    Great beer selection, delectable bar food, and cool decor!! Good atmosphere with indoor & outdoor seating, although it's usually a bit on the loud side here.

    1920's speakeasy bar with massive balcony overlooking the state library! Cocktails, beer and some serious spirits! Great selection of food and prices to match!

    Sometimes it can be abit rowdy but they have some incredible happy hour specials. ½ meals after 11pm (wed-sat) is one to be remembered

    The security guy is really rude. I went there with 2 friends, we were gonna go in and he suddenly asked whether we drank something else before, whether we would make trouble. We hadn't, it was weird.

    Worst Buffalo Wings I've ever had... Sauce was way too sweet and not that tangy way it usually is. Included tiny amount of blue cheese sauce and that was mainly water

    Don't eat here. Waiter is rude, we had 12 ppl booked for 8.45pm & were told by 10.30to pay & leave dining area for late diners. We then drank @ bar & observed dining area was total empty. Bad service.
