Step back in time to Gatsby's West Egg mansion where thousands of books fill the library bookcases and early 19th and 20th century oil paintings adorn the walls. Dimly lit by candles and chandeliers, you will forget which century you are in as you indulge in bespoke cocktails created by our master bartenders, who share their expertise as your waiter as well. Gorgeous and generous charcuterie, smoked fish, and cheese boards second to none, and meant to be shared, as well as various other small plates can be ordered as you enjoy your Gatsby inspired cocktails, wine or draught beer. Truly a romantic setting, The Gatsby is the perfect date spot like no other. Here you will not find a single television, but you will find classic jazz, big band, crooners, and electro swing music. The entrance is on the second floor above the Bourgeois Pig, and to gain entrance you must solve a simple riddle, and provide the password when asked. Enter through a hidden bookcase door and prepare to be amazed.
