Even though there were two waitresses at the bar, they were both absent for 10 minutes, making it impossible to get a drink. We had just paid $12 to get in, and we couldn't fully enjoy our evening.

The staff were all super friendly and it was easy and quick to order!
We went twice and both times there was live jazz with different instruments and vibes but both fantastic!

We walked in hoping to catch some live music, but before we even settled in to decide whether the $12 cover was worth it and which drink to get, the owner’s abrupt and dismissive attitude made the decision easy. His approach and comments about not providing a public service created an unfriendly atmosphere right away. When I asked about sugar‑free drink options due to high blood‑glucose levels, letting the owner know I was diabetic, the response was just as dismissive. A simple question became an uncomfortable interaction. As people who work in the live entertainment industry, it did not feel like a place that values its patrons or its artists; the owner seemed more interested in using music and art to charge, rather than as an experience to enhance. Though the musicians were good with some exceptional talent, we chose to leave

Great little bar. Unique upstairs where you look right down over the musicians, reasonable acoustics and you get an unparalleled view of them playing.

A beautiful gem just steps away from St Jean with live jazz jam sessions every night! It’s an old building so be aware of needing to go up a winding stairway for the bathrooms and get there right at 8pm (for 9pm show) to get a good seat. It was warm, cosy, great staff, great vibes and a perfect place for a night cap (I mean for cocktails and beer, not much in the way of wine - so for a heads up!) a beautiful building steeped in history and feeling authentically local, given its location!
Hot, sweaty, cramped but great service and lots of jazz.
Worth it.

Tuesday night good jazz band. Monday night not so much. Come early to get a seat!
Very small. Drinks ok. Good price. No food was ok.
