Located in the basement of the award-winning big brother restaurant Bar Virgile, Annexe is all about tasty adult beverages and a femme + funk atmosphere. They offer a low-key lounge from 5-9:30 where you can enjoy craft cocktails and delicious bites until they crank it up a notch and light up the dance floor. If you bring a record with you on Wednesday evenings, they'll even play it for you on the turntable.

Cassie was our bartender tonight and she was so great! Personable, authentic, and truly cared equally about our experience and her employer. The charcuterie was totally yummy and paired beautifully with my Earl Grey martini. My love had the burger special and a great beer from Burial. Cool tiki vibe. Great date night getaway.

10/10 experience! My lady's words were "I want to go somewhere with great steak or ribs". Annexe had BOTH, paired with the availability of crafted cocktails for prices so reasonable you have to have a couple! Service was welcoming and accommodating of my desire to take in the venue's feng shui, snap a couple pictures, and curiosity of the bars history. Located in a cozy basement on a corner that hosts a few establishments under the same corporate umbrella, this spot is a must not skip! We had the Steak Frites dinner and the Short Rib dinner. Both were cooked to perfection, with taste lacking in nothing. We came for the food and drinks, but were informed that the place turns into a little party vibe at 10pm. We will return. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.

We found this upscale tiki bar sort of by accident but really loved it. I have been very underwhelmed recently from bar experiences where the prices are high and the drinks are average. However, the bartenders make really great cocktails and the prices are on point. The music is at the right volume for conversation and the bar has an excellent vibe. Highly recommend it!

This was a great underground bar. Difficult to find ... even people standing outside didn't know that there was a bar down a flight of stairs. Anyway the bar is great, the cocktails were on point and the music was amazing!
