What People Say

Guests rave about the chill vibe, friendly bartenders, and music selection—DJs spinning hip-hop, R&B, and dance tunes keep the energy up without overwhelming the room. Reviewers also love the dim, moody lighting and the intimate feel that makes it easy to strike up conversations. Many mention it as a great hidden gem that’s perfect to start or end the night.

Areas for Improvement

It’s worth noting that there’s no food menu, so you’ll want to eat before you arrive. Also, on weekends The Room can get pretty packed after 10 PM, so if you're catching a later show or just want a relaxed drink, try to go early for seating. Parking in the area can also be tricky, so rideshare is your friend here.
