Wolfe & Porter | Cellar Liquor Bar

Things are really heating up on Morgan Street since Wolfe & Porter opened earlier this year!

Heights House Parlor

In the fall of 2023 the owners of Heights House bestowed a unique honor upon the individuals and businesses who supported their vision and helped make Heights House the beauty it is today. They did so by crafting a menu that features 6 signature cocktails dedicated to and named after those who played an integral role in the design of Heights House. What’s more is they did it so thoughtfully; with each cocktail truly embracing the essence of its namesake.
