Birthday Party · 40 guests
The venue was so cool and was the perfect place for my birthday party. I loved the downstairs speakeasy room with lights, tvs, place to plug in music, and overall vibe. There was a great mix of tables and standing room for my guests. The manager and bartender were both very inviting and accommodating. The DJ who came at 10pm was also great! It felt like private club down there which was awesome.
I was quoted the all you can drink package price with a speciality cocktail was $60 but wasn't told that the price doesn't include tax or tip which brought it up to a total of $80. I wish this was communicated beforehand.

We rented the room downstairs and it was great! Loved the decor and that we could play our own music. Drinks and food were great too!
