I really like this place. Its always got a good atmosphere regardless of how many people are there. Plus I like whiskey. Usually the music is just right; loud enough to bring some energy to the room but quiet enough to carry on conversation. Seating is pretty generous too so its definitely a good spot to socialize. Theres a beer pong table right by the window that overlooks Federal Street and thats pretty awesome. Ive played against people I didnt know and usually everyone isnt hard to get along with when it comes to the rules.Its a pretty good spot for sure. I dont have any hesitation taking new people there unless I know theyre into more of a club atmosphere. It definitely doesnt have a club atmosphere (which is one of my favorite things about it).

Great selection of drinks. Good high end liquors and prohibition cocktails.

Good beer selection and atmosphere. There is a pong table and rockbot app to play music you want on their Soundsystem. Good service.

Great selection. Music too loud to have a conversation.

I love this bar! This is the only bar that I actually enjoy going to downtown. They have an excellent selection of cocktails, the staff is very nice, and the atomsphere is perfect. If you are looking for a nice place to sit and have a well made drink, this is the place to go to in downtown Youngstown.

Cool bar upstairs. Good beer selection.

The drinks here are good, good prices. The atmosphere is very cool, and nice and cozy booths. The waitstaff is friendly and obliging, knowledgeable about thier menu. A great favorite of my husband and Is!

Extremely friendly staff! Im not much of a beer drinker but they made sure to find something I liked. Had a great time out with my girls.

Nice quite place... Great atmosphere

Love this place. Comfortable atmosphere to enjoy a cocktail. Highly recommend making it a stop while youre downtown.

Good drinks but long climb up stairs to bar

Not a great selection of good Scotch or burbon. You would think with a name like ryes there would be some quality single malt.

Good people great place to hang out

Best kept secret in Youngstown. Really cool place for a drink.

Awesome staff and good vibes here

Wish there was a higher selection of whiskey but overall a great place with great cocktails and atmosphere.

Good feel/vibe and they encourage you to bring in outside food because they dont serve any.
