It doesn't offer food, but it's a very, very nice bar.

The worst atmosphere, especially if you're alone, and terrible service. I ended up being literally kicked out of the bar by some troublemakers and for not buying more than one beer. There are much better places that are far more worthwhile. The only redeeming feature was the music. I went twice. The first time was excellent—a rock venue run by a guy. The second time was the worst experience. There are definitely better places where you're treated with more respect.

This bar is fun and the area is great - a fun street with a half dozen other bars that make this a great area!
