Reviews for Dockum in Wichita, KS
A very cool spot in Downtown Wichita. Chill ambiance and smooth drinks.
It?s my 3rd time here. The drinks are great. The atmosphere is okay. For a place that brands itself on the courage and... history of black people, it is a shameful. Please, please be more culturally sensitive. At least show movies that show thathistory (the film showing tonight has a white man with a black face!) play music and invite artist that build on that tradition! Last time I was here, at least you had good music from black artist playing, today I was disappointed. I might try you again,but please stick to the tradition you claim! Read more
A fun experience. We had a reservation, you need to knock on the door. It was a first visit for some but not all. The cocktails... are interesting and hit or miss for me. The smoking gun is my husband's favorite but the smoker is broken. I had the berrybubbles...just ok buy pretty. The have a small food menu including a burger and cheese board. Read more
It was ok. Loved the speakeasy aspect, but the food was just ok and waayyy over priced! We had a not great experience in our... group. One of the ladies ordered a salad (which was nearly $20 btw) and she had not seen on the menu that it had anchovies andshe has an allergy. Yes, it was her mistake, but they brought her another one without and then CHARGED HER FOR 2 SALADS!! Eventhough they took the other one away. So when we all encouraged her to ask the server about it, the server said "Oh, I thoughtyou understood that you would be charged again" and refused to take it off. We then asked for a manager and he took it off.Thankfully. Because of this, I will probably never go back, but it was a cool one time experience. Read more
One of the most unique atmospheres you will find in Wichita! The drinks are a little more expensive than most places around town... but well worth it. We had a group of 6 and everything was amazing, I really enjoyed this place glad I gave them a try! Read more
Had a fantastic experience. We ordered the Preservation Board for an app to have with our cocktails. The drinks are awesome!... Great choices and great presentation/flavor. We also split the filet which was flavorful and cooked perfectly. Definitely lovethis speakeasy and will be returning with friends. Read more
What a fun experience! Classy without being stuffy. Although the waitress got a few of our orders wrong, we weren't charged for... them and the staff were all friendly. Make a reservation. Read more
Ordered the specialty drink ?The Smoking Gun??.according to their menu, it is smoked and served in a Dockum souvenir bottle?for... $18. Drink came in a regular glass, didn?t taste smoked at all and the server claimed she had no idea it was supposed to beserved that way and didn?t know how much the drink would cost. She brought over a Bic lighter (struggled to use it), to lightan orange peel for presentation (????????). All this and the fact that they were open but a wedding party was finishing up?.thelights were all the way up and it was so loud in here - ambiance was zero. Would not come back. I?ve been to a lot ofspeakeasies and this one was at the bottom of my list. Read more
