Incredible atmosphere, wonderful music, and downright amazing owners. Steve Merriman is a very humble and inspiring man who knows his jazz.

Venue is nice and intimate... Only complaint was I used the bathroom after an old guy who had ZERO aim and flushing skills. Disgusting. At least there were lysol wipes close by for my shoes.

Really cool little spot. You definitely will have a one of a kind experience. Affordable ticket prices. Nearby street parking. Friendly staff. The popcorn and snacks are a nice treat for visitors. This was my first experience with jazz and I would definitely return. The seating situation is unique. You cant really sneak out without interrupting the performance so make sure you have everything you need before settling in

A wonderfully intimate jazz club where you can find great local talent as well as up and coming touring acts. Several touring groups whove performed here have earned 4 star reviews from Downbeat. The weekly Jazz Open Session is a friendly, welcoming environment for any serious jazz student/musician wanting small group performance experience without the pressure of playing at a gig.

A great place to come relax and enjoy a laid back true jazz experience. The open play nights where anyone can come and play are a lot of fun, you never know what to expect, and the formal concerts are great too. The Merrimans are top notch people, always feel welcomed here.
