| - I've been coming to this place for about a year now and have only remembered to check in once, as of this review... I've totally been slacking. I host a trivia night here every other Tuesday (switching off every other time with one other co-hostess), so granted, I haven't been many times aside from those, but it's mostly like other nights, just with more people than usual. Chef Natalie of eat. restaurant (go check that out, it's amazing!) consulted on the menu here, and it's pretty damn delicious. I haven't had anything yet that I didn't like. The ambiance is like a mix of a laid-back coffee shop mixed with a vintage record shop, which is exactly what they were going for. If you want to go upstairs & wander around Emergency Arts, it's part of the same building. The staff is nice & the prices decent. The only drawback is that they don't start serving beer & wine until after 7pm, & I'd love to be able to kick back with a glass of wine late-afternoon there. But c'est la vie, the place is good at what they do, & if you want to sit back with a sandwich, a cup of coffee, and your trusty laptop, book, or pen & paper, this is a great place to do it. (Also, come to Downtown Trivia night every other Tuesday! It's fun, I promise, and you can win stuff. While you're at it, go check out some of their other themed nights, like open mic on Wednesdays).
