The Story Behind Eleven: Southern Roots, Modern Flavor—A Cocktail Lounge Where the South Sips Stylishly

Let’s get this straight: Eleven isn’t your uncle’s dive bar—unless your uncle happens to be a retired jazz drummer with a taste for smoked bourbon and moody lighting.
Nestled in the heart of downtown Ocean Springs, Eleven is a cocktail lounge that channels Southern charm through a sleek, sultry lens. No kitchen. No entrées. Just expertly shaken libations, swanky vibes, and the kind of glassware that makes you sit up a little straighter.
The name Eleven? It’s a wink. A nod. A reminder that we don’t stop at ten. We take your classic night out and dial it up just a little more—to where the soundtrack is smoother, the garnishes are prettier, and the pour is just bold enough to make you blush.
Born from the spirit of Southern hospitality and raised on the rhythm of modern mixology, Eleven serves up handcrafted cocktails that tip their hat to Gulf Coast roots—think high-end riffs on porch sippers, juleps with a twist, and martinis with Mississippi soul. No bar bites needed. These drinks are the main event.
Whether you’re meeting old friends or making new mistakes, Eleven is where you go to toast to the good stuff—and look effortlessly cool doing it. Come for the cocktails, stay for the conversations, and remember: at Eleven, we don’t just pour drinks. We pour personality.
Welcome to your new favorite stop on the Southern sipping map.
