We are Queer Women owned and proud that we NEVER ONCE sacrificed our morals and beliefs for ANYONE!
Join us for one last Friday and remember the times we had together, the joy we shared with our community and the fun we had along the way.
All day long, stop by in your coziest jammies, share stories and memories with all of our beloved regulars and friends. We encourage everyone to use our camera to take pictures together in your favourite spots around the taproom! There will also be a letter box for you to write out your notes to the owners and staff!
