A hidden-in-plain-sight cocktail bar where the best nights start with a knowing nod. Tucked away on the first floor, Upstairs isn’t advertised—it’s discovered. It serves as a characterful setting for private gatherings, celebrations and corporate occasions, as well as select special events and creative partnerships open to the public.
Elevated yet relaxed in style, the room can return to its roots as a cocktail bar when the moment calls for it, with carefully crafted drinks, biodynamic wines and seasonal bites shaping the experience. It lends itself just as easily to birthday dinners and brand launches as it does to team get-togethers, soirées or collaborative events — the kind of place where a simple “Meet me Upstairs” is all the direction needed.
By day, Upstairs works equally well as a breakout space for conferences and meetings. Set apart from the main event areas, it offers a sense of privacy and ease for smaller sessions, workshops, networking moments or informal lounges — adaptable, atmospheric and quietly distinct.
Located on Level 1
