Frost Doylestown

A Unique Experience for Special Occasions at the Frost Bar I recently visited the frost bar for a date, and it was a memorable experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was unique and set the stage for a special evening. The ambiance was cool and distinct, making it a perfect venue for a more intimate or special night out. The cocktails were a standout—creative, flavorful, and expertly crafted. Each drink was a work of art, and they truly elevated the experience. The highlight of the evening, however, was the mushroom soup. Rich, creamy, and full of flavor, it was easily a 10/10. It’s a must-try for anyone visiting! The only downside I’d mention is the tight space between tables, which made the place feel a little cramped at times. However, the friendly and attentive staff made up for it, creating an inviting and pleasant atmosphere despite the limited space. All in all, the frost bar is a fantastic choice for a special evening, offering delicious food, inventive cocktails, and a unique setting. If you’re looking for a place that offers something out of the ordinary for a special event or celebration, this is definitely a spot to consider. I’ll certainly be returning!

Food is mediocre, especially for the price. Drinks were good but are over priced. While our server was good enough. Perhaps, he only has the menu to work with, and it’s ok at best. Not very imaginative, and definitely doesn’t taste wholesome. Sometimes they have good entertainment (like the electric violin), and sometimes not (the piano was a downer). The the concept is a good idea, but execution is lacking.

4 people for dinner including gratuity was $561. We like to go out quite a bit and all over the Philadelphia area. $23 for an espresso martini an $23 for Belvedere martini is outrageous for Doylestown borough. $19 for a tequila and club soda. The food was good, the band was very good. The atmosphere decent. Food prices reasonable. Drink prices are borderline criminal. $23 in Doylestown borough for a martini is a joke especially when it’s not full to the rim. Do better for that price. I can afford it, but I don’t like being completely gouged. I call this experience a “one and done”.

Only went in for mock tails this visit but definitely will be back to try the food 08/30/25 Finally got to come back for the food we just got some small plates and shared . It was well worth it. Everything was flavorful and exceeded our expectations. Will definitely be back.

I wanted to dislike this place for being too “New York”. This is Bucks County after all. I went for dinner and it completely changed my opinion! Delicious entrees, tasty cocktails and an intimate ambiance with fantastic live music convinced me that this place is a breath of fresh air in the local restaurant scene. The braised short rib was cooked well and the portions were generous. My only complaint is the price of the drinks, but for the entertainment, it was worth paying a bit more. The small plates are also a treat, with a large selection to choose from. What a pleasant surprise, I only wish the restaurant were larger!

My girlfriends and I had a fantastic evening at Frost! The drinks were amazingly delicious and the selections were outstanding. They were like works of art! We dined on a variety of appetizers and they were freshly made and excellent quality and taste. The best part was the great service we received and the warm and welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be returning to Frost in the near future!

Finally an upscale feel and amazing drinks and small plates that doesn't feel pretentious! It's a bit smaller than we expected, but perfect for an intimate evening with great balanced craft cocktails and just the right price small plates. Our server, Dominique, made everything perfect. We'll definitely be back!

If you’re a fan of great wine and good food, it’s about time you made a reservation. Pricey? Yea. Pretentious? No. But hey, you get what you pay for. The drinks come at a bit of a higher cost than most places because they’re using the best ingredients. Their “well” alcohol is someone else’s top shelf. The small plates selection didn’t feel so small when we were finished. You can order an entire small German chocolate cake. Not a slice. A whole cake. It fed the entire table. The entertainment was lovely, the staff was kind and accommodating, the owners were happy to see us and excited to show everyone what they had created. All around it was a lovely experience and I absolutely will be back. Doylestown needed a good wine selection. Frost delivered.

My girlfriend and I were a little nervous to come here based on the reviews but we went last night and had a wonderful night. The band was terrific, the food and drinks were great, and everyone we interacted with was friendly and polite. Will definitely be back.

This place was awesome. The vibe in there was just right. Live music - great service and the drinks were AMAZING. This place is on the pricer side but was so worth it. Will definitely be back. Just wish that they were open later!!

I got to visit this restaurant for the first time since its opening and it did not disappoint! They have live music and incredible food and drinks (the sliders were incredible) Very classy for any date night or special event They even offer an exclusive upstairs with a piano bar and specialty service if you're a member! I highly reccomend

Step into Frost, a hidden martini bar and lounge with an effortlessly cool vibe. The bar's dim lighting, and dark accents create an intimate atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a long day. The lounge offers a happy hour menu (with a limited selection) Monday to Friday. I ordered the seasonal peach sangria (twice), cheesesteak rolls and vegetarian spring rolls from the happy hour menu. Fresh chunks of peaches infuse the white wine based sangria with their sweet essence. The cheesesteak rolls were a standout choice. They are golden, crispy rolls, packed with savory, tender beef and melted cheese, perfectly complemented by a zesty, spicy ketchup that adds a kick. In contrast, the veggie rolls are more straightforward. While the vegetables are well-seasoned, the wrappers used lacked the delicate, crispy texture that spring roll wrappers would provide. A switch to spring roll wrappers could elevate these veggie rolls, giving them a lighter, more refined bite. I did like the peanut sauce condiment that came with them. Had to order a drink off the regular menu and picked the Elit espresso martini. A cocktail that's both strong and indulgent, with a perfect harmony of coffee and creaminess from the Baileys. Served chilled and garnished with a few coffee beans, it's a sophisticated choice for those seeking a potent yet elegant libation. Frost is a must-visit for its unique ambiance and satisfying cocktails.

I read all the reviews before we went and I can totally see why people may love or loathe this place. It's very expensive (My espresso martini was $21, appetizer plate was $23 and olive oil cake was $14). They have valet parking. The have a doorman/bouncer and they are not "sweet" people... But - we had an amazing time anyway. Very good food and drinks but just a whole lotta money to pay for that ambience.

I would recommend going anywhere else in Doylestown. From the moment we walked in, the person who sat us was incredibly rude and made us feel unwelcome. The restaurant was practically empty when we arrived, but instead of hospitality, we got attitude. There is a sign out front that advertises happy hour but you aren't told it's only at two specific hightop tables in the restaurant or the bar which could not accommodate our party. Ok fine whatever that should have been told to us but we ordered (overpriced) drinks anyway. What really sealed the deal was watching the owner point at our table and count what we ordered, as if we weren't spending enough. It was uncomfortable, unprofessional, and downright insulting. We had planned to stay longer and order more, including food and drinks, but the unwelcoming atmosphere made us decide to quickly finish up, pay, and leave. Our server was lovely (and we made sure to tip her well because it wasn't her fault), but the overall experience was ruined by the owner's behavior. With so many great spots in Doylestown, I'd suggest going anywhere else. It's a shame because the place is really pretty inside. Can't wait till it changes hands!

A welcomed change to Doylestown! I feel the town needs a few more upscale places. Has live music. Good drinks. I think it's funny that some of the bad reviews suggest it's pretentious. This is pretty on par for a place in the city (drinks, ambience, and dress code). To assume it's a -T shirts and $3 beers- kinda place, and then rate it low bc it's not. Ridiculous expectations. Good local businesses in a small town should always be welcomed in.

Place is cool looking inside but that's all it has going for them. $14 margarita pie like 7 inches, look at pic next to my fork. And we saw guy bring it inside in a box, so not even made there. Can't serve a pie the size of my hand for $14 Oh and $18 for glass of HOUSE Pinot Noir

Service and our one dish was not cooked and served cold. The potatoes Au gratin bites

Staff and patrons treated poorly by management, drinks are way overpriced, definitely not fancy or "NYC style".

Food was just OK had scallops shrimp calamari dish. Small portion overpriced pineapple martini was OK. Loved the jazz singer atmosphere was beautiful. Service was excellent.

This type of establishment was sorely needed in Doylestown, and I'm happy it's here. While there are other cocktail bars in the area, what they lack is 1. They don't offer food, or a large variety of food. 2. It's not offered past 9:30-10pm. 3. They cater more to the younger crowd who's looking to party more so than just hang out with a nice cocktail and relaxing live music. This place offers tapas like plates, the kitchen is open late, and it's much more "toned down", than some of the other places in D-town nearby. The variety of the tapas is broad, with many vegetarian options. The cocktail and wine list is extensive. My one constructive criticism is: while the tapas theme is great, expect to order a considerable number of dishes if you think this will be a dinner type of meal. And if you're in a big group, ie greater than 2, it adds up. Also, and most importantly, they have a really nice wine list with some expensive wines--however the tapas dishes don't match the level of wines. If I'm looking to order a nice (expensive) bottle of wine, I would want a couple of substantial dishes on the menu to pair that with, ie a rich pasta, or perhaps some more meatier options, larger plates, etc. The service thus far has been great, and the drinks are creative and made well. Right now, this will be either our pre/post dinner place, and hopefully as the food menu evolves, also a dinner spot. My favorite part of the food, is the bread basket. So sweet and warm and soft!

Yesterday 5 of us drove from Princeton to the Frost Lounge in Doylestown, Pa to have a dinner and wine tasting there. We heard good reports about the place before, but our total experience by far exceed our expectations. Just about everything was excellent, the food and the service, as well as the beautiful interior of the restaurant. On our way home we all wished to have a place like the Frost in Princeton, perhaps someone will get the idea to do that. In conclusion: a strong recommendation to visit the Doylestown Frost lounge.

The owner of this establishment has no respect for women. He was very rude to me as a PAYING CUSTOMER! I paid for overpriced food and was very rudely told that I was not allowed to use the restroom! I suppose he would probably treat his own mother with such disrespect. Shame on him!

The owner insists on videoing all karaoke singers. When I refused, he threw me out. Incredibly rude. Not cool or fun.

Took my daughter here for her 30th birthday and it was a wonderful dining experience. Our waitress was friendly and very attentive. The atmosphere and decor was modern but cozy. With beautiful soft music playing in the background. The food was incredible. I ordered the short ribs and my daughter ordered the salmon. We were both so happy with our meals and the presentation of the food was beautiful. I asked my daughter to take me here for mothers day. Not to be missed, the specialty drinks! Treat yourself to Frost.

My husband and I went for the first time last evening. From the second I walked in, I was turned off. The person who seated us, who was the 'manager', was cold and abrupt. Not welcoming at all. We ordered our drinks - no problem there. Drinks were good. Our meals were a different story. My husband was served scallop dish - which had TWO scallops, some octopus and shrimp. Looked more like an appetizer than a meal. About 15 minutes later, my filet came out. I had asked for medium plus. It was WELL done. IT had been pounded and didn't even look like a filet. I took a couple bites. Absolutely no flavor, way too overcooked. The waitress said she could have another made. I had already waited quite a while after my husband was already served, I didn't want to wait for another. She said she'd speak to the manager (the man who seated us) and came back with the bill. No explanation and nothing was removed. I asked to speak to him. Rude and annoyed doesn't begin to explain his demeanor! He did end up taking the $55 over cooked meal off, but the whole evening was a huge disappointment! We will definitely not be going back.

Great location! I have always loved this spot for outdoor dining. Melanie our server was awesome and friendly. However, what is up with the drink prices? $46 for two dirty martinis? Where are we...NYC? Owner or manager drank wine and smoked cigars while overseeing the staff. Unprofessional! Will not return. If you are bougie, have at it!

My mother has been looking forward to going to Frost since they opened, but unfortunately we had a seriously disappointing experience. First, the service was awful. Our waitress took at least 20 minutes to come over and when she did, she did not introduce herself, didn't share the specials with us, and didn't lead with the items on the menu they were out of -- instead, she let me to go down the list of drinks just to say, "We're out of that... yep, that too... and that one." They were "out" of a third of the drink menu. Also, for a martini bar, there were no martinis on the menu... not one. When she brought the drinks, she pretty much slammed them on the table and walked away before we could even say thank you. There were a couple tables she checked on 2-3 times before coming back to even get our food order. The food was absolutely mediocre. My mother ordered the bao buns which had short rib, one pickle, and three shreds of cabbage. I ordered very dry vegetarian meatballs. And we shared the Doylestown Bar Pie, which tasted like a Wegman's brand frozen pizza. The strawberry shortcake was OK. Also, the ambience left a lot to be desired. I don't usually mind loud music personally, but they describe themselves as a speakeasy, so my mother was expecting a more mellow vibe. Instead, it felt like we were in a dark underground club in Philly. It even seemed too loud for the waitress to hear us because she got our orders wrong a couple times, as well. The last issue came with the bill. I got my mother a gift card and the waitress immediately told us she didn't know how to process it. I just looked at her, like... OK, maybe ask the owner who's just been standing around all night? He came back over with her and tried to act like I had a fake gift card, telling us the balance was $0. I showed him the receipt which showed I'd bought the gift card that day so there's no way it would be spent and at a balance of $0 and he acted like I was lying. Very disrespectful and I was honestly pretty offended. Why sell gift cards if you and your staff don't know how to use them and then accuse your patrons of fraud? It goes without saying, but we're not coming back.

We went for the New Year Eve dinner and party. The service was terrible. It was a Pre Fixe menu and it still took forever to get our food. They did not clear the plates and we never received our desserts. The place was half full and they still could not take care of our table. I will never come back here again.

I went here this past weekend with a large group of friends. While inside was very posh. It was not busy and our large group sat squished at high tops and stools. While the drinks were delicious and unique... they were VERY expensive!! I ordered the Pulled Pork Sliders. It came with 2 very small sliders for over $20! I ate one and it was very basic with not much flavor but I was hungry. I took a bite of my second and got a huge piece of gristle. I discreetly pulled it out & then took another bite and got even a larger piece of gristle. I called over the server and told her my second slider was full of gristle & was inedible & so she took it away. I also told her I totally understand if they wanted to charge me for half my meal as I did eat the first slider. She said she would talk to the manager and get it taken off my bill & would I want anything else. Because I was still hungry, I did order Baked Brie for another crazy high price as it was very bland and not a lot of flavor. When we received the bill, I was not offered anything nor was I told that they were still charging me for everything. I would NOT recommend this place as this was one of the worst customer service I have ever received. Avoid this place!

Very clean and well decorated/refined space. Comfy and aesthetically pleasing. Servers were honest about drink capabilities and wait times/quality. Very good AC and drink quality. Clean bathrooms Expensive drinks but priced accordingly. Very good overall. Some of the best in town Will keep coming back Havent tried the food

Walked in and walked out, smelled like a public pool. Owner was profoundly rude and staff seemed miserable to be there.

I thought the 3.9 Google review was bad. Then I came here and saw the 2.4 star review. This restaurant is really not doing well. I read many reviews and sounds like to sum it up...the owners are impolite and overbearing, the food is underwhelming and overpriced, they bring an NYC attitude to PA which will not fly, they won't make exceptions for a pregnant woman in need to use the bathroom, it's crowded and the owners don't own up to any of their mistakes. I think their reviews wouldn't be so bad if they listened to customers' complaints instead of going off on them in reviews. Really sad.

Frost is basically what you'd get if you asked Jean Ralphio Saperstein and Tom Haverford to design and run their dream establishment. It looks straight out of one of those old Grand Theft Auto games. An exaggerated caricature of a cocktail bar with a Fiverr-grade logo and hyperactive social media presence that fails to deliver. It lives up to the name, and not in a good way. Cold and uninviting, Frost is all (strange) style and no substance and would do well to consult with an interior decorator with restaurant design experience instead of laser tag arena or dystopian sci-fi design experience. It doesn't fit in or even moderately respect the overall vibe of the town it resides in. This combined with a draconian obsession with appearances enforced via their dress code ultimately define Frost: a place that comes off as if it's trying too hard to be something it's not that aims to court clientele with the same affliction. It might be worth the effort if you were rewarded with the company of nice people and delicious food and drinks. Instead, if you make it to the point where you're seated at the bar and someone pays attention to you, one sip will be all it takes to have you instantly wondering why you didn't choose to give your money to one of the dozens of better local bars and restaurants just a short walk away. There's no need to settle for Frost. They're selling "exclusivity" to people who fall for that sort of gimmick, but this is an exclusive club you probably won't even want to be in for more than a few minutes. Authenticity matters. When people open restaurants because they love food, it shows. When people open restaurants because they want to diversify their portfolio, it shows. The staff seem micromanaged and the manager/owner seemed annoyed by the very customers he expected to pay the cartoonishly high bill. Like paying $10 for still water? You'll love it here. Otherwise? Hard, hard, hard pass on this inauthentic experiment. It markets itself as sophisticated and upscale, but no amount of marketing can save it from itself. Head around the corner to MOMs, Hops/Scotch, Domani Star, Pag's Pub, 86 West, or Penn Taproom, and enjoy a much better evening with much less blue LED eye strain for much less money with a much lower likelihood of the guys from A Night at the Roxbury hitting on you or your significant other. The biggest shame is it's in a great location. The sooner it either dramatically transforms itself or closes and makes way for a better establishment, the better off Doylestown's restaurant scene will be.

I feel sorry for the staff who work here. They seem very nice. The owner and family who run this establishment however clearly have no interest in making paying customers feel welcome. I cant see this place staying open much longer if the management continues treating staff and customers so disrespectfully. A frosty review from me. He's lost my business.

Fantastic experience! Our server Antonio was amazing. Very helpful with selections and suggestions. The Espresso Martini was delicious and pretty. We chose from the small plate/tappas selection which was so delicious. The specials: mushroom soup was filling. Definitely recommend.

The Worst experience I have ever had when trying to enter a bar. Our greeting from the security guard at the door was excessively negative right from the start. I got the impression that we needed to flash a roll of hundred dollar bills to be admitted. He was not competent enough to make a decision to allow us to enter, so he had to call for backup. The Creepy owner arrived and stuck his head through the black curtain. We were denied admission when we said we wanted to check out the band. Do yourself a favor and Do Not waste your time even considering going there. There are plenty of much nicer places in town.

Amazing vibe and service I went there today because I am visiting in Rhode Island the owners are very nice and I love how the downstairs has a dark but pristine vibe and the upstairs has a warm vibe so you can choose what mood you are in

The worst restaurant in the Doylestown area. The manager is rude, the service is bad, heavy ambience, my food arrived cold and I couldn't even complain about that. Don't waste your money, time and energy at this restaurant. There are plenty of other good restaurants in Doylestown better than that. Stay away.

I only give it one star because you cant post a review with zero stars. What an overpriced nightmare! You can get two drinks or two glasses of wine in most establishments in D-town for what you will pay for one at Frost. While the place is sort of nice, the quality of the food is horrible. Burned flatbreads at night and raw hamburgers at daytime events. Then there is who I believe is the owner. OMG, rude loud and getting drunker by the minute. He berates the staff and is rude to the customers. Don't ask for anything unusual or you will be the subject of his ridicule. I've always heard that the customer is right, not here and this guy will let you know it. You can get a better, more consistent meal at McDonalds. Stay away from Frost.

My wife and I were really looking forward to trying Frost since it opened. Our waitress was really nice, service was quick and they did a really nice job with the interior renovations. Live band entertainment was a plus too. Main reason bringing down this review is the cocktail prices are very overpriced! All cocktails except one are over $20 (lowest is $18 and most are around $22/$23). After 2 rounds of drinks we were already at a $100 bill! Much more cost efficient options in Doylestown - like Hopscotch where the drinks are similar quality (if not better) and half the price.

Tight quarters, insane prices! Plus, look out for the rip-off "add on" pricing. Paid $100 for 4 drinks, charged additional "martini charge- $5, charged "up charge of $4" which was removed when server couldn't explain. Better choices in Doylestown

Rating this 1 star because I have to to write a review. Where to start? I overheard the owner uri being rude to a couple about what they were wearing. They looked very nice. I later heard him being homophobic about the couple. The drinks are so overpriced it's insane. 22 dollars for a cocktail????? I pay less in New York for way better drinks. This place sucks. Don't waste your time. Better places in town are hop scotch for drinks or moms for drinks and the delicious fried pickles.

My family, friends, and I love going to Frost! It is such a cool and different vibe from any other bar in Doylestown. The karaoke on Wednesday night is super fun and the servers and bartenders (Jack and Gianni) were super attentive and friendly.

The owner is an overbearing curmudgeon who creeps around smoking cigars and invading wait staff and customer space. Told myself I'd never go there again after two bad service & check experiences but was walking by with a friend so decided to step in to see who was performing. Met at the door by a guy wearing a headset and a mic (looked like the secret service) who said he had to check with the owner to see if we could come in. Owner peeked his head through the curtain like the wizard of Oz and was so friggin rude that we simply walked away. Angry at myself for walking in after having previously swore I'd never go there again. Did I mention overpriced?

Great drinks, amazing service and the small plate specials are truly out of this world

We have had the best time here. The drinks are awesome and the food is great. Best wines by the glass anywhere. The staff is so friendly and wonderful. And it's absolutely beautiful inside. Definitely come here!!

This review should start with this is Doylestown not New York City. The prices seem to be out of alignment with the geographical location, particularly the drinks. As for the food selection, it is somewhat limited. I understand that they just started offering full entrées, but what they offer is very basic. I believe they are striving for fine dining however, for the price, the food should exceed the expectation and it did not. I ordered scallops and the plate had a total of two scallops on it. I left the restaurant just as full as I did going in. The one positive for this restaurant is the atmosphere. It is small and quaint and nicely decorated. However, even that was a disappointment as it was freezing in the restaurant. And I don't usually get cold, but it was very noticeable. I'm sorry, but I would love to give this a better recommendation as Doylestown is very close to me however, much improvement is needed in order for me to return.

My friend and I went to Frost after touring Fonthill Castle and the Moravian Tile Works. We were very pleased. We started off with cocktails (Don't Talk About Coco), garlic shrimp and mushroom toast appetizers Delicious. For dinner, we had crab cakes. For dessert, we shared an amazing chocolate souffle. Our waiter, Moses was attentive and knowledgeable. Lovely atmosphere. Highly recomend.

My husband and I went a month or so ago and was extremely disappointed. It was around 5pm and was never offered the happy hour menu. Ordered off the main menu and when I realized there was a happy hour menu, the bartender told me "it was too late" to change my order. My husband also had a whiskey drink that was $56! Way overpriced. We ordered a cheeseboard. For 3 drinks and a cheeseboard our bill was $140!

Zero stars. Drinks are way over priced. While the server was fine the manager was clearly only concerned with getting every penny he could from customers. Clientele was questionable and the place was empty, most likely due to up charging on drinks . Do not go . Complete rip off and honestly this place should be shut down

This place is horrible and if you see a review stating anything else it's the owner bribing patrons with free drinks so say other wise. This place is so crowded with tables and decor it gives you anxiety looking at things. The owner is an issue in himself he yells at teenagers who I believe we're working at a neighboring establishment l, he makes remarks about his guests I overheard him talking about something a female was wearing that she was to big to "pull it off" the whole vibe of this place is off, the music the menu and the microwaved Luke warm food this is doylestown where people pride them selves on great service and a great product this place does not belong. This place and it's owner have low standards I would not waste my time going here .

Cosy restaurant. Friendly people. Mushroom Toast and Doylestown pie is very good. Highly recommend.

The first thing they are going to ask you at Frost is, " do you have a reservation" no, i don't! I'm just trying to sit at the bar and have a drink! This is Doylestown not NYC.

Ambiance is trendy seating is pretty tight, the drinks are very underwhelming and overpriced ($20 for most mixed drinks) and service was slow. Took our drink order at the same time, brought my wife's drink out ten minutes later, then brought mine out 15 minutes after that, and only after we inquired about it.

Very busy on a Friday night. Food and drinks were good but maybe a tad overpriced for what we got. As a younger couple, we noticed the manager was running around attending only to the tables with people who were older, hoping that they could spend more. Seemed pretty obvious that our service was worse because we are in our 20s, despite spending $150 on food and beverages. We waited 10 minutes to be seated for a table that we were on time for a reservation for.

I wanted this to be a great experience as I was a Mother's Day dinner with my daughter. Unfortunately, the service was unapologetically terrible. The food was mediocre and the ambiance was lacking. Also, the menu did not list a single martini which is odd since they are a martini bar. Drinks ranged from $18-24 and lacked creativity. Very disappointing.

Beautiful decor, great staff but the prices are ridiculous!!! The drinks were wonderful although the ice cube took up most of the glass and at $24 a drink, you'd like to have more liquid than ice. The food was great too albeit not dinner worthy. We were there on Saturday night with our grown children. We all had 2 drinks each and ordered a variety of their Tapas plates. Certainly not considered dinner by any stretch of the imagination. The bill came to over $800 without the tip. There were 8 of us so we aren't talking about a crowd of 16 or more. That's more than $100 per person and we ended up going home and ordering pizza because we were all still hungry. Unfortunately we won't be going back because it would come down to paying our car payment or going to Frost. I think they'll do fine in the beginning but after the novelty has worn off, the prices will keep people away.
