Very popular bar with the LARGEST patio, they feature things like a huge neon tree, hammocks, food trucks, movie nights, table service and cool outdoor movie via projector. If you're a fan of craft beer they have a TON on tap. It's a beautiful space. There's also a pizza joint (my personal favorite) right next door and they will bring your pizza over to you at the bar.
