This lounge way uptown features three distinct rooms and hosts comics, live music and more, as well as featuring a pool table and a third floor packed with plush furniture.

Coolest, hippest vibe on the west side. Once inside you'll think you're in soho or east village

by columbiabarhopper

DJs on Thursdays, Fridays & Saturdays. Guy named Joe looks like the plumber, but goes back as a DJ to the 70s and HAS THE TOUCH. A giant screen shows sports in front bar and the back lounge--grotto-esque--shows and plays vintage videos on another giant screen (see Mick showing "Sympathy for The Devil" as John Lennon dances like a Beserker, or Bowie as alter-ego, Ziggy Stardust). Plus, sporting a great pool table makes this an absolute F-I-N-D.

With all the different underground spaces, you can be mobile and meet some interesting people. My date loved it, too. Had the best time. We danced our heads off and met cool folk. One of them plays in a bank there weekdays with no cover, which we plan to check out. Plus, the foods even great.

  • Pros: Intimate space, outdoor patio for smokers, great eats and inexpensive
  • Cons: a little slow to get food

Good Bands Only

by intownbob

The place is intimate, the drinks are good and the bands can be true artists. Great musicians and serious singers are invited to play there. If you want to sit back, drink and hear fabulous music this can be the place. Some dumps in town invite real amateurs to play and you leave with a headache. If you like music and people this is the place!

  • Pros: Good Music, Good Service, Great Find
  • Cons: Sometimes Crowded, Dancing Can Be Tight

Pretty funny

by poodlefan

Went to the comedy club act Friday night - cozy little space, hard benches if you sit along the wall, feels warm enough to make you sleepy if the comedian's not hitting the mark. But we had a fun time, and the $8 cover wasn't hard to take.

Everyone is close to the stage because it's so small, which can be good or bad. You would never feel as though you're in Siberia.

  • Pros: small, banquettes are hard
  • Cons: small, a little warm
