⸻ Wine, Cocktails & Evenings In ⸻

One of our favorite traditions is "bring a bottle, leave a bottle" with the wine fridge. Bring a bottle to leave, and take a bottle left by a previous guest. We’ve seen wines arrive from Portugal, Spain, Italy, California, and beyond, making every stay a little different. (Please note that if the previous guest doesn't leave a bottle, the wine fridge might not be stocked for your stay. Please be a good community member to everyone and only take a bottle if you leave one yourself.)

Prefer cocktails? We’ve stocked quality barware and glassware so you can mix your favorite drink before heading out or after coming home from Broadway.
