So excited to start sharing a few more sneak peeks of the interior soon! 🖤
Time is absolutely flying, and every week brings us one step closer to opening our doors.
Until then, we thought we’d share a little more of the vision we’re building.. a space for curious minds, strange stories, unforgettable events, and a community that feels like home.
There’s so much more to come over the next few weeks, including the story behind Long Dark House, behind-the-scenes progress, and, very soon… all the details about our opening celebrations.
We can’t wait to share this journey with you. ✨
