An interesting concept for a drinking establishment, this one resembles a ‘60s-era salon, complete with pea-green drying chairs and bubblegum-pink fixtures. Occasionally you can even see real manicures in progress during prime party hours. It’s decidedly a major hipster hangout, with similar counterparts in Vegas, San Francisco and New York. It gets very crowded though, so show up early to stand a chance at getting a drink. And you’d better be in your tightest jeans and best vintage Keds, or you’ll feel most uncool.
The haiku version:
Hipster party spot
Doubles as a chic salon
If you’ve got the shoes
