Nine reasons not to leave for dinner

Every kitchen is run by people we hired rather than licensed, and every menu changes when the supply does.

Southern · $$$

Rowhouse

Catfish, greens, cornbread and a pork shoulder that goes on at four in the morning.

Cocktails & records · $$

Eleven hundred records behind the bar and a rule that anyone can request one, once.

Coffee & counter · $

Coffee, biscuits and a counter where half the room is carrying an instrument case.

Late kitchen · $$

Opens when the first set ends and serves until the last person leaves.

Practical

Every kitchen keeps an allergen matrix at the pass and every menu is available in large print. Tell whoever seats you and they will tell the kitchen.

Welcome everywhere except the gaming floor and the bars after 8 PM. There is a proper children's menu rather than three fried things.

Full vegetarian and vegan options at every venue, not a single substitution, and gluten-free bread made rather than bought in.

There is no dress code anywhere. We ask for smart dress in one room late in the evening and we ask it kindly.
