Amazing safe space for music and visual artists! Bar is well equipped. Small area outside for fresh air.

Hole in the wall bar with live shows and art gallery. Usually pretty empty. Projectors play music videos or art videos. Very cool place, seems underrated and fairly unknown. A few arcade games with change machine. Small bar area and not much seating. Great place to go to without plans.

Hosted a wedding for about 45 people here. It was a great value, and the owner was really helpful. The venue was really cool and worked well for all of us.

Fantastic intimate venue to see a locally curated performance. The art gallery stays fresh in the front room month to month. The bartenders are friendly and prices are reasonable. I've very much enjoyed playing/seeing shows here.

Also with a feel of intimacy, great for dates.Bartenders are always sweet.The owner is amazing and always engaging with the public. No stiffness always greatness. It's also an art gallery where helps artist showcase themselves and support themselves as well, every month there is a new exposition. Worth checking it out!

I usually come here on 2nd Fridays for SoulElectro house event for some of the best soulful house music this city offers. Terrific cocktails, plenty of space to groove & move. A winner on CapHill.
