This was my visit time visiting on a Wednesday evening. My cocktails were amazing. Thank you, Eric!
Loved celebrating a lil happy moment at this spot to manifest this unicorn more sparkles! Love the rotation of the eccentric menu- every cup is a lil adventure. Oh, and this will commemorate my 1st shotty of Malort!!
Pretty good beer, great cocktails and service!
