What’s on, and what’s poured
The music is the point. The bar is why you stay for the second set.
-
Wednesday and Thursday: the residencies
The same trio each week, playing standards the way they want to. Come in after work; the first set starts at eight.
No cover
-
Friday and Saturday: touring players
Quartets and singers passing through between bigger rooms. Two sets, and the second one is usually the better one.
$10 after nine
-
Sunday jam
The house rhythm section from eight, and anyone with a horn and the nerve. The best night of the week, some weeks.
No cover
-
The room, for a private night
Sixty seated at tables or 90 standing, in 1,100 square feet, on a Monday or Tuesday. The piano is tuned that afternoon, and the bar is ours.
From $900
Not included: the band, from $600 for a trio
-
Cocktails
Twelve on the list, all classics or close cousins, stirred properly. The Old Fashioned is the one people come back for.
$13 to $16
-
Wine and whisky
A short list of each, chosen to drink rather than to read about.
$11 to $18 a glass
