Uh, I've come to understand
that this place closed like a week after it opened. Shame, as it was
pretty well decorated and reasonably grown up in its atmosphere. Of
course, we were only two of about eight people in the place on a Friday
night. Hopefully we looked a little less confused than the other patrons
who warily looked around at the copper and wood bar that looked almost
too classy for the neighborhood. For all the effort that went into
the joint, there certainly seemed to be an air of doom about it. Seems
we weren't far off. Their website doesn't seem to mention the closing,
but their number is disconnected. I'm sure some shameful Irish pub
has already opened in its place. Viva Bush's economy! [MF] |
