We meet upstairs and always stay past 10pm if you can’t make it til a little later. Pool table is first come, first serve. Bartenders are swift, food is tasty with lots of veggie options too, and the company is absolutely queer and joyful. The downstairs is also a welcoming spot for those looking for a quieter scene or who want no stair climbing.
