"Public Records feels like a communal space you’d find in a utopian condo building. It has a huge skylight, there’s a great sound system, and the high ceilings are lined with shelves of records (which seems impractical, but looks cool). There’s also a venue in the back that hosts ticketed shows (DJs, mostly), as well as a full vegan menu in case you want to sit down for dinner. Try this place when you want to have some casual daytime drinks and listen to good music with a group, or stop by on a weekend night when you’re looking for a place where you can potentially dance until 4am." - bryan kim, carina finn koeppicus, willa moore
