Description
Opened in 2012 by three friends, this spot draws its name and concept from the 1953 Hollow Nickel espionage case. The menu leans into details like a spicy burger with a slow afterburn, Beyond burgers, fried pickles, and the Penicillin cocktail, alongside all-day drink specials. The room functions easily as a casual dive for solo drop-ins or groups, complete with friendly staff and the occasional TV screen showing drama series. It is also notably kid-friendly, making it a highly adaptable local hangout.
