Our Rattle Room welcomes you when joining us 4 floors below Vine street. The Rattle Room does not require reservations and is seated on a first come first serve basis.

Ghost Baby exists to rattle the extraordinary. Our cocktail lounge and music venue claims a 170-year-old space that once served as a lagering tunnel for a brewing company. Come as you are and enjoy an inventive cocktail, a stiff drink, your favorite canned beer, or a glass of our hand-selected wine. Reserve your spot for an intimate, unique performance in the Den or join us in the Rattle Room (front bar) on a walk-in basis.

    We went for their Valentine’s ticketed event and while the ambiance, drinks and service were amazing as always, we weren’t huge fans of the show. The musicians were very talented, but we didn’t really love the song selection or understand the seemingly randomly placed tap/soft shoe intermission between songs. We’ve been before for jazz music, and that performance was amazing! We were hoping for more of that sort of vibe. Still a fun night but we were hoping for something a little more moody like we experienced before.

    Ghost Baby ✨ A Vibe You Won’t Forget Late-night magic with the Hubbs—Sotto for dinner, then a moody escape to Ghost Baby (11:45 reservations, because why not?). Jesse Lamb & The Factory set the tone, the cocktails (and THC-infused options!) hit just right, and the staff? Top-tier. The acoustics could use a tweak, but honestly, the ambiance whisks you away to another era. Already planning our next visit. Ghost Baby, let’s talk VIP? 😉
