The Venue distinguishes itself from other taprooms in the area as well, a music venue. They support the local live music scene with a recently expanded stage for their regular weekend entertainment. The Venue hosts a wide range of artists so everyone can enjoy the atmosphere on one evening or another.
The Venue honors the business that came before—Skip’s Party Place—by keeping the original brick walls and authentic wooden trim that patrons knew for over 40 years. And they keep things fresh with remodeled bathrooms and a recreation room upstairs, expanded menu offerings, and high-definition TVs to keep everyone up to date with the night’s sporting events.
