Joe’s Tavern: The Ultimate Bloody Mary Experience

If you’re looking for the perfect bloody mary, look no further than Joe’s Tavern in the historic district. This place has absolutely nailed the art of the bloody mary.

The Drink

Joe’s bloody mary is a masterpiece. The base is made with premium vodka and their house-made bloody mary mix that strikes the perfect balance between savory, spicy, and umami-rich flavors.

What Makes It Special

  • House-made mix: They make their own bloody mary base daily
  • Perfect spice level: Hot enough to wake you up, not so hot it overwhelms
  • Quality vodka: They don’t skimp on the alcohol
  • Fresh garnishes: Celery, olives, pickles, and a bacon strip

The Garnish Game

The garnish situation at Joe’s is next level. We’re talking:

  • Crispy bacon strip
  • Fresh celery stalk
  • House-pickled vegetables
  • Stuffed olives
  • A rim of celery salt that actually enhances the drink

The Atmosphere

Joe’s has that perfect dive bar charm - dim lighting, worn wooden bar, and bartenders who know their craft. It’s the kind of place where you can settle in for a proper brunch or afternoon drinking session.

The Verdict

This is hands down the best bloody mary we’ve had in town. Everything from the mix to the garnishes to the atmosphere is on point. It’s pricier than your average bloody mary, but absolutely worth every penny.
