Description
The layout splits cleanly between two distinct rooms. Up front, a narrow, memorabilia-lined bar holds a scattering of high stools, cold beer, and a single pool table. Beyond it, the space opens into a wider back room focused entirely on raw, unapologetic live sets ranging from rock to folk and indie acts, supported by fast bar service.
