Hart Bar

An old-timey saloon look runs through the front room at Hart Bar, with a fern-lined patio off to the side and a basement given over most nights to noise and indie bands. The kitchen's whole ambition is a good grilled cheese, built for the walk home rather than a sit-down meal. Cocktails come strong enough that a Thursday nightcap tends to turn into a late one, and the basement's small dance floor keeps filling back up between sets.
