Writing a late review, but I had a chance to stop by as a tourist with a small group when a local friend was showing us around. We came on a weekday night and the bar was really nice and cozy. The atmosphere was really fun.

I went into this gallery looking forward to the art (and to get away from the busy streets) and it did not disappoint. Had a chance to speak to the artist about her art and enjoy it whilst drinking a few beers. Great hidden spot to appreciate the art of very talented local artists. Enjoy your hidden gem!
