"I like the vibe of this place! It with the soft blue lighting, it feels like a jazz bar. As a bonus, the guy checking ids (at least when I went) was the top MMA fighter in Winston, so the place is definitely safe from anyone who would want to cause trouble. The music is upbeat and loud enough that dancing is much easier than talking, so it would be a good dance place. The only problem is there isn’t much space to dance, unless you did it in the line of fire for the dart game and I wasn’t drunk enough last time to try that. There’s always next time, though…."

"Great environment, Classy, nice atmosphere, I love the balcony! Affordable drinks.... it's a yes for me!!!"

"The bartender Hannah was super nice and friendly. The drink was great and very reasonably priced. It’s a good bar to chill"

"I honestly am torn between giving this bar the recognition it deserves and keeping it hidden as a wonderful secret spot in Winston. I love the staff here, who are knowledgeable, courteous, and honestly care how you're doing. You're made to feel like a regular on day one. The crowd is always small but courteous and friendly. Well-behaved dogs are welcome and there's an open patio for smokers that is steps away from the bar itself. The place is cozy and small, but it's not lacking in anything but a kitchen. While I wish food was always available, the staff have no issue with you bringing in outside food, and they prepare food for Trivia Tuesdays. This is a perfect mix between classy and casual. Don't expect a raging party or rowdy customers, because it's not that kind of bar. What you will find is a wonderfully friendly crowd of interesting people, a personable and experienced bartender, and a great time."
