Excellent bartenders choice - Edit
I’ve been here twice so far and only ordered drinks which have been really well-balanced and skillfully made. My favorite thing to get is the bartenders choice which I’m not sure how often it rotates but I love a good surprise so I knew I had to try it. Can’t wait to come back to try more!

Stick to the drinks - Edit
The menu is all vegan, but you can ask to add egg white to drinks. The vibe is pretty relaxed and fun, the drinks aren’t too bad, but I would skip the food here. The food was honestly probably two stars or lower. We got chips with salsa and queso. Unfortunately if we were picking out chips and salsa at the grocery store it would’ve been tastier. The tacos weren’t very good. Love supporting vegan places and places with large vegan menus, but this missed the mark for us. Hit it up for drinks and the friendly staff, just don’t count on it for food.

Great food and drinks, relaxing atmosphere - Edit
This place was fully vegan when I went. I would give it 5 stars, but the program won't let me. The drinks were excellent, as was the food. It's a small place but attractive with friendly staff. I thought the menu was good and everything we ordered was perfectly prepared. Very pleasant experience.
Read moreThe only off-note was when we were leaving, someone suggested we come back on the early side. We were already there before 5 pm. We're older--don't we fit the customer profile? It wasn't the bartender or wait staff--they were great. Not sure who this was but it was odd. Probably the only reason we haven't been back yet, but we likely will try it again.
Pros: Nice lighting, clean, attractively furnished, Great food & drinks, happy hour, Great music

Great cocktails but limited food options - Edit
I’ll be back for cocktails but the food menu was tiny and pretty lame. Hopefully this is just due to pandemic limitations and it’ll improve?

(Now Only Mostly) Vegan, Women Owned, Local - Edit
I had the pleasure of trying out Cheeky's the first week they opened and then returning about a year later to see how far they've come. They've added several food options since they first opened, the drinks are great, the staff are phenomenal, and the atmosphere is wonderful. My girlfriend went a few months back when the bartender was trying a new cocktail recipe, she and her friend both loved it. It was not on the menu when we all returned together last week, but a single mention of the drink sent the bartender straight back behind the bar to attempt to recreate an improved version of it, and this time write it down for future use! The staff doesn't shy away from trying out new drinks and truly interacting with the customers. Great place and will definitely return!
Read moreUpdate: Cheeky's announced this week that they are reopening, but will no longer be fully vegan. They will be offering a non-vegan/vegetarian option, but will assume you're ordering vegan unless specified. Since they are no longer fully vegan, I felt the need to remove one star from the review as is customary will all non fully vegan establishments. It's unfortunate and I hope they will reconsider as a fully vegan bar was so rare to find.

This might be inaccurate. About a month or two ago my partner and I went there and were reassured that everything was vegan.

You must go here! - Edit
This place has been on my list of places to check out since it opened and inspired me to take a trip to Olympia. I'm loving all the new vegan places popping up here. I love the idea of a vegan martini bar and even though I hate paying high prices for fancy drinks, I had to try it. This place is teeny and very intimate, kind of giving you a speakeasy feel especially with all the current covid precautions. I imagine it fills up fast during non covid times and may feel a bit cramped.
Read moreThere's a food menu and I opted to have the cheeze plate and found it all to be quite delicious. Sounds like they use Miyokos cheese which I love. The bruschetta and tapenade that came along with it were very good as well. My martini was fabulous, I have never had such a delicious drink, could be since I don't often opt for these types of fancy drinks, but I like to believe this one was extraordinary. My partner opted for a much more boring drink and I think he made a bad choice. I do hope to make it back here again someday, hopefully in a time when things seem more normal, but I am happy the remain open and able to provide tasty vegan options.
