Drinks & Nightlife
Our favorite bar. Quirky and local with solid cocktails, vinyl jazz early on. Around 9, old school 3 piece live jazz kicks in with hammond organ, sax, and guitar. No cover, just offer what you will.

Three of the 4 owners are "cicerones", in fact, one of them wrote the study guide on it. Cicerones are in the beer world what someliers are to the wine world. What does mean? A rotating menu of some of the most interesting and well crafted brews you are likely to find in one place. They also make some pretty great cocktails.
