Step “back in the day” to a time when having a cocktail was an experience to be savored. The Marquis Cocktail Lounge still remembers that era, and keeps the tradition of class and distinction very much alive in this charmingly laid-back nightlife venue. There's always relaxing, jazzy music playing and the people here are friendly but smart enough to give you your own space if you would rather just ease back and take it all in. This is a great place for a first date or meeting with a few friends for drinks and conversation.
