About Green Hour
Green-patterned wallpaper, a pressed-tin ceiling, framed vintage prints and silver absinthe fountains on the tables give the small room the air of a Parisian back bar, with green lighting taking over after dark. The signature order is a flight of three absinthes from a long list, each louched at the table with an iced-water drip so drinkers control the strength, and each paired with a filled chocolate from the glass case at the bar. Reviewers who arrive doubting the aniseed flavor often leave converted, and the manager is credited by name for matching bottles and chocolates to individual palates, even checking allergens. A separate cocktail list covers non-absinthe drinkers, including flaming serves, and a cheese board fills the food gap. Opening is limited to Thursday from 7pm to midnight and Friday and Saturday until 1am. Every recent review gives five stars, and the Google average sits at 4.7 from about 190 ratings.
