From the community
“Another little neighborhood bar..”
It's small but cozy, mostly a late-night bar where things get going and it becomes a bit cruisy with attractive people showing up.

“Comfortable place, mixed crowd, great staff!”
Stopped by late on November 20, 2009, and asked for a cheese tray, but was told the kitchen was closed since it was midnight. The manager made an exception and opened it up, and it was totally worth it. The cheeses were delicious and they had a great selection of craft beers. Perfect spot for a snack or a quiet chat. Will definitely come back.

“Great cocktails, wine & craft beer in one place”
Each time I visit, the server or bartender points me to exactly what I need. It's a mixed crowd most evenings, with a good atmosphere. Don't skip the food or the back patio.
