Small but excellent whisk(e)y selection as well as good list of cocktails. The back patio makes for a great spot to smoke a cigar.

Dog "friendly" but sometimes they are shitty about it and pretend they have a "no dogs after 7pm" rule.

This place is bullshit. Dog friendly on the patio, but Lil 🐻 was denied entry because he is half pit.
