Kinfolk is a cozy upscale cocktail lounge with a few intimate tables in the front and a communal table surrounded by beautiful bottles of spirits in the back. Conceptualized by owners Chuck Smith, Larry Perdido and Director of Operations Joe Nguyen during the pandemic, Kinfolk offers elevated cocktails like The Prospector which General Manager Brian Bounds says, “is balanced on the palate, rich with aromatics, and will both warm you up, and cool you down.” If nothing on the menu speaks to you, you can opt for bartender’s roulette. And, rumor has it a friendly ghost frequents Kinfolk, so your libation may come with a ghost story to take home with you.
