Drinking Buddy chose this place, she is a big fan of jazz apparently. And, even though we were in a mellow mood, edging towards the end of the night, and therefore I wasn’t in ‘full critic’ mode, it definitely requires a second visit.
After paying a minimal cover charge, and being told that downstairs where the live music was playing was at capacity, we wandered upstairs. After picking out two glasses of lovely Malborough sauvignon blanc, Drinking Buddy and I just relaxed into the evening. With a side serve of being entertained by the birthday party surrounding us.
It was lovely, having talked ourselves out at the previous three venues, just to be quiet and share the moment together. And people watch.
Though that is more a vision of the dynamic between me and Drinking Buddy, rather than the bar itself. Though by that stage of the night, on the bar itself, it was mellow, the staff served efficiently enough, it was a nice place to quietly relax.
Verdict: lovely first impression. Will have to go again to double check
