First time here with my besties and what a vibe! Not the biggest place but they definitely make the best of the space that they have. Beautiful decor inside and outside in the back terrace. Finding parking was tricky because we hadn't been here before but we figured it out.
My go-to spot. Always a beautiful atmosphere, always a vibe day or night. Staff is amazing.
This establishment was quite enjoyable for our first time, and the atmosphere was wonderful. Our bartender, Brie, was exceptionally attentive, ensuring our drinks were always full and on spot the whole night. We will return again... Tony N Patty

You want a place to be yourself, meet people that welcome you and have zero judgment?? Then Velvet Gypsy is the place for you. The staff is amazing, the vibe is nothing but positive and you would be supporting a small, locally owned business.
Solid bar with a very cool atmosphere inside and out! I went during the day on a weekend and it was pretty slow, but we were well taken care of by the staff. They do not sure food, but at time offer food trucks outside. Parking is limited. The highlight to this place is the well manicured outdoor seating area that is pretty relaxing when it's later in the afternoon and the sun is setting.
Wonderful bartender, great cocktails of all creative types . Cool atmosphere, bar but not dingy typical bar at all . Pretty back patio.. Highly recommended for a post or pre dinner drink. No food. Dogs welcome. Parking a little tricky but available
