Martha My Dear

About Martha My Dear

Deep green walls hung with gilt mirrors and portraits, red leather booths, Art Deco wallpaper behind the bar and strings of colored lights across the ceiling give the room a lived-in, slightly theatrical feel, and a red-felt pool table sits in the back on a patterned rug. Regulars describe it as a neighborhood bar first, with space to post up at the counter or take a booth with a group, but the drinks are built with care and the list changes often. Happy hour runs 5pm to 7pm with $10 cocktails, Tuesdays bring two-for-one beers, and a rotating pour of the week gets a chalkboard of its own. Pop-up food vendors fill the kitchen gap. Doors open at 5pm daily and close at 1am, reservations are not taken, and staff are praised for being welcoming rather than precious about the craft. One visitor was refused a drink after an early last call, but the 4.8 Google average from 92 reviews speaks for the rest.
