Almost as far off-off-broadway as you can get but well worth the trek for their Shakespearian improv, naughty burlesque or sidesplitting comedy.
Not the cleanest or nicest park around, but it does have its charms – for instance, it hosts the largest Halloween Dog Parade in the country!
We’re longtime fans of this old school lounge that full of personality and cheap drinks. Its even better when there’s a live band playing.
A really fun spot to dance, catch a live show and have a few too many drinks! Just be warned that there’s a cover and that the bathrooms aren’t too nice.
Easy-to-miss venue with avant garde performers you won’t find anywhere else. No advance ticket sales, so be prepared to wait or even get turned away.
Home not only to amazing spoken word performances, but sexy Burlesque and hilarious Bingo. The real poetry is in the men’s room – try not to add you own.
Check out the seasonal cocktail menu at this Northern European inspired joint. We love almost everything on their Winter Warmers menu. Or just get a pitcher of the Raider.
Put this place on your list of go-to spots for creative, funky and delicious cocktails! Try The Situation, Charmane’s Star or The Guv’nor!
We always learn a trick or two from the friendly bartenders who are more than happy to share! Be brave and try the Commando Cocktail. Go sweeter with the Sherry Cobbler!
Go straight upstairs to the bar and order your drinks from their incredibly good looking bartenders! We’ll have a Buddha’s Prayer followed by an Ichabod’s Old Fashion.
Wanna know how to get in…leave your number with the bouncer and he’ll call you! Once inside, you’ll enjoy the best cocktails of your life…especially the Oaxaca Old-Fashioned.
You enter this speakeasy through a phone booth at the back of Crif Dogs. Once you do, you’ll enjoy amazingly made cocktails – try the Staggerac or an Old Fashioned. Reservations are required!
Leave it to one of the best vegetarian restaurants to produce one of the city’s best salads. Start with the delicious House Salad, or make a meal of the Si Se Puede.
Enjoy the surprisingly large-sized Spanish tapas and ask your waiter for a wine recommendation – they all seem to be wine connoisseurs. The space is tiny, so expect to wait for a table.
Support your city with dishes made from locally sourced ingredients. The wait for Brunch is shorter than dinner, and we recommend the buttermilk biscuits at brunch or the lamb shoulder for dinner.
