The Local’s Take
“Loud, friendly cocktail bar with a patio”
Mother's Ruin is a 6th Avenue cocktail bar that serves brunch every single day, 11 AM to 4 PM on weekdays and from 10 AM on weekends, then keeps the kitchen going until 1:30 AM. It is open until 2 AM all 365 days of the year. The cocktail list is a run of $14 house drinks (the Frozen Slushy is a spiced appletini), and brunch runs from Chicken & Eggo Waffles to Brunch Corn Dogs made with local breakfast sausage. There is a patio out back and an upstairs room called The Apartment. No reservations, so show up early on weekends.
