Longfellow's Other Room
Longfellow is the foreplay; Longfellow’s Other Room is where you call the Uber because the time to get in bed is NOW. While you and your date sit in the tucked away island that is Longfellow’s Other Room, you can’t help but let your feet brush, your hair flip and your drink linger on your lips to torture your partner. Maybe it’s the candle light, maybe it’s the paperback novel innuendo in the bar’s name, but it’s probably just the mezcal.
