Weird and cool AF decor. Tasty pizzas. A place dedicated to live music, 7 days a week. Sometimes they have shows on the main stage and also a pocket show downstairs. Nice staff, bunch of options for drinks.

Great atmosphere! My brilliant sister was lead singer in 'Motown and Beyond' and lazybones was the perfect place for her to shine. Bar service was fast and drinks were delish, if a bit pricey and limited for choice. Plenty of seating available too. More
