Alexis at The Gally



Alexis is another wonderful person who works at The Galley. Honestly, there are so many great folks at The Galley. Among them are Emily, Angie, Camilla…and some of the regulars make the place a great place to visit. Whoops! I don't want go off on a tangent!


Recently, one of my friends told me that she’d been to The Galley and loved it. She especially loved the bartender there. My friend had only visited once and she didn’t recall the bartender’s name. I described Alexis and my friend was certain it was her. Alexis etched herself into my friend’s brain because of her attentive service, engaging disposition and awesome cocktails after just one visit. Not a bad first impression. That's Alexis for you. Memorable after one visit.

I’ve known Alexis for several years now and I strive to make it in when she’s working. Sometimes we'll have a shot together if she's having a bad day or just for the heck of it. I don't always know what the shots are and it doesn't matter since they always rock.

Being a regular I have earned the honor of receiving shit from Alexis and I appreciate it. She’s not rough with new clientele unless you deserve it. Since Alexis knows me and I made the apparent mistake of ordering a particular mixed cocktail for which I was severely ridiculed. Rightly so I’ve been told. I had my reasons for ordering that cocktail, but I won’t bore you with details. Alexis informed me that it was a girly drink and after finishing my drink I challenged Alexis to make me a manly drink. That was my second mistake. Since Alexis is a friend I got a ride home that evening.

No watered down drinks here. Alexis simply won't allow it.

Thursday through Saturday.

P.S. - Alexis does more than sling the best cocktails on Main Street. She also slings the best spa products including bath salts, bath and shower gels and body lotions on the internet. If you don't believe me click on the link and see for yourself.
