Soju Cocktails, Wine and Beer

Review of: Magnet Bar & Lounge

Read review on Judy’s Book.

When walking by at 6:30 on a Saturday, the bar was completely dark, with a pair of homeless people sitting in the stoop, so I figured it was another casualty of the”hipper than thou” 2006 bar and restaurant scene. Needless to say, I was happily surprised to see that when walking by at 10pm that the bar was open.

Magnet is not a full bar – serving only beer ($4 per pint), wine, sake and soju cocktails. Personally, I am not a fan of soju as a mixer except in a highball (chu-hai!), but when in Rome…

The bar staff was extremely friendly, the crowd was tolerable (until 11pm when it got flooded), and the beer (Deschutes Mirror Pond) and cocktail (mango-infused soju with Red Bull – the bartender’s current favorite) were fine.

Nothing exceptional – just a nice sort of lounge (with an Apple driven music system) with friendly staff and a happy dog that visited everybody in the loft-styled bar within the hour I was there.
