Bouncers are incredibly rude and seem to be on a power trip. Went there the other night with my friends and were told our IDs were fake when we’re all more than the legal age and from New York. They even threatened to take and search through my friends wallet as if they’d have the authority to do so and then became aggressive toward him. To top it off they kept making rude remarks during the whole altercation. I’ve never been treated so poorly by employees at a bar, and can’t believe they’re even still open if they treat customers like this and can’t even tell a real ID from a fake one.
HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!! I went there the other day with a friend on a Saturday night. First we got two classic cocktails that were so sweet we already felt the hangover. When we asked for them to be fixed, the bartender asked me about paying for the previous two. They had charged me without having me sign anything!!!! Then proceeded to charge me again!! I waited 20 minutes to talk with a manager and then had to wait another 30 minutes for him to figure out what went wrong! After all that, I WAS STILL CHARGED!! I have never been so upset with a bar and that is coming from a bartender! Not worth it and the cocktails are poorly made!
I can not RAVE about Repeal enough!! We recently had our 30th reunion here and the owner, Mike, handled every last detail! We knew that everything would be perfect and it was! Our guests were so impressed with the ambiance and the friendliness of entire staff!!! We were in great hands! Repeal is an absolutely gorgeous venue to host your next event or to just hang out with a group of friends for a night of fantastic cocktails in a Huntington Village. It is THE place!!
Was looking for a location with nice ambiance to relax and not have to yell to have a conversation. Not only was my expectations met they were definitely exceeded.I had a great time and a great night. Very knowledgeable staff that answered all my questions and pointed me in the right direction with my indecisiveness on what to drink.Its a lounge with all the right ingredients for a really good time!!
1000% recommend! Awesome atmosphere and outstanding service. We booked a private event in the back room/outside area and the entire night was perfect and more than I could ever ask for!! A special shout out to the owner, Mike!!! He is amazing - extremely helpful, responsive and accommodating to make sure everyone had a great time. He made everything so easy and helped me through every step of planning the event. Such a cool guy. Also the bartender, Aaron was incredible - he made a point to introduce himself and remembered EVERYONES names and drink orders (for a group of 45 people!!). He would have everyones drink ready for them when he saw them walking up to the bar!! Everyone had an amazing time!! Thank you Mike!! We will definitely be back again soon.
I love this place. If you want to truly enjoy an experience of a crafted cocktail at a bar that has great bartenders and a great service this Is the place. I personally recommend Rich, he is one of the bartenders and he knows his drinks. He will tailor a drink for you if you get be here m.an idea of what you are looking for.If you want to do a shot of vodka, this isnt the place. But if you want drinks and a whole different experience.This is the place to be
Such a fun vibe! Mood lighting for sure. The furniture and decor is delightful, and gives the feel that youve time traveled back to the 1920s. There is seating at the bar, along the back wall, in the back with room for a dance floor, and then theres a back room with a pool table and partial outside area. The pool table was closed due to COVID(?) but it was enjoyable to be there nonetheless. The playlist is excellent!!
I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in. I was not expecting it to be so nice. I absolutely love the garden area in the back where there was brick oven pizza being made. The area with the televisions and the pool table was very nice as well. Raven the bartender was absolutely amazing, the rest of the staff is super friendly and kind. Very nice place with a super friendly owner that makes it a point to walk around and introduce himself and ask if everything is ok. I highly recommend this place.
Absolutely wonderful. The bartenders are knowledge and accommodating. I got lost in a conversation with both the bartender and the owner and I couldnt ask for a better bar. The atmosphere is chill and the drink menu is the best Ive seen, the speakeasy vibe is a nice touch. Cant say enough good things about this place, wish I loved in the area to come more regularly. Ask for John.
What a great spot and a great time! Stopped in for a cocktail, and glad we did. There is a lot going on and something for everyone. There are two rooms. An inside bar where people were dancing to a DJ, and playing games like Jenga. There is another room in the back which is outside, with another bar and a huge projection screen television. Someone was celebrating a private party in the back the night we were there, and everyone was having a great time. Plus, the owner was walking around, saying hello to people and making sure everything was running smoothly, which is always nice to see. Highly recommend Repeal!
I LOVE speakeasies and prohibition vibes and this is just that! On google it comes up at P&Qs but its actually Repeal. We went in not really knowing what to expect but were so happy we went!The place is MASSIVE - with a lounge, pool table + beer garden in the back! When you enter, you see small tables with like checker boards under the glass, and then the massive bar. Walking pass the bar, theres more space to sit and hang out, a swing and even a Photo Booth. Behind that is the lounge + garden.Now - the bartender John Kraft is an AMAZING bartender. We all had 3 different drinks from him - our first drink was off the menu then the next two were ones he thought of based on what we like. I started with the crusaders movement (vodka) and it was amazing. I think that may have been my favorite one but honestly they were all so freaking good I cant even tell you!The next one was their cucumber house vodka mixed with a lot of great things and if I remembered what was in it Id tell you - I think it was mixed with Violet de crem but I might be wrong.I dont even remember the last drinks name but I think he named it the scorpio cancer because Zodiacs duh! It had the orange botanical kettle vodka, lots of other great things, a spritz of rose water and garnished with orange peel and basil.Everything here is amazing and I say order what you like and also stay for a bit, and let John make you a speciality handkrafted cocktail (his last name is Kraft and Im trying to be witty)ALSO ALSO ALSOTheir Pineapple Chipotle Pepper infused Tequila is AMAZING. We took shots and didnt need any chasers. SO freaking good!

2022-02-07Such a fun cocktail bar. Went on a Friday and enjoyed each second. The band was great and the drinks were superb. Shout out to the bartender, Aaron - he is a master of his craft. Had so many fun drinks, including “Giggle Juice” that came with an edible bubble mist. Highly recommend!

2022-05-03If you are looking to host a party here, all I can say is GO FOR IT!! We highly recommend!! Michael was able to map out every detail with us so we felt comfortable and excited for the experience that all of our guests would have. We rented the space out on a Friday night for over 100 people and were even happier than we thought we would be with the space, the drinks, good “bar” food and the staff ! The combined bar and lounge experience here is not easy to find and when you add on the outdoor garden, DJ, Photo booth and the cool knowledgeable, efficient and friendly staff, it truly makes for a perfect party atmosphere. It was truly a night to remember forever!!

2022-06-21Hosted a reception after a reunion concert with my high school alumni and it was a fantastic venue for this event. Mike and his staff were professional and very thorough throughout the entire process. The space is gorgeous and the right vibe to engage people in conversation.

2021-12-28Ordered the toasted coconut old fashioned and lavandoula sour. Amazing all around.(Pro tip, play a joke on a friend and order him the sour. Hell have sparkles on his lips all night).

2022-04-07After an hour and two drinks, the security guard came over and told me I cant wear my hat backwards. The security guard literally called me a douche because I continued to wear my hat backwards. Based on other peoples comments, its clear this bar only wants well dressed/hot girls as patrons. Will not be returning.
