Reviews for The Archives in Winooski, VT
Strong and creative drinks. You?re really getting a bang for your buck. Fun games, but it gets a bit humid in the downstairs... portion. The stairs are a bit tricky if you have a few drinks in the tank. Not a place to get wasted- the vibe is relaxed, muchlike a cocktail party. But the kind of party you host with friends and you invite a coworker so you need to pace yourself. Youtalk about work and share laughs. Perhaps you discuss some workplace drama. You go to work on Monday and say ?Hey! I had a goodtime.? So you feel happier going to work each day so that you can see them again. You talk about the party often but you don?tinvite them again. Yet you have a stronger bond. When it?s time for you to leave the job, you consider maybe inviting them toanother party. This time you can get looser. But not too loose. Limited seating. Lovely decor and atmosphere. Service wasimpeccable- the staff made it even more fun. Read more
Fabulous beer ???? and drink selection and a nice assortment of vintage video and pinball games.
Good drinks and design. Bar area\'s got a great feel, however the one downtown on college Street is better. This one has less... games and especially less pinball, group, manual, games. So cool these bars exist tho, even for a 45 yo group of peeps. Read more
What a great bar in Winooski! A great way for adults to have fun. They also have a great beer menu and the bartenders know how... to whip up some tasty cocktails. I miss Oak45, but this is a great replacement Read more

I love both Archives locations! A night of pinball and beer? What could be better? But the Winooski location is my favorite... because of bartender Chris Keast, who remembered what kind of beer I had the last time I was in?months before. Chris is a realclass act! Read more
