“ Great place, chill atmosphere. Love it’s a old Iconic Houston store made into a bar. Front display windows of the old store are now couch patios. Great for people watching! You can even sit at a table in the old elevator shaft with closing door. Bathrooms take a little thinking one has a key one the door the other a lock for the key.

“ The vibes in here are immaculate!! I love the sultry red lighting and the cozy couches. They also had the most bumping music! The drinks however are pricey. It was 75 for four double vodka redbulls. ”
“ Great vibe to this place! We went in around 8 pm on a Friday and things were laid back with an excellent, attentive staff. Love the comfortable couches inside and out. Stayed for a bit then kept exploring downtown. We came back around midnight and wow the party was jumping! Great experience both times and completely different. Would highly recommend!
