| - Went here for a recent work event, where we rented out the downstairs and had an open bar. Ok. Win. Definitely a great place for a casual work event, and a very cool location overall.
Pros:
- The upstairs is gorgeous. It used to be a indoor tennis hall, apparently, but was built back where architecture mattered, and it shows in this building. It's beautiful.
- The beer list. I was very impressed, and I'm kind of a beer fan. Lots of good local microbrews, a number of different rye beers on tap, and quite a few belgians/hard to find beers in the bottle. More importantly, everything was served in appropriate glassware, which surprised me in a place this large. Kudos to them for serving me an Orval in an Orval goblet.
- There's a 6-8 lane bowling alley in the basement! Never would have expected this. It was fun to bowl a few games while drinking some beers with colleagues.
Cons:
- The food was typical bar food. Chicken fingers, greasy pub pizza, etc. I wouldn't likely go back to eat, but I'd certainly go to drink some beers.
Overall, a good bar, and a great beer bar. It was very crowded, so don't expect peace and quiet. The food docks it a star though. Not great.
