This Week
A small room, a careful cocktail list, four nights a week. The right drink before a show, the table that holds the conversation after the curtain, or where the whole evening ended up. Walk-ins welcome. RSVP on Instagram for themed nights.

6p to 12a
Slower, softer, longer. A quieter room, the kind of Sunday night you want one more drink on.
The room
The vinyl wall, the bottles backlit, the laugh you can hear over the music. Saturday at Sessions is the night the room is most itself.
Welcome
Sessions on 15th is named for what happens here. A session is a gathering, a stretch of time set aside for something good. It’s the moment a track shifts the mood and someone you’ve never met turns to you with a story.
We believe music makes you feel good. We believe that when music plays while we’re together, it becomes part of the fabric that binds us, a shared frequency we can all sit inside for a few hours. Add a thoughtful cocktail. Add a room built with this in mind. That’s what we mean by Sessions.
Who it’s for
Different visitors, same room. Yours might be one of these.
Pre + post show
The Fox or the Paramount, five minutes either way. A drink to settle into before the lights drop, or the table that holds the conversation after.
Date night
A room low enough to talk, music that isn’t asking anything of you, a cocktail you can point at. The kind of place where the conversation goes easier than you planned.
Part of the night
Other bars are a few blocks in any direction. The dinner you came from is winding down. The walk home takes the long way. Sessions fits in there somewhere.
Just Sessions
The right song on, neon overhead, the regulars who came back. Some nights you didn’t come for anything else.
Private Events
A birthday, an anniversary, a long-overdue catch-up, a Friday that earned itself a gathering. The room holds up to 50, with the full bar, the sound system, and the same warm light that does the room’s heavy lifting on a Funk Friday.
