Such a cool place!! I loved all the different bar levels underground. I'd never been to a place like it. It was a little crowded and very lively. People seemed friendly. The crowd was not a rowdy bunch; it was a late 20s-30s type of crowd. It was a nice hangout spot for me and my group that night. I tried their Belgian Strawberry Beer and it was delicious!

It's got the wow-factor. Pink neon lights and bottle after bottle decoratively donning the walls.

There's a great selection on draft on all bars. It just makes a nice change not to have the choice of C arlsberg or Carling. I had a little dram of them all, as is the custom and settled on a nice Chiller. Yum Yum...more
