Parlor Jazz and Cocktails on a Brooklyn Night
A Brooklyn night that starts with espresso and focaccia sandwiches, moves to fresh pappardelle on a backyard patio and seasonal cocktails at a quiet bar, then ends with straight-ahead jazz in a 19th-century brownstone parlor.


Straight-ahead jazz plays live in the parlor of a 19th-century brownstone at 107 Macon St, paired with a Southern-style fish fry and community hospitality. Drinks and snacks are bring your own, so stock up before you arrive.
