Live acoustics
Steinway grand piano
Wooden sprung dance floor/stage

The distinctive decor includes art, furniture, and embellishments crafted by local artists, including Ashley Hamilton, Andrew Nigh, and Stephen Terlizzese. Our restrooms have recently been transformed into full art installations by Alecia Vera Buckles, Sara-Ann Waggoner, and Justin Butts (MuteOn).
Even the piano is one of a kind, reportedly once a fixture in the famous Birdland jazz club in New York City.
