Can I provide my own catering?

Parties are welcome to bring in or have any food delivered to the bar during the party. Please be sure to bring all necessary plates, utensils, napkins, etc.



Can I provide my own decorations?

Yes! Please no confetti or glitter of any kind. Please no decorations that require holes in our walls or ceiling.



Can I hire my own DJ?

Unfortuantely, no. While completely private for parties, the back room shares the same sound as the front room. Additionally, we have weekend DJs that spin from 10pm-close. Party guests are welcome to make use of our jukebox full of the best funk, rock, soul, current dance jams, and classic hip hop.
