The karaoke experience is fun but the food takes way too long to arrive & it's not good at all.

Petit bar avec beaucoup d'ambiance. J'y étais pour une projection de courts films suivi d'une soirée karaoké. En repassant devant en fin de soirée, il semblait avoir beaucoup de plaisir à l'intérieur. Belle découverte de mon court séjour à Québec!

They have literally everything here... I've so far been there while it was a club, a comedy bar, a karaoke spot, outdoor restaurant, & just great food as a restaurant. It's the most versatile happening bar around.

J'adore cette endroit, il y a toujours des événements intéressants. Le lundi : pub Quiz, le mercredi : impro, karaoke & autres activités. Il manque un peu de variété pour les boissons alcoolisées, mais à part ça tout est parfait.
