From the team behind Red Red Wine Bar, Brian and Lisa Bolter have created a modern industrial nod to that Prohibition history. DRY 85 is a back alley garage. A roughhewn space. A 21st century embrace of that outlaw culture created once congress did the unthinkable. Making the simple joy of drinking well … illegal. If the 18th Amendment was still the law of the land today, DRY 85 is where you would sneak a bourbon, beer or gourmet comfort food meal.

We popped in on an off-season Saturday as part of an afternoon Uber-crawl. We didn’t eat so can’t comment on the food. But if you are a whiskey 🥃 person then this place is for you. Huge selection of whiskeys to try. If you have a favorite, it’s likely here. If you want to explore something new then there are plenty of options. Vibe is cool as well. Rustic feel. They DO have non whiskey drink options as well. Some draft and cans and other spirits along with specialty drinks. 🍹 Enjoyed our stop and hope to get back to try the food. 😀

Food was very good. We had to give them a try and wasn’t disappointed. The beef short ribs were heavenly. They building is very nice and decor was cool. The location is very convenient and parking was good for the area. We will definitely go back again. They are seasonal so be sure to check the hours and dates online or call them. Greta place for food and drinks
