Always so much fun coming to this gem in Anderson. The place is always so clean, the bartenders so happy and efficient, the food delicious (just had their first batch of home-made cauliflower “wings”) everything is SO good. Nice little place to chill, drink, eat, and feel safe. Definitely one of the 1% places to visit in Anderson!

I am giving this a 5 star as Oakley Brothers has always provided top notch drinks and food. Nothing has changed and I would recommend this place to anyone. I do want to make note to management on the night of 12/28/22 I did receive absolutely horrible service to the level I actually feel obligated to write this. My wife and I sat down at the bar around 6:30. The bartender around 6:55 finally acknowledged our existence and our wait. We did inform her that we did not have time now to order given the event we were attending in the back of the building. She did say and I quote "next time you see we are busy you need to get up and come get in line". Come on now...we are literally sitting at the bar. I would also question her definition of "busy". Maybe we are nuts assuming we be served by the bartender while sitting at the bar. The gentleman literally sitting next to us was being tailored to by a gentleman who was also working by bringing samples of spirits etc. to him. One can only assume it was a friend as he ignored every other patron in the facility. The point to that is that he was be served and tailored to every 5 minutes while sitting at the bar. There is simply nothing preventing her from telling folks who accumulate at the corner of the bar to hold while she tends to the ones literally sitting in front her. Regardless, I felt this should be known. Again, you have a wonderful establishment and I can only assume this is just a "one off' and bartender with zero self-awareness or hospitality skills who can only grow. I wish you the best in 2023.

Really wanted to like it. It was the best burger I've had at a distillery in downtown Anderson at the 3rd table to the right. If I would say anything to the menu, "you're a distillery, lean into it, flavor your food with the bar, and use some seasoning!"

We discovered this place the last time we were in Anderson, but didn't have time to eat. This time we enjoyed a selection of their spirits along with a few menu items. The smoked wings were excellent and not pictured is a seasonal special, a chocolate chip cookie skillet. It was so good, we ordered a 2nd one. The drinks were excellent, with lots of seasonal cocktails to enjoy.

Great food and atmosphere. Homemade spirits are awesome. Highly recommend.
