4 months agoDefinitely one of the coolest spots in the Mid-Hudson Valley right now. Excellent cocktails, great food options, awesome staff, and the best entertainment in the area. It's a home run. Ovid and his team knock it out of the park here and I hope they continue to provide excellent vibes for years to come
Elio Vezza
11 months agoAbsolutely without a doubt the best live music venue in the Hudson Valley. Incredible live sound. Immensely friendly staff. An insane variety of events, shows, and DJs. I don’t even drink and I have an absolute blast every single time I go there. All of the love to Meg and her team. One of my favorite places to go to a show
