Attended an icebreaker get together, celebrating Start High School's class of 1973's reunion. Nice venue with excellent service. We didn't enjoy any food options, hence no rating. Overall a great experience.

On a busy Saturday night, my friends and I ventured into Alleyway Bar, eager to embrace the lively atmosphere. Upon entering, we were greeted by a vigilant security guard, adding a sense of assurance to our visit. The split-level design of the bar was an unexpected delight, with the upper portion providing a serene retreat from the main bustle, perfect for engaging in conversations or unwinding with a game.
Navigating through the throng to reach the main bar was a test of patience, and once there, the struggle to secure a drink was real. The limited selection of craft beers left aficionados wanting, and even a simple order seemed to stretch out into eternity due to the overwhelming demand and the evident strain on the bartenders.
Opting for the patio, we hoped for respite from the clamor, only to find it equally packed. The inability to find a place to comfortably socialize eventually led to a heated altercation and police intervention, prompting us to cut short our visit. As we made our hasty exit, we were astounded to find a winding queue of eager patrons eagerly anticipating their turn to enter the bar.
Reflecting on the evening, while the Alleyway Bar flourished with energy on weekends, I couldn't help but consider a return visit during a quieter time or in the daylight. The enchanting music certainly left an impression, and despite the challenges, I am intrigued by the possibility of leisurely sampling their cocktail offerings and menu in a more tranquil setting.

Nice atmosphere. Drinks are okay and decent prices. The food menu is small. Good for a quick stop. Would come back.

Bartending ignoring guests while taking shots with her friends, charged for drinks we never get.
