Lawrence is having a moment.

With visitors from around the world in town and the Algeria National Team calling Lawrence home during the World Cup, the city feels a little more alive this weekend. ⚽️

Our features are keeping pace with the excitement—from handmade pasta and smoked salmon crostini to a lavender espresso martini that might just become your new favorite. 🙌🏼

Grab a table, stay awhile and soak up the atmosphere.

What a night. 🤩

The Round Corner Experience officially opened its doors, and you all showed up in the best way possible.

From live jazz and handcrafted cocktails to incredible small bites, laughter, conversations and a packed room full of familiar faces, the evening was everything we hoped it would be and more.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, supported us and helped make our Grand Opening such a success. Special thanks to Nic Weaver & Friends for setting the perfect soundtrack for the night. 🎷

This beautiful upstairs space was created to bring people together, and seeing it filled with energy, connection and celebration made all the hard work worth it.

A little something special if you’re joining us today or tomorrow…

We’re serving up Nduja Crostini to start, a Duroc Pork Chop that’s every bit as good as it sounds, a few wines we’re especially excited about and of course some fun cocktails from the bar. Happy Hour is 11-6pm today!

Thanks to everyone who checked out The Round Corner upstairs! What a fun night!
