BarFly's Review of Matchbox Lounge

A lovely little morsel of a lounge with no more than ten tables, the Matchbox serves up some great classic style cocktails and delectable eats. Minimalist approach, rotating art on the walls, and a bourbon collection to die for. LOL hipster gals can be deafening, but the tiny space is relatively comfortable otherwise.

Reader Reviews of Matchbox Lounge
matchbox lounge

This is a modern, open, clean place. The art on the walls changes frequently, and is always interesting. Their food is very very tasty, but the portions are miniscule. The prices don't seem bad, but once you get the tiny little plate, you feel ripped off. It would be great if they had some inexpensive nibbles, like bread or crackers - but if you order a cheese plate, it comes with one small portion of cheese and maybe 4 slices of baguette.

The servers are friendly, and mostly nice to look at, if a little slow and distracted.

The drinks are good, with a nice selection of fancy special drinks. Their beer selection on tap is lame, with only 3 or 4 available, and favoriing bitter belgian varieties.

Monday nights are really fun with the band Sneakin' Out.
