TUESDAYS ARE GAME DAY! Bring a board game, or play one of ours. Get comfy and stay awhile! Enjoy $6 gin & tonics and $2 perfect bar mix all day!
THE MENU: Innovative, from-scratch, handcrafted cocktails prepared just for you, and tasting flights of our spirits, liqueurs, and canned cocktails. See our current COCKTAIL ROOM MENU.
FOOD: We offer a limited menu of snack options, such as charcuterie and crostini. Vegan & GF options available. If you’re craving something more substantial, you’re welcome to bring takeout with you from neighboring restaurants. Our tables are small, however, and designed for cocktail service, so many people prefer to visit us for drinks before or after a meal elsewhere.
TO-GO OPTIONS: Full-size 750-ml and half-size 375-ml bottles (subject to state-mandated sales limits), cocktail kits, and Vikre merchandise are always available in our retail shop!
KIDS & DOGS: Well-behaved dogs on leashes and kids are welcome in the cocktail room, though keep in mind we have limited kid-friendly options on the menu.
NO-ALCOHOL OPTIONS: We always have several handcrafted no-alcohol drink options on our menu.
EVENTS: Looking to host a cocktail reception, social hour, or even book club meeting? We love hosting groups of up to 25 people at our semi-private back bar near our production area! Availability is generally limited to weekday evenings and weekends. Due to current business operations, we’re unable to host groups of more than 25 people. GET MORE INFO HERE.
PRIVATE TASTING EXPERIENCE: Our amazing private tasting experience is available by reservation only on select Saturdays. Reservations fill up fast, so book well in advance. Groups of 2-8* adults enjoy a private, guided experience in the distillery with a Vikre host. You’ll taste 4+ Vikre spirits and learn about the distillation process and the local ingredients and pristine Lake Superior water that make our spirits so unique. You’ll also have time to relax with a full-size cocktail of your choice off our current menu, served with complimentary “perfect bar mix.” A Vikre-logo souvenir rocks glass is yours to keep, plus you’ll receive special savings on bottles, cocktail kits, and merchandise in our retail shop! This experience is available by reservation only (see below). Reserve online, and pay at the time of your tasting. $39 per person (for non-drinkers, a mocktails version is available for $29), plus tax and a 20% service fee. *Looking to book a group of more than 8 people? Please e-mail us at info@vikredistillery.com to inquire.
