This vegan bar could be described as a colorful cabin, with a large outdoor music venue behind it. The staff is fun, and in addition to kombucha on tap, they serve amazing organic juice blend cocktails, local beers, biodynamic wines, and organic cold teas. It’s a great place to have a drink and talk in the afternoon under the parachute-shaded patio, but also a serious music venue on the weekends, and often has movie screenings on other nights.
