Classics & Cocktails is back for a summer series! Join us on Friday, June 2nd at 7pm for the 1975 thriller, JAWS. Admission is $8. Drink prices vary.

When a young woman is killed by a shark while skinny-dipping near the New England tourist town of Amity Island, police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) wants to close the beaches, but mayor Larry Vaughn (Murray Hamilton) overrules him, fearing that the loss of tourist revenue will cripple the town. Ichthyologist Matt Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) and grizzled ship captain Quint (Robert Shaw) offer to help Brody capture the killer beast, and the trio engage in an epic battle of man vs. nature.

Along with the specialty cocktail, we will have a full menu of wine, local beer and local ciders.

Our featured cocktail this week will be inspired by the swirling brandy snifters served up by Princess Grace in this Hitchcock classic. More details soon!

Alfred Hitchcock’s 1954 mystery/thriller is next in our Classics & Cocktails lineup on Friday, June 16th at 7pm! Admission is $8. Drink prices vary.

Rear Window is one of the best summer thrillers of all time. Not only is it set over the course of a sweltering week in Greenwich Village, but the steamy, claustrophobic setting is intensified by Jimmy Stewart’s role as the wheelchair bound photographer, in this one-set wonder. Even with the cool beauty of Grace Kelly, we become trapped in Jeff’s voyeuristic view, and the murder outside his window.

Along with the specialty cocktail, we will have a full menu of wine, local beer and local ciders.
