A warm, wood-paneled vinyl listening bar on leafy Nanchang Road where custom high-fidelity speakers play soul, jazz, and funk at a volume that flatters both the record and your conversation.

Root Down Vinyl Listening Bar
Warm horn speakers and vinyl shelves at Root Down on Nanchang Road. The bar as it stands.
