Everyone who works there is super friendly. The decor is great. It feels like a dark, dingy bar but it's really nice. The stage is set up well and you can see it well from anywhere you sit. There's also a patio area outside where you can smoke and there are televisions outside that show a live view of the stage so you don't miss your show if you step outside. They get some incredibly talented folks playing shows there. Highly recommend going on a night where they have Chicken S#*t Bingo. It's a lot of fun and super cheap to play.

The front desk staff was attentive and easy to scan our pre paid tickets. I did not try any food items but did have a drink from the bar. The bartender made it to my taste since I am not a heavy drinker , with a light hand as requested. Highly recommend all tourists to get it out- the parking lot has security guards and I felt safe inside as well.

    A friend was visiting (5/9) and we decided to dine in the Cooper - Young area for dinner. When we…read moregot to the area, we decided on The Beauty Shop. My friend owns a larger catering/events establishment in Georgia and was excited about the menu at the establishment. We walked in (on a whim) and asked if tables were available (clearly we saw some on the patio and inside once we entered). The greeting from the hostess was - let's just say less than inviting. . It was around 7:40p and she said "well since you don't have a reservation, the soonest I can get you in is 8p" ...no problem we will walk around until then. My initial thought, screw this reservation - if the hostess has this type of demeanor, what could we expect in terms of service? As my friend was still excited about the menu and to taste some of the pairings, we decided to wait. At 7:59 (like clockwork), the notice of our table being ready was sent. The hostess seated us and again, I wasn't optimistic of what would occur during the visit. The server that greeted us was GREAT!!! We ordered SEVERAL appetizers and drinks and all were AMAZING - (the grilled avocado with the shrimp was worth the trip alone). For dinner we ordered Peking Duck and Ribeye Steak Salads (and more drinks). Both were amazing. And while the desserts looked divine, there was absolutely no room. We were impressed with the old Beauty Shop decor - it really was a conversation piece. It's small and quaint and we had a lovely chat with the patrons alongside us. The food and service EXCELLENT! I'm glad that I didn't follow my first inclination to leave (because of the hostess and the "curt" demeanor). On a high note, I did notice the hostess being very gracious to the others that she encountered. Maybe it was my cologne - not everyone likes to smell YSL ‍.

    I'm disappointed to update my review to two stars. I likely won't be back…read more I arrived to grab a glass of wine and relax for a little bit. The bouncer stopped me and abruptly said, "cover's $12". I paused and said, "oh, didn't know that there was a cover" "yeah, band tonight". With no one behind me waiting to get in, the bouncer again abruptly said, "well...." and pointed his hand toward the street. Meaning, that if I wasn't willing to make a decision to pay the $12 cover at that moment, he was directing me to move to the road. Wow. What an asshole. The $12 isn't an issue for me, it just caught me off guard and I needed a moment to consider if it was worth it for me, considering that I'd likely spend maybe 30-45 mins there. I reached out to the owner, Karen, and never heard back. Maybe they're shifting toward the "scrappy dive bar" scene. That's just not for me.

I know this place is not the "traditional" after work work spot, but I must say, I got a lot accomplished on my computer this day. I ordered the Corn Fritters for an appetizer that were served with a Blueberry Sauce that was to die for! I then had the Watermelon and Wings! They were wonderful also. My experience was great and now I think I can add this to my list of work spots!

    I really liked the restaurant that was previously located in this spot. I decided to try Cooper's…read moreto see how they had adjusted to taking over this spot. Parking can be a hit or miss for CY area. We went on a Monday at 5:00p and it wasn't overly busy. prompt seating and friendly servers. starters: Southwest egg rolls and the chicken and sausage gumbo. Both were delicious and the gumbo is a nice sizes bowl for the price. main: catfish fillet. Fried crispy and seasoned well. The potatoes are a cut wavy shape with a nice crispy coating. Cocktails: Captain Cooper's Treasure a frozen paloma style martini was by fav my fav. The Cease and Desist was just the right amount of mezcal that has a little heat thanks to the jalapeno syrup. There was also a trivia call game that started right as we were heading out. Overall it's a nice, casual and welcoming space to grab food and chill. Prices are very reasonable and there is also outdoor patio seating. I'd definitely do that once the fall weather rolls in.

The business had a single 1 star review with no images so figured I would go in to refute said review. The space is large, and inviting with plenty of booths, TV's and a modern-rustic Vibe. I helped myself to the bar where the bartender was super friendly. To make it even better it was bustling with live music. The bar menu has a decent selection of cocktails and wonderful selection of beers on tap. Don't judge the business on that single review because the live music, alone, is worth the visit.
