This is a hard one for me ... The charm of Melindas alley is that no one use to know about it. You would go in have a nice cocktail nefore a big night of fighting crowds. Now you go in and its kinda a tourist spot ... People in there taking a bunch of pictures having to be shoulder to shoulder waiting 30 minutes for a drink... Don't get me wrong the drinks are still amazing and the bartenders are always good . just got to big for its own space and lost its vibe that I enjoyed .
