Library Bar is the ideal spot for a before dinner drink to get your date night started! It has a very cozy, sexy vibe that is very comfortable. Their drinks are very good and we also loved the little bowl of complementary spiced nuts they give you! I decided to get their version of a pumpkin espresso martini which was very tasty. My fiancé got the classic espresso martini and really enjoyed that as well! I definitely want to come back here to have a drink again soon to try some of their appetizers as well. This winter I am so planning a night at Library Bar with a nice glass of red wine, chunky sweater and a cheese board! Who's with me?!

This is one of my favorite high-end bars in Philadelphia. The atmosphere is dark and intimate. The menu is light and curated. The service is excellent. The drinks are great as well -- I particularly stick to the whisky based recipes. There is room for improvement though. I'd expect an Old Fashioned that costs over $20 to come with one solid, clear cube of ice -- not bar ice. I'd also like it if the glasses were chilled. Those are the fine details that make the premium price tag for a cocktail well worth it. Still, this is a reliable bar to have a nice nightcap -- whether you're on a date, with friends or family, or just want to drop in for a drink and enjoy the cozy atmosphere.

Cute and intimate spot and nice service. But because there's only a few tables it's a bit tough to get a table and they don't always add chairs in case of an extra person to accommodate. I wanted the spicy tequila drink but they had run out of the alcohol so that was a bit of a bummer.

It is very cute. Predictably pricey, which is not surprising considering the location. It is however extremely tiny, too very small rooms. So keep that in mind if you're planning on coming with a group.

Beautiful lobby bar in Rittenhouse Hotel. Pricey, but fun for special occasions. Our server, was lackluster given the price point. We ordered bottle of champagne & a cheese board. Our cheeseboard was lovey but arrived almost a half hour after our champagne, and therefore we were almost done with our bottle of champagne. We were never asked if we wanted any more drinks. And then, as the bar was closing, we were politely asked to clear out the bar... Until some of the celebrities that we were meeting with showed up and then we were given a grace period, so that was slightly annoying.

Great tiny bar tucked away in The Rittenhouse Hotel. Friendly, knowledgeable bartenders serving excellent cocktails with top notch liquor. Drinks were kind of expensive ($22/23 cocktails, some pours were much more), but it went with the atmosphere. They have a small food menu if you're looking for fill. Looked good, but I didn't order anything Ordered The Castle of Love tequila cocktail and a couple pours of the Makers Mark Rittenhouse bourbon. It was excellent. In house barrel Will be back!

If you're looking for the perfect date night then this is the spot to be! Boyfriend planned this date and I absolutely loved it! The library bar gave off a very romantic and elegant vibe. We enjoyed our cocktails and the service was incredible as well. In addition, they also got a food menu if you're hungry. Can't wait to come back the next time I'm in town!
