About The Jazz Cellar

Step through an old telephone box into an electric basement den running on pure New Orleans swing. The room stays loud and packed. Regulars unpack picnic spreads of cheese, crackers, and takeaway beers from the bottle-o up the street—or dial the local pizza spot straight to their table. On stage, the band hits their groove and stays locked in the pocket, driving the crowd onto the dance floor before the opening set even wraps.

  • Phone Box Entrance: Guests slip into the subterranean venue directly through a vintage telephone box at street level.
  • Strictly BYO & Delivery: Bring your own food and alcohol—or phone local spots that deliver hot pizza right to your shared table.
  • Live Trad Jazz: A seasoned resident band keeps the basement jumping with lively swing, Brazilian tunes, and traditional jazz.

  • Communal Table Atmosphere

    Communal seating arrangements foster an unpretentious social environment where groups mingle with fellow patrons.

    Be prepared to share tables so my tip is to be mindful of how much food/drinks you bring.

Before you head over

Essential advice on BYO setup, reservations, and communal seating for your night out.

  • Plan for Total BYO or Table Delivery

    Pack everything you intend to eat and drink—from alcohol to picnic spreads—as the venue does not sell food or beverages. Wine glasses and water are provided, and you can also order from local pizza shops that deliver straight to your table.

  • Book in Advance or Join the Waitlist

    Open only on Friday evenings and consistently filled to capacity, securing seats requires planning ahead online. If a date shows as booked out, join the online waiting list, as smaller parties frequently secure spots.

  • Pack Light for Shared Tables

    Seating is communal and intimate, with groups frequently sharing tables with other patrons. Bring moderate food spreads and compact drink setups to preserve table space for your neighbors.
