Meg Lewis: Gorgeous zen-like backyard complete with live turtles and fish. Grab a craft beer, friends, and relax!
Monica Stangle: Hidden jem, great outdoor space, vegan food options.
Michael Kinney: Great place, except for the red-bearded jerk behind the bar who basically told us to quiet down because we were "the loudest ones in the bar". DUDE IT'S A BAR, NOT A LIBRARY. We immediately left.
