Overview

A tiny lounge in the back and a small pub like room in the front. It packs beyond capacity on weekends with a business casual contingent.

History

Two small rooms, open till 4 am

When we listed it, the Vig Bar had a tiny lounge in back, a small pub-like room up front, and weekend crowds beyond capacity. It dates itself to 1997, and its drinks menu still gives the address as 12 Spring Street¹. These days it stays open until 4 am, even on Mondays and Tuesdays².
