A wonderful place to go. Although I’ve had some experiences with An ex partner who to belittled me and said bad things about me to the ownership. Now I have been a constant customer for the last 10 years. I have done nothing but promote attract customers. Basically an ambassador. However, I was 86 because my ex cast dispersions upon me.And the people that were my friends. Took their back to me. I will not go back as of soon. But once MANAGEMENT and myself clear this up I’m sure that it will be my home bar again. But do enjoy this establishment.!!!

This is a really good environment not a lot of young souls here but it’s a very nice environment to be In every one is respectful and the bartenders look sociable, although they should probably talk more to their new customers overall

Yelp/Apple Maps said they open at 10, but Google said 11. We got there at 1030 but they so kindly opened early for us. We were traveling with luggage so we were beyond grateful. I can’t explain the kindness. Heavy pours. Felt the love. Thanks you guys. Saved you so we’ll definitely be back

Good pours and friendly staff! They have a gentle older crowd during the day and would recommend for those that enjoy conversation.

The Loft is a fun local bar to have a cocktail or two. The wait staff is good and there's a lot of places to hang out and stand around.
