Was Sean Barron at The Griffin a mag?
Great small bar. Very clean. Limited on beer selections huge on mix drink selections. I would recommend better lighting, its no fun to use your cell phone to light up your own table. Way to dark at night. View all feedback.

The drinks are fantastic, and the atmosphere is clean and welcoming. The staff is incredibly friendly, too!
Exceptional cocktails in a contemporary cocktail bar. The decor is thoughtfully designed, featuring rotating local artwork. The service is excellent, and there's an outdoor patio perfect for enjoying the long summer days or any time of the year!

A lot of people would do anything to own a space in Arcata with a liquor license and it’s sad and unprofessional that they can’t use it correctly.
