Best bar we went to while in the area. Bar seating is best - nice staff & clean bathrooms

This place is so cool Bartenders are very friendly , food was ok You need more onion in the onion soup , I will comeback to try more item from the menu , expresso brûlée was awesome

We reserved a private room for a birthday dinner with friends, we had the best server that checked on us frequently. There was so many fun drinks to choose from and their food is pretty good. It was some nice spooky vibes. Def recommend

I came to the cauldron on a night that was pirate themed. It took some time to get in but what made the wait better was the "Purgatory Patio" just outside the front door. The drinks were strong and the vibe was spooky even though it was still September. We ordered a few snackies: the pretzel bites (delicious), the tartare (very rich), the shrimp wrapped in prosciutto (surprisingly, the flavors complemented one another) and the clam chowder (tasty). I also tried a few of their cocktails. The decor is amazing inside and perfect for those who love fall / Halloween / everything spooky and fun. My only suggestion is that the drink presentation should match the effort going into the restaurant's presentation. All they need is a spooky cup or a little extra flare put into the drinks. They were tasty, but it seemed like a bit of a lost pportunity. I will definitely be back!

I came here on a Sunday night with two other friends as a pre-Halloween celebration dinner - the atmosphere was very fun and mildly spooky. We were unfortunately seated right next to the door so I couldn't see too much of the place. Our servers were very personable and helped make recommendations/answer any questions we had about the menu. The steak bites were pretty oily but flavorful, and I enjoyed the dead and berried cocktail (huge fan of fruit flavors. I would say that I didn't particularly enjoy the bacon jam too much - it was fairly sweet, which I felt was weird with fries. I also didn't like the chocolate crepe as much as I thought I would - the ratio of nuts to crepe was really high, which made me lose focus of the chocolate flavor. My friends reportedly enjoyed the stew, French onion soup, and olives. I would be very happy to come here again next Halloween or some other season to see what other seasonal items are available.

Honest Review! I'm picky when it comes to a chill and nice bar to hang out at. Yet The Cauldron marks off all of the boxes that I look for! The staff is always sooo nice and friendly. Drinks are delicious. The vibes are IMMACULATE! We stopped in right before Halloween and the place was busy yet super cute. People were dressed up and the staff was super nice. We got sat at a table in their "green room" and our server recommended some drinks to us which were all soooo delicious! We ended up getting some food as well to try. The pretzel and cheese was super good, we devoured them. The garlic fries were good but honestly similar to Red Robin's. For our anniversary we decided it'd be cute to stop back in for a late night drink. We weren't let down!! We got the Roses BTS and the Witches Brew. They were DELICIOUS! The Roses BTS taste just like strawberry lemonade! I was questioning the alcohol in it until i had 2 and they both hit me at once (lmao). The staff again is super friendly and sooo nice! We had a table offer us a drink and the server ended up chatting with us until we ordered another round. The entire ambiance of this place is amazing and I highly recommend stopping by for a date night or just a hang out!! They're LGBTQ+ friendly and extremely welcoming to all! 10/10 and will fore sure be back!

Great service, ambiance, and decor. A must for fans of Halloween and all things spooky.

Definitely get there before the super busy times, I'm talking about Friday and weekend nights. My friend and I got here early 5 PM and there was a slight wait to get in, around 30 minutes, which isn't too bad, but it definitely ramped up quickly throughout the evening and it didn't help that it was raining outside and people wanted to get into the walk up bar ordering area. There is a 90-minute wait limit for the tables, so keep that in mind too and I guess that also applies to bar seating as well since we overheard a different guest become disgruntled by this and staff recommending coming right when they open during a weekday. Other than how busy it is the atmosphere of this place is great. Perfect if you ever want the spooky vibes throughout the year. I recommend following or checking out their Instagram if you want to see what the current seasonal limited dishes are and if there are any changes to their schedules or any events coming up. We had no idea there was a 10% discount rate for wearing a costume until we got there and saw it. There is spooky décor as far as the eye can see here from their menu, the bar which has projections of hellfire and other moving bits and pieces, the hanging bats and bones, their fireplace with a "haunted" mirror on top, and so much more. One of the portraits is also a photobooth as well, so keep your eyes peeled! Another thing I would like to note is that this is a place to come and hang out with or without the spirits and maybe snack on something. Shareable finger foods at best, so make sure to get your main meal elsewhere. My friend and I got the: 1) Frites: -We asked for this with a side of ranch but if you want fancier sauces, it's $1 more. -They're thick cut fries with garlic parmesan bits on top. Comes out nice and crispy with a strong garlic taste. -Can never go wrong with a good order of fries. FRITES 2) Chicken Cordon Bleu Sliders: -Comes with 2 sliders and a couple of those cute mini pickles which I have never seen elsewhere. -They're 2 sliders with panko breaded fried chicken, ham, gruyere cheese, and mustard mornay sauce. -I'll be honest, the mustard sauce wasn't that flavorful so I had to put some of the ranch onto this slider, but I guess that's where the mini pickles came in (deliciously crunchy and not too sour). -The chicken was crispy enough on the outside and not dry on the inside. -Decent dish, though I think I'd try something else in the future. 3) Bread Pudding: -They do a seasonal rotation of their bread pudding and we got their candy Trick R Treat one which has peanut butter cups (I believe) and mini M&M's. Wish there was just a slight variety of depth to this bread pudding since it just tasted like chocolate bread after a few bites, but I can easily see it amping up a couple levels with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or some cookie butter. Maybe a different seasonal bread pudding would have hit home for me. And for my drink, I go the Dead and Berried which is a mocktail drink made of fresh blackberries, mint, lime, a simple syrup and soda water. It is a bit tart, so make sure you mix it throughout and slowly sip on it while eating the rest of your food. It is visually appealing and so was my friend's mocktail, The Upside Down, which she enjoyed. Our waters came out first in a timely manner and the rest of our meal came trickling in after, but I guess due to how busy it was, it took awhile for us to flag down a worker to get napkins and utensils, but no biggie. As we were getting ready to leave we overheard a waiter stating that the parties were up to 70-80 people (?!) which is mind boggling to me, but with the fact that it was raining, it was a Saturday, and it was the weekend right after Halloween, I can envision it. Keep in mind when you go and have a main meal planned later and you're 100% there for the atmosphere if anything!
