"I recently ently visited Altered State Distillery and had an excellent experience. The staff was knowledgeable and welcoming, and the atmosphere made for a relaxing afternoon. I tried a whiskey flight, which was a great way to sample several of their unique offerings — each one was well-crafted and flavorful. The standout for me was their rye whiskey, which had such a smooth, balanced profile that I ended up purchasing a bottle to enjoy at home. I appreciate the passion and care that clearly goes into every bottle they produce. If you’re in the area and enjoy craft spirits, I highly recommend stopping by Altered State Distillery. It’s a great spot to learn about their distilling process, try something new, and support a local business."

"This is a must-visit distillery in the Erie area. The atmosphere is a blend of modern and rustic, creating a comfortable and relaxing vibe. The service is friendly, attentive, and skilled in crafting high-quality cocktails. Every drink our group tried was fantastic, garnering nothing but rave reviews. We also sampled most of the appetizers, which, while limited in selection, were thoughtfully paired with the drinks. The only downside was visiting during a live band performance. The space is too small for live music, making it so loud that we couldn't hear ourselves speak. While this isn't a regular occurrence, it's something to be aware of. If you're looking to enjoy drinks and conversation, it's best to avoid visiting when a band is scheduled to perform."

"We went there for brunch today and it was fantastic! The Butter Pecan French Toast was seriously amazing! The Strawberry Shortcake with homemade whipped cream was also delicious. The drinks are always made to perfection; I had the mimosa flight and my husband had a Bloody Mary. One of my favorite date places in Erie :)"

"I come for the music here from NC. The owners love music too. And their award winning liquor selection is tasty and they serve food now. Bring a chair, just in case and enjoy the friendly atmosphere."

"Not impressed. Service was super kind, but the food. Awful. Ordered three meals. Asked for the burger to have no egg yolk. Burger arrives.... Not only with yolk but it's broken all over the burger. Ordered the skillet. Oops. Didn't get the side of salsa. Oops, that's a large piece of bone that just found its way to my teeth. Ordered a generic breakfast meal ... I have witnessed better food from hole in the wall bars. Absolutely horrendous. For the prices, this place is absurd. Sad. I really hoped it was going to be awesome. Suggestion: replace the kitchen staff with competent cooks."
