The folks behind this neighborhood bar pitch it as a sports lounge. And, they have experience with both as owners of Copa and Redmond's. This new venture is more lounge than sports bar with amber lighting, exposed stone and dark wood. Its two separate rooms each have their own bar and wait service. Garage doors serve as its front facade and open during the summer months. The food is a step up from the average bar grub with specialty soups and salads.
