It's a fun bar with great cocktails. Be sure to hit up the happy hour. They also have a great pasta food truck. Sometimes there is live music and usually there is trivia on Tuesdays. Dog friendly.

Fantastic "secret" bar. They ask for a door code to get it. Maybe pretend you know it, and keep typing it in wrong? It worked for me once... It sounds pretentious, but they do have the best cocktails in the city, a live DJ, and swings.

THIS is a great toy store. You don't need kids to have fun here. While you're there, stop by at the candy store next door.
