If you are not as peckish, Tuesday is the night to be there. All-night happy hour is something Barbaro brings around every summer, and it is well worth it. The wonderfully large cocktail menu featuring drinks that are, “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly,” created by Elizabeth Forsythe, leaves you with enough options to quench any flavor profile you are looking for. There are even some delicious dessert cocktails, as well as old-fashioned fizz and adult soda shoppe beverages, to indulge in.

I’ve been into Barbaro on two separate occasions, once on a Monday to take advantage of the $10 pie night. During my visit there I had the pleasure of speaking with the bar manager about her beverage program, and all the thought that goes into her drinks. During this visit I sipped on the No Sugar, No Cream cocktail located on “The Ugly” side of the menu, which features boozier drinks than it’s “The Good” and “The Bad” counterparts.

The drink was wonderfully built, and true to it’s name it was a nice boozy, coffee based drink that combined both my admiration for Black Coffee and my love for liquor, a dangerous combination for sure.

My next visit was on a Tuesday, for the all night happy hour special. I stared at the menu for a few moments, debating whether I wanted to sample a new drink; or go with the cocktail that I had fell in love with on my first visit

I decided, based off a recommendation from another patron, to be adventurous and go with the Colonel Mustard. This is where Forsythe’s genius comes into play. She makes a savory, yet delightfully fun and sweet cocktail. Every flavor profile you can think of comes into play with this delicious concoction, which is topped with a pretzel, just to add more fun to the drink.
