The Basement offers a classy atmosphere with phenomenal staff and entertainment. The space can get crowded, and while some feel that seating could be more expansive, it remains a great place to enjoy performances and chat with others. The venue hosts DJs playing music from different decades, making it perfect for dancing and having a fantastic night. The music is always good, and many enjoy the fun dancing experience. Although some suggest more drink options and mention that drink prices could be better, the bar offers local brews, international imports, and tasty non-alcoholic beverages. The venue has no cover charge during the week, and the weekend cover fee is usually affordable. Overall, it's an enjoyable spot for a night out, especially during special events like the New Years Bash, conveniently located on the plaza.
