Tea Dance at Club Café is that rare event that gets better as the afternoon goes on, with strong drinks and an increasingly spirited crowd. Show up early or stay late; either way, you'll understand why this has become the neighborhood's favorite reason to dance on a Sunday.

No cover, always an open mic — singers are genuinely welcome to join in.

Speed dating meets board games at Club Café — a night designed to help you find a date, make friends, or just discover some genuinely fun games.

Worst case: good drinks and a solid game night.
