This approximately 2,500 square-foot cocktail bar is located at the corner of East Jones and Broadway and is designed to offer an elevated yet inviting nightlife experience. Developed in joint venture with Jason Moran Collaborative, the project blends timeless bar culture with a contemporary sense of space.

Specializing in both classic and signature cocktails, the space features refined finishes, moody lighting, and elegant detailing that sets the tone for an intimate and sophisticated atmosphere.
