Before you head over

Helpful tips on reservations, ordering, and venue accessibility before you go

  • Reserve Ahead for Indoor Dining

    Indoor tables are limited and weekend nights fill up quickly for live music, so reserving in advance is recommended if you want to dine inside.

  • Pay-As-You-Go Bar System

    The venue operates on a pay-as-you-go ordering system rather than running an open bar or table tab, so prepare to pay per round.

  • Mind Restroom Step Navigation

    Reaching the restrooms requires navigating down a couple of steps from the main floor, which may pose challenges for guests with mobility needs.
