Doris

Doris is the kind of bar that nails the sweet spot between effortlessly cool and genuinely welcoming. It's trendy without trying too hard—a place where the drinks are solid, the crowd's stylish, and the decor feels like it was curated by that friend who's backpacked everywhere and always has the best playlists. On certain nights, a DJ spins old-school R&B and house, adding to the laid-back but vibey atmosphere. During the week, it's mellow enough to post up with a book while you wait for your date, soaking in the soundtrack and scene. And when the weather's right, the backyard is a total win.
