Black Cat
Black Cat Review
Come here to see the latest local bands as well as indie stars such as Neko Case, Modest Mouse, Arcade Fire, and Regina Spektor. Dave Grohl, lead singer of the Foo Fighters, owns a stake in the club. The post-punk crowd whiles away the time in the Red Room, a side bar with pool tables, an eclectic jukebox, and no cover charge. The club also is home to Food for Thought, a legendary vegetarian café.
