Entry was a breeze--just $20 combined--and accessing the main room was straightforward. I've been coming to this bar for years, though it's been a while since my last visit, and I have to say, I absolutely love the vibe now! The changes they've made--turning it into an '80s-themed space--are fantastic. We had an amazing time, and the atmosphere was just right. The only downside is that it does get pretty hot in there; better AC would make it even better. Still, I'll definitely be returning for more night adventures! One more thing I did not get a chance to try their drinks since I don't drink alcohol but will definitely ask if they make mocktails.

There was also a wide variety of drinks to choose from, which made it easy for everyone in our group to find something they liked. The servers were attentive, and the space itself was large enough to comfortably accommodate our big group. The seating was comfortable, and the lighting added to the relaxed atmosphere. It would have been even better if there had been a DJ that night, but overall the vibe was still great. Really cool spot, and I look forward to coming back again.

Allyson and Steffan, the General Manager, were both so welcoming. This review is based on our drinks -- we ordered a Lemon Drop Martini and an Orange Blossom Martini, and both were very good. There was also a pianist performing, which added a nice touch, though it was a bit hard to hear and hold a conversation due to the holiday rush. Overall, we loved the ambiance and would definitely return. Just keep in mind that seating is limited and on a first-come, first-served basis.

Unfortunately, it wasn't as great as I hoped. My favorite of the night was definitely the Pineapple Crazy Day, a super tasty double IPA with an impressive 8.0% ABV. We got a bit hungry and ordered through the QR reader of Craftz Lounge the focaccia pizza and ribeye-loaded tots. Both were flavorful and definitely on the greasy side -- but in the best way, perfect for pairing with beer. The atmosphere is cool and relaxed. The guy at the register (I wish I remembered his name!) was really nice and knowledgeable about the beers, which made the experience better. Bathrooms are just okay -- they share them with other businesses, so nothing special, but functional. Overall, a fun spot to hang out, grab a bite, and enjoy a few beers.
