Sip colorful creations, craft beer, wine, and spirits surrounded by neon lights, old Hollywood photos, and exposed brick while you cozy up on padded and pillowed seats. There may not be a kitchen but they welcome and encourage you to order from neighboring restaurants such as Last Slice or Right On Burgers.
