About

The James Room is a cocktail lounge on Auburn Avenue built around curated music — pop, hip-hop, R&B, reggaeton, and soul — paired with minimalist cocktails that pair thoughtfully-sourced spirits with a single key ingredient. By its own description, it’s “not a quiet and boring speakeasy” but a spirited, music-forward room that runs until 2am on weekends. A daytime café operates on the same site.

Why go

A dimly-lit, DJ-driven cocktail lounge that bills itself as the opposite of a quiet speakeasy.
