About Harringtons Cocktail Lounge

A 4.3 across more than a thousand Google reviews is a hard number to hold for a room that runs to 4am three nights a week, and it tells you Harrington Street's crowd keeps coming back. Doors open at 4pm from Wednesday, though Wednesday winds up at midnight and the real weight falls Thursday to Saturday, when the lounge and chill house of the early evening gives way to trance and commercial hits and the floor fills. The kitchen works a Mediterranean and seafood line, and booths can be booked with table or bottle service if you want a base for the night. Smart casual is enforced, the spend sits in the upper-middle bracket, and the room skews 25 to 45 — couples, locals from around the East City, and visitors who have found their way down from town.
