The Bar

Cocktails in a minor key

An intimate parlor bar inside an 1871 landmark, open to hotel guests and neighbors alike, five nights a week, directly across from Music Hall.

The Pour

Composed behind the bar

The signature list is built on premium spirits, seasonal ingredients, and infusions we make in-house. Prefer a classic? We pour those properly too, alongside wine, beer, and appetizers to keep the evening going.

Settle into the parlor with a drink and a board game, catch up with friends before curtain across the street, or end the night with something stirred and slow.

  • Signature cocktails
  • House-made infusions
