Bluebird Distilling

Really well crafted cocktail menu and a super outstanding aesthetic — its inviting, fresh, warm, cozy, cool, collected. Since moving to Phoenixville it’s now become my go-​to for drinks and when purchasing spirits for gifts. I think the founder has really done something marvelous here. So proud this is a local distillery.

Great atmosphere in an old service garage. Very much in to the showmanship of actually making the drink. I preferred the rum drinks over the unoaked whiskey, and gin drink I tried. I’d return but would go for the rum beverages over the others. Cool music, and friendly staff! A tad pricey but that was expected.

What a great find in Phoenixville. The vodka drinks are fantastic! I’m not a rum drinker but did try the Daig’ a l’Orange, Mojito, and Comfortably Numb. All very good. The live entertainment was a big bonus!

Bluebird Distilling adds another dimension to the Phoenixville scene. With several different kinds of distilled spirits and specialty cocktails to choose from, this is a fantastic place to drop in for a wonderful handcrafted cocktail.
Their liquors include whiskey, vodka, gin and rum with the their cocktail menu built around the spirits. A fan of dark n’ stormies, I tried their light and stormy. It was nicely made and refreshing. You can taste the sugar cane in the drink itself from the distilling process.
Each cocktail is made with cocktail cubes by their bartenders. They didn’t appear to have any servers to tend to the tables, so walking up to the bar is the option to get your beverages. You can purchase bottles of their liquors to bring home with you on side.
The building itself is well lit, open and clean, providing for a nice cocktail experience in an inviting atmosphere.

A place you’d normally find in a large city… right in the heart of Phoenixville.
Great drinks, great atmosphere, really creative menu.
So far the distillery produces their own rum, vodka, rye whiskey, and gin. I believe they’re shooting for a bourbon in the future too!
Bar staff is knowledgable and skilled. Prices are high but the cost is balanced out by the fact that you’re getting quality drinks made with in-​house distilled spirits.
Can’t wait to come back, especially in the late spring and early summer. If you’re in the area you have to stop by.

I have been wanting to try Bluebird for a while now, and my experience was not what I was expecting. I felt that the experience was all fluff and quite foofy. Prices were pretty steep, which I do not mind if the cocktail is good. But I could barely tell that there was alcohol in my beverage, it tasted just like seltzer (I ordered the Bluebird drink). Consistency seemed to be an issue because another woman ordered the same drink I did and it looked so different than mine. From my observations, I noticed the drinks were rather small as well. I sat in the room next to the bar at a high top table. The décor is very industrial chic and looks nice, but the high top chairs were very uncomfortable. It made me not want to sit and have another drink. Overall my experience was lackluster.

Very dope establishment.
The décor is super cool, classy and crisp. Every drink I’ve had at blue bird has been delicious, fresh and made with effort! I wish the drinks contained a bit more alc, or at least the option for when someone needs a little umpf ;-).
The prices are a bit steep, maybe take off a buck or two per cocktail.
Places like blue bird are just solid because these are small, local establishment that put in true effort in their product. And it shows!
If possible (from license /​regulation perspective), I would turn the parking lot space into a patio area. In the spring, summer and fall such a patio would be a a booming spot! Wooden patio, some plants and you got an outside hotspot with delicious cocktails.
Keep up all the good work,

Craft cocktails meets a ruggedly cool and classy environment.
Blue bird distills well, consistently keeps you on your toes with their cocktail menu and just might light something on fire behind the bar (on purpose).
Going to blue bird is an experience in and of itself. The bar tenders move freely between carefully slicing fruits, precisely muddling herbs, and vigorously shaking drinks. All this under the shadow of their massive barrels of distilling whiskey, gin and vodka.
If you’re looking for a craft cocktail that could go toe to toe with anyone in the city — hit up blue bird.
Just one more reason to get cozy in Phoenixville.

Matt, our bartender was great! Took his time out to explain everything and was so friendly! The cocktails were delicious! Stay local!

The atmosphere, décor, and noise level are all exceptional. This is quite possibly one of the nicest drinking establishments in Pennsylvania. The crowd is very nice, everyone is dressed well and friendly. As for the décor it reminds me of a refined Kentucky moon shine operation. There is a comfortable feel about the establishment and plenty of space for you and your friends to enjoy a drink — scratch that a spirit you and your friends can enjoy a spirit., that will read much better than a drink… Also the noise level is excellent and even when crowded it never reaches an unpleasant decibel. They selection of distilled alcohol is very diverse: Gin, Bourbon, Whiskey, Rum, and Vodka. I sampled the Gin because it’s the only hard liquor I drink… I found it to be course and it didn’t leave a good aftertaste. I generally only drink Hendrick’s or the local Philly Gin favorite Blue Coat. While the Gin wasn’t bad it wasn’t what I was used to…, with that written their product is on par with Beefeaters or Bombay. While there I had one drink: «Lucid» and it was excellent! The bartender did an excellent job and I was very satisfied with the end product. Please note there is no table service and all drinks must be ordered from the bar. Overall I enjoyed everything about this place and I will definitely return!

We’ve been to wineries, we’ve been to breweries, but how often do us Northeasterners get to go to a distillery out in the burbs? They distill their own spirits, and since its a very new business, none of them are aged (yet, much is aging in barrels surrounding the tables). This is what sets it apart though — taking young spirits and making them taste good in a cocktail requires skill and the cocktails here are certainly among the most unique ones I’ve ever had. I’ve had a gin drink with muddled tarragon and absinthe thats lit with a match, and an old fashioned made with orange flavored bitters and brown sugar. Everybody I’ve taken here has become a convert — my favorite is when somebody says «I don’t like gin» and the bartender just says «try this», makes them a cocktail and converts them to being a gin drinker. Definitely worth stopping in when out in Phoenixville. The only drawback is that drinks could take 20 minutes on average due to limited bartenders and a growing fanbase, but I have found that not be a major deterrent. No kitchen, but fear not, you can bring your own food.

Hands down best cocktails in Phoenixville. All of the ingredients are fresh which definitely makes a difference in the quality of the drink. I ordered gin drinks on two separate occasions and they were both awesome. It’s a great place to just hang out and enjoy a good quality locally produced drink. Definitely would recommend!

The best cocktails in Phoenixville, period. The space is designed like a blend of ski lodge and loft warehouse. You can tell the owners invested a lot into the former dry cleaning place. Drinks are creative with fresh ingredients. As others point out, the drinks take a few minutes to make but it’s worth the wait. The bartenders sample each cocktail mix with a straw, which I suppose helps with consistency. I haven’t tried anything neat or on the rocks yet but look forward to it. Check out the distillery room in the back at night — it resembles a supervillain lab.

I came in few weekends ago for a quick drink since the place is new! It was busy but not too packed like Molly’s after 11 for example. I ordered a mojito and there was three bartenders working. I waited 15 minutes just to order and another 15 just to make the drink. Im not sure if the bartenders don’t know how to be fast or they just don’t know how to manage the time. The drinks were very good but nothing special.

Went to Bluebird this afternoon for the first time. This place is awesome. Very impressed with the staff, drinks and the bar. Great job Jared and staff. I will be back!

Tremendous drink menu handcrafted from their own small batch whiskey, gin, vodka and rum. I had the privilege of trying a couple of vodka drinks and purchased a bottle of gin and a bottle of rum.
I rated 5 stars only because 6 isn’t an option. My highest recommendation for their great drinks and wonderful staff!

Fantastic and unique cocktails! Staff is friendly. I just wish the chairs were a little more comfortable.

The drinks were amazing and refreshing; however, the male blonde bartender was pretentious and rude to three out of the five in my group. I asked my brother the next week how he liked it and he said he had the same bartender who almost makes him never want to go back. The menu is creative and the inside is great, but just a tip to not have that bartender to make your experience much better.

My husband and I have been patiently waiting for Bluebird to open, peeking in the windows like weirdos on a weekly basis. We finally got to check it out today! First of all, the place is beautiful inside. It’s got a real masculine/​cozy/​industrial thing going on. Someone obviously put a lot of time into making it look amazing. Greg got the Blackberry Smash to start things off (so. good.) and then, it being Blobfest weekend and all, he felt like he had to try The Blob as well. It had a little blob of grape jelly in it! I got the Firebird. and then I got another Firebird. Next time I go, I think I’m gonna try the Firebird. The bartenders were very friendly, knowledgeable, and excited about what they were doing. I’ll definitely be back!

Outstanding hand-​crafted cocktails in a casual but upscale setting. You won’t go wrong with any of the amazing drinks that you can choose from. I got the Firebird (habañero infused vodka with a cayenne & sugar crusted rim… yummmmmm!!!
