I don't know about their normal business model as we were just there for their Hopscotch day parties. The music lineups were great. The bar staff was helpful. The slushies were tasty. The beers were reasonably priced. The music shows were hosted outside, which worked out really well since the weather was good. The only real issue was the fact that there's a huge dumpster right next to the outdoor space that stunk to high heaven. Pretty off-putting.

Love this bar, love the music and dancing, quality curated space for a long time running, bartenders are great. I can’t get here often enough but always have a fun time when I do. Most of all I love their no b.s attitude, high standards and particularity. The nightclub / service industry has to cater to alot of fools, especially those who think they are welcome to spew their rhetoric whenever wherever but are turned off by a set of unwavering principals with backbone. Expect fun and togetherness for all ye compassionate partygoers. Dog bless America.

A bar who shamelessly allows profanity and driving an agenda? 🤦🏻‍♂️ No thank you. I'll go when the bar gets new management. 👋🏻
