| - if you know me from the talk threads then you will know i have been waiting on this place for a long time. so i broke my side bar cherry last night and walked over. got there around 11:30 and it was mildly busy, the bar was fully loaded with people and the lounge area was only occupied by one group of 8-9 in a corner. i was meeting Laura R and her sister for some fun and she asked me to get there ahead and get a table for 3. well...that wasn't a problem. i sat down relaxed a minute and the music was a nice volume..i could hear myself think right...well by the end of the night the music variety was all over the map, and the volume followed suit. there was time where i could not hear the person next to me, and it annoyed me.
the beer selection is good, lots of bottles, but they didn't really have the micro brew selection i was hoping for. it kinda seemed like they raided safeways beer selection, PBR, Miller, Coors, "Domestic Lager" section was large. not much local. and i think the IPA and Wheat beer selection was too small, Wheat beer is very popular right now, 5 choices seemed odd
i've noticed a few reviews of pricing oddities...well here is mine. i got 1 beer. i wasn't really thinking of getting drunk, just wanted to check out the place with good company. it was 5 bucks, Laura and her sis had 2 each, and paid 10. lol. i seriously need to get a vagina. wtf is that. lol.
oh well pretty girls should be allowed to get away with that, so i'm not mad.
i will deffinetly go back here. it's a short 15 minute walk from my apartment and the weather is nice out.
atmosphere of the bar is really cute, Ikea'ish for sure. the lounge was all high back booths and small round coffee tables and some pseudo design within reach white modern chairs and bubble-gumdrop ambient light. the bar is well lit which is a nice contrast to the lounge, which is not lit. i used my cellphone to read the beer menu. its the perfect hook up bar.
