FUTURE EVENTS

This is a night for craft beer lovers and salsa/bachata dancers!

They also have a tasty food menu (including Vegan nachos…Colleen’s favorite)! The venue has a cool “gritty” feel to it…they plan on moving most of the tables out of the way to clear a sizable space for dancing. They also have a side room with two pool tables, a Foosball table, and corn-hole boards.
