Known forpatio barnightlifedowntowngroups
A lively downtown bar with a large outdoor patio that's one of the best people-watching spots in the city. Known for strong, reasonably priced cocktails and a fun, unpretentious crowd. The vibe shifts from after-work casual to late-night party as the evening progresses. It can get very loud and packed on weekends, which is either a feature or a bug depending on your mood.
