Our favorite bar for liquor drinks, especially during happy hour (thru 7pm) when you can get 2-4-1 beverages with housemade mixers, i.e. rum & clear cola. Gets bumping with DJ dance parties later on.

Total neighborhood bar with killer deck. All ages and walks of life frequent this place. Smoking is permitted, FYI, and it's often loud and crowded. Somehow we just keep going back, though. :)
