This is a great little gastropub with great food and drinks. I really love their Jayne burger and they have a special on Tuesday nights where you can get a Jayne burger and a beer for less than $20, which is a great deal for the quality! This is one of our favorite date night spots! I suggest taking an Uber since parking is limited, and it's cheap to get there and back to the studio!
