About this restaurant

Great for creative cocktails
Lively
Fancy

Positioned on the East Side Beltline trail, The James Room is a dark and moody cocktail lounge that is meant to be a place where you can leave your stresses at the door and immerse in the energetic vibrations of our cozy and intimate space. Upon entry, an upscale coffee shop takes your gaze. During the day, the cafe intriguingly offers unique flavors such as sea salt lavender and rosemary sage, or you can opt for a classic vanilla or caramel addition to your joe if you fancy. A few paces away is an inconspicuous door disguised as a bookcase, leading to the speakeasy area equipped with a peculiar mood. The atmosphere feels intimate yet communal and invokes a sense of leisure. The fine leathers and premium seating upgrade your typical lounge visit to an elevated, exclusive treat. Once you get settled, indulge in our savory light bites and carefully hand-crafted cocktail menu...and if you're lucky, maybe even the sounds of a DJ spinning some of your favorite hits.

The James Room offers an "excellent vibe," perfect for cozy date nights or gatherings. Delight in "yummy" manchego cheese and great non-alcoholic drinks. While some dishes may not suit all tastes, the "superior interior designing" and "great ambiance" make it a spot many are eager to visit again.

I love a good speakeasy. Cocktails were great. I didn’t eat so I can’t speak to the food this time. The music was a bit loud. I took a date there for a nightcap and we literally were yelling but were only 3 feet from each other. The music was cool, just waaaaaaaay too loud.

Came on a Wednesday evening. Great lighting and ambience for a cozy date night. The hostess was polite but only offered high table top seats that were a bit uncomfortable not sure how someone can sit there for a while two hours. We asked change to a couch and they said it was ok but it usually reserved for 3 or more people. So not rhetorical most comfortable date spot for two but overall I enjoyed myself. Very cute place, superior interior designing!

The ambiance is nice. I enjoyed the music, food, and drinks. We had a bad experience with the server bringing my friend a drink she didn't order and we were charged for an extra drink. But other than that we had a great time and I will go back

Everything was great aside from the pizza that had too much garlic, too much truffle oil, and too many sun-dried tomatoes
