Only open a week and already a lot of attention. Bar staff were excellent and we felt very welcomed by the host/manager. Very nice classic bar setting and ambiance. It’s the kind of place you want to have a drink in and talk or forget about the day.

Overall ambience and vibe position Joyner’s as perhaps the coolest bar in the triad...it’s obvious the management team here has done their homework and researched and mined similar establishments (inter)nationally(?) for inspiration. Well done...we will be back!

Loved the ambiance and the cocktails. The few drawbacks were easily chalked up to it being opening weekend. Looking forward to coming back again soon.

It was overall a great experience and we will be back! It did take almost 30 minutes for us to get our check and pay and we almost missed our dinner reservations somewhere else however it was the first night and we did enjoy our server she was just really busy!! Maybe add one more waitstaff and another bartender? Kudos though!

We had a great time! We were invited to use the VIP Room due to the size of our group. It was "Unique" and very Cool. It made it's own statement and added to the experience for sure!

Really enjoyed he atmosphere and the drinks were fantastic. It did take 20-30 mins to get our drinks after ordering (we had to stay behind after our friends left just waiting for drinks we’d ordered long before). I hope they’ll be able to find a solution to this minor issue... overall a fantastic new place and experience!

Didn't have food so can't rate it. The distancing and masking re: COVID weren't very strictly enforced but it was pretty quiet and the drinks were good and fairly priced. Bartender gave a great drink rec, too!
