A single room with a very long bar, this rock-'n'-roll temple has varnished hardwoods and fabric-covered walls that barely absorb the reverberations of nonstop recorded music. You won't find techno, punk, jazz, blues, or soul here. It appeals to hard-core, mostly heterosexual, rock wannabes ages 25 to 35. Alcoholic drinks cost 5€ to 15€ ($7.25-$22); on Tuesdays, women drink free. It's open Tuesday to Saturday 11pm to 5am.
