Narrow Lounge

Editorial Review

The red light means (open for) business at Main Street's fun fulcrum. BYOV (vinyl) and spin it yourself on a turntable open to the many thrifters and record shoppers stopping for in for a bite or a wee dram under antlers and hot bordello wallpaper. Stick-to-your-ribs fare like mac & cheese and stew are perfect with apricot wheat ale or a glass from a modest but solid wine list. Cozy vibe under the antlerarium and antique ceiling, but if you're lucky enough to catch the sun, the tiki-inspired patio in the alley - where you're entertained by both iPod and 8-track - is the only place to be.
