Mezzanine Events
Our private Mezzanine space has leather couches and club chairs, as well as several bar height cocktail tables and stools, which you can move around into the configuration you choose. We offer seating for 60, but comfortably fit up to 120 standing.
We offer this space with your own bar and bartender(s) with flat-rate pricing depending time and day of the week. Pricing below is for any 4 hour block of service with 1 hour of setup/breakdown time included. Pricing INCLUDES ALL BEER for your event!
This space is up a flight of stairs and the bathrooms are on the lower level. This space is not accessible to wheelchairs or convenient for guests for whom stairs represent difficulty. We have other areas that will work better for you, if this is the case. You can still use the form below to inquire and let us help you.
