Play Electric Six's "Gay Bar" (code C60265). It has a completely unrelated video that will make your night.
This place would be a lot busier if the hours were later, there was outdoor seating and you could sip a glass of vino. The indoor seating means you have to get the armchair or suffer discomfort. Yummy

Try to snag the comfy leather armchair to the right and around the corner from the front door. And don't miss the food--grilled corned beef & gruyere with a side of fries and a plate of pickles.
Most underrated brunch spot. You'll easily get a table 12-1. love the $5 champagne or breakfast negroni. Get Scottish eggs, waffle for the table and the kale salad (trust me on the salad)

good coffee, good baristas. excellent facial hair. try the grilled Swiss cheese with tomato

Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
