⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had my bridal shower at The Common Room yesterday, and everything was absolutely perfect! The space was beautiful and easily accommodated our group of 60 guests. The food was delicious, the drinks were fantastic, and the service couldn’t have been better. The owner was incredibly attentive, checking in throughout the day to make sure every detail was just right, which made the whole experience feel so special. Every one of my guests commented on how wonderful the venue, food, and staff were. If you’re looking for a spot to host a celebration or special event, I can’t recommend The Common Room enough. They truly made my bridal shower unforgettable! 💕

Big fan of this place! Really great vibes and an energy you can feel when you come in. Nice and bright too! The highlight was the potato skins. Let me tell you, I don't like potato skins. These aren't those dry flat chewy ones you get at a chain restaurant. These are like mashed potatoes inside of a potato skin. I don't know how to describe it but it was amazing. Looking forward to coming back to try more of the food!

Tonight I visited the common room to listen to the band Ghosts in the Machine! We had a lovely time because we ended up with the nicest server; Nate!! Nate wasn’t our original server but he took and even though he didn’t start off with us he came in and didn’t miss a beat. He was so personable and VERY patent (while I tried to explain how we wanted to split the bill amongst us) Had lovely conversation with us and was just an over all JOY!!! Keep up the good work Common Room!!

Went to a dinner show at The Common Room last night and WOW. The staff was incredible — somehow managing food and drinks during the show while staying completely silent. So smooth and professional! We met the owner, who was so kind and made us feel like VIPs even though it was our first time there. The aura of the room was warm and welcoming, and every staff member was friendly. Such a great night ❤️ can’t wait to go back!
