Our full bar is open Friday and Saturday nights!

Our bar is currently only open Friday and Saturday night from 7pm-Midnight. We have beer, wine, liquor, and rotating cast of specialty cocktails. We have seating at the bar and in our garage patio, which we open up if weather permits. You must still be wearing a mask whenever you are not seated.

The bar is NOT open during the week, only 7pm-Midnight Friday and Saturday. Currently, you can not buy drinks and walk around the store with them. The bar's hours will likely change as COVID restrictions are eventually lifted.
