My favorite downtown spot to catch great live music for free. Also a great spot to grab a cozy leather couch and catch up with some friends over some craft beers or their extensive wall of top shelf liquor.

This place is awesome. I was here around 5PM on a Saturday and it wasn't crowded at all. The bartender was amazing. He asked us what we liked and what we didn't like and made each of us our own individual cocktails. They were all great. Outstanding service. Outstanding selection of liquor - they have EVERYTHING - including Pappy. The ambiance was electric. Old school, leather couches, dimly lit, with a pool table around back. Just an awesome place to grab a drink or several. If you don't like crowds, I'd suggest going a little earlier in your night because I was told by the bartender and a couple that walked in that it can get very crowded later at night. What a great spot though - I'll def. be back.

Love it there every bartender is a master of their craft. Best drinks in downtown. If you can’t find a drink in that place I don’t know what you’re doing.

Desperately searching for a Sammy or Sam who was at Al’s Friday night January 19th who told my friend Polly she was beautiful and left. He has a mullet with shaved sides and very beautiful too please help us find him!!!

Fun place to go at night and the late afternoon. There's pool, darts, and pinball machines and the couches and board games around the bar are a nice touch. Drink selection is great and I would highly recommend this place to whiskey lovers.

my partner has a speech impediment and they refusesd to serve him meanwhile treating him like a drunk. they were disrespectful for no reason. The worst service while discrimimating against him meanwhile there were rude men making inappropriate comments the entire time we were in the establishment. Do not go here if you are a female trying to have a safe place to enjoy your night,

Absolutely love the vibe of this place the lighting is so cozy and it's warm, perfect to get away from the cold for a drink. They have lots of Couches and places to sit it was so comfortable and romantic to lounge with my husband on their Couches right by the window. They have an amazing alcohol selection and the bartenders are very friendly. They made me a killer long Island ice tea and a Malibu bay breeze. Prices aren't bad either! They have pool and darts as well. Definitely one of my favorite lounges in the area

My husband and I went here on my birthday because I wanted to try absinthe for the first time (a bucket list item for me). I loved the very relaxed and comfy vibe of the place, which suits my style. I loved that they had multiple brands of absinthe to choose from, including the brand I wanted. The bartender was skilled in terms of preparation and also filled in some of the gaps in my theoretical knowledge when I asked. (I appreciated that he didn't condescend or mansplain.) The drink was delicious and I enjoyed it. (My husband was just there to support my birthday wish and was nursing a diet Coke, but he did try a sip of my drink and liked it, too.) I was also pleasantly surprised by the price. I'd been prepared to pay more, based on... every other drink I've ever ordered anywhere. All in all, it was a perfect, laid-back, but fun birthday experience. As an introvert who mostly likes quiet (until I'm in the mood to rock out), I chose a Monday night specifically hoping to avoid a noisy crowd, and there were a bunch of other folks there, but there was plenty of personal space and I could carry on a conversation with my husband and the bartender without shouting.
