This place is an incredible place to just vibe with nice people and amazing drinks. The bartenders were so cool and my girl took the best pic of me. The dj was playing great music to vibe and dance too.

Was very disappointed. As a stand alone bar it would have been fine, but we had to pay a $10 cover when there was a total of 4 people in the bar the entire time we were there. I’m okay with paying a cover, but there needs to be a return.

Nice to see a basement dive/live music venue w/ some atmosphere for a change. I dig the set-up & it doesn't sound bad for such a small spot. Bartender was easy going too. Saw some punk & metal bands here rockin', locals & out of towners to boot. Worth checking out

Cool bar with a pinball machine and live music. The bathroom door didn’t lock which is my only complaint.

We danced and drank here last night and the vibes were superb. There was some kind of disco theme that night and everyone was dressed in bell bottoms and sparkly clothes and it was a real good time. Music was on point for dancing and the atmosphere was neon-dive-perfection.

Underground bar. Nice ambiance, kinda grungy, definitely a vibe. Now the drinks were not great. We got espresso martinis… and no... They came out of a cooler looking contraption.. looks like it could’ve been sitting in there for a while. Anyways, I’d come back for the music 🙂
