We had a fantastic time visiting Short Path for the first time this weekend. The staff was super friendly and attentive, the drinks were delicious, the playlist was on point, and the pizza was great, too! Love the extensive outdoor area and that they are dog friendly! Looking forward to our next visit!

While we enjoy pretty much all rap music, some of it didn’t totally match the vibe of the place. That was the only thing we noticed during our time there that could be different, otherwise it was great.

I really enjoy visiting short path. I appreciate the creativity and care that went into reopening. My girlfriend and I had a great time and were happy to have a lovely date out on the patio together since Covid started. The staff also are always friendly and knowledgeable. Please keep doing what you are doing. So happy to have this place to come to.

It was great! The only thing I would want to change was that there could be some big fans outside, it got pretty hot on the pavement. But it is July, so I expected it to be. And the drinks were great to cool down with

Love short path, the cocktails are great. Table was rocky, maybe a felt pad or something to keep it solid - one of the 2-top barrels. 95 degrees out but that's not SPD's fault!

It was tough to be seated at a barrel table when we brought food with us, making it difficult to have food and drinks on the table at once. There were other tables open that would have made it easier for us to eat.
