Beyond that, there’s a narrow hallway leading to staff offices, which eventually opens up to a spacious crafting room. I wish these areas could be blended a bit more since the hallway feels more like a barrier than an inviting pathway. I found myself bouncing between friends at the front and those at the back, but once I got into crafting, I stayed in the main room, which left us separated. I'm a bit concerned that guests might enter through the front and end up stuck at the bar without realizing they can venture into the crafting area—it would be a shame if they missed out. Perhaps displaying more information about the crafts (including prices and instructions) in the bar area would encourage people to explore further. It would also help if the bartenders were familiar with the crafting options, as they could share that info with customers when taking orders. Cross-training the staff could enhance the integration of the arts and the bar. The atmosphere is very relaxed—though there are a few hipsters around, it feels more welcoming than overly trendy. It was lovely to see the owner's mother from the Midwest visiting to support her daughter, especially since we were there on International Women's Day, which added to the empowering vibe.

It feels like two places in one. The art side is bright and lively, while the bar side offers a cozy, relaxed ambiance. I'm a big fan of the nitro coffee; it's super smooth! Plus, it's great that the friendly staff deliver drinks to you while you paint or work on your crafts!

Loves the adult craft and it is a very pleasant setting to hang with old friends or meet new people. You clean your station and stuff for you and offer aprons! You can also bring your own craft, although I always like to buy a few projects and supplies if I can:
