super dedicated to making sure you have a good time, and you and your guests are well taken care of. The venue is intimate for late evenings and the outdoor patio especially shines in the summer. We hosted an amateur drag night here, and invited guests outside our party to participate and enjoy the show, and the crew made sure we had plentiful space and everything went off smoothly and on time. Our group of at least 25-30 people had no problem fitting on the patio, and our 6 performers were able to sashay around the entire space. Super welcoming place for people of all stripes. Makers pizza can be ordered through the bar, and brought directly to your table, and the people watching is thoroughly enjoyable.

Great place for drinks, and pizza (from nearby Maker Pizza). Cozy bar area with high ceilings, fireplace, comfy seating, and quick friendly service. Neighborhood Gem, thank you!

This is a great location to host a private party. I held my birthday party here this year and they helped me make a flyer for the event, provided DJ options, and allowed me to decorate. I was able to order Maker Pizza and cupcakes for the party. I had a blast. Bartenders were wonderful and everyone had fun. 10/10 recommend this local bar to host a private party. Thanks Guys! Andy.

I recently hosted a private event at The Garden Bar & Bodega with a friend to celebrate our birthdays, and it was an amazing experience! This was my second time attending a private event here, but my first hosting my own, and once again, they exceeded expectations. The team worked with us to create a custom drink special for the evening and were incredibly helpful with all the details for our cake and food. Everyone had a fantastic time, and the atmosphere was perfect for our celebration. I highly recommend The Garden Bar & Bodega for anyone planning an event or party—you won’t be disappointed!

I had my birthday celebration here twice at The Garden Bar and Bodega and they did not disappoint! The staff had catered to my every request in which they assured my experience be an exceptional one! I highly recommend your next private function to be held here because you will have an amazing down to earth experience which will make you consider future bookings respectfully! Keep up the amazing work Thomas, Lukey and staff! 👍🏽👍🏽 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The service was very underwhelming. Nobody seated us for quite a while even though 2 servers walked past us multiple times. When we finally seated ourselves, we had to wait a while to be told that there were no menus and the QR code on the table did not work either. We saw people get a physical copy of the menu. Our table was never cleared, even though we had requested multiple times for it to be cleared. There were used lemons and shot glasses on the table left by other patrons. The service was also extremely slow and we had to leave the place because of the pace.

Garden Bar & Bodega is a delightful spot! The tasty sandwiches and coffee are a must-try. Special shout-out to America, the young and friendly manager who adds a welcoming touch to the atmosphere. Thanks for making it a great experience!
