Highly recommend stout beer and cocktails :)

Coffee shop upfront, bar in back. Skylight in back bar cool. Not a sports bar.

I really want to like this place (and may have left a positive tip before) but I just received a lime in my Negroni, and the wifi is a problem.

Pastries are perfect, and made me a hot chocolate that wasn't on the menu.

I was excited about it then the guy just forgot my order and the guy at the register wasn’t even that nice about it (considering they were the ones communicating my order to each other) ... 😏

Bigger than it seems, very laid back and good bartenders.

an ordinary bar that pretends to be hipster. the cocktails are from bad to ok, food is poor. don’t worth the visit as a bar.
