RESERVATIONS

Now accepting reservations through Resy! Click the tab in the menu to check out availability. 

Walk-in's always welcome!

We ask that you kindly honor the time of your reservation — we have a 15 minute grace period for your arrival, but due to the size of our sidewalk cafe and social distancing guidelines, we are unable to accommodate any increases in party size or change in reservation time. We allocate 90 minutes for parties of 2-3 guests and 2 hours for parties of 4+ guests. Please note all reservations are for DINING, not just drinking. 

WE DO NOT CHARGE CANCELLATION FEES IN THE CASE OF INCLEMENT WEATHER, so feel free to cancel on your own through Resy if the weather is discouraging you. This will not trigger an automatic charge.
