This was a nice backroom bar experience for my friends and I. As a lesbian couple the venue was open and friendly. The food was good and the drinks were well priced and tasty. The bartender was busy as would be expected from a nice place on a Saturday night, but the bar back was very attentive. I would have given this establishment five stars except the lack of parking leaves you stressing about finding a spot in a place you are unfamiliar with when you are trying to get to your friends. I would go back.

The Independent is a wonderful bar/restaurant. It has a good selection of Beers and ciders on tap as well as mixing some fine cocktails. One room has a tasty bar menu while the other is great for nice but not stuffy dining. Nice place either for a drink or for dinner

Excellent brunch options, great service, and scrumptious food. Awesome non-alcoholic cocktails too! Homefries are cooked to perfections. Whole family loved it!
