For those of you that remember the origianl design for the Ale and Compass Lounge, this "front" seating area used to be "the whole place"! There was a tiny bar on the far left-hand side. A redesign in 2017 changed all of that and doubled seating capacity in the process.
Here's look at the main seating area at the Ale and Compass Lounge.
This new, longer bar area was added to the Ale and Compass in the fall of 2017. This area used to be office and storage space.
The seating near the bar is mostly highboy style tables and chairs — but there is one booth way in the background!
Early in the afternoon, the Ale and Compass Lounge... isn't very busy.
