Venus Spirits Cocktails & Kitchen

"Newer spot. Pretty good gin here! Go simple like a G&T —their cocktails are a bit too sweet for my taste. Their menu is good, too! Trends a little meat-heavy but they have a vegan Caesar and veggie options that can likely be made vegan friendly. For meat lovers, Cornbread is excellent, burger is good, check for specials. Lots of outdoor seating. "

"I love the cocktails and vibe here. The food is American classics -- I love the brussel sprouts, salmon dish and the burger is huge! One of my favorite cocktails here is the frozen paloma -- try it, you won't regret it! Venus also has a tasting room next door, drop by to taste of some their spirits. "

"Venus Spirits started out as a small batch distillery in Santa Cruz and later developed into a full service kitchen + bar. Best know for their Gin, come for incredible cocktails and great small plates. "
