Back!..For The First Time.

                                             Ortlieb's Jazz Lounge ~ 847 North 3rd Street

                  Season's Greeting's Fellow Quester's... This edition is a very special one, as I introduce and bring to you back for the first time... The lendary "Ortlieb's Jazzhause" now heraled as Ortieb's Jazz Lounge. In April of 2010 this classic venue was previously confirmed closed due to poor economy. After serving after more than 23 years of music and food pleasure for its patrons, the Northern Liberties based venue is back!, bigger and deffer. Under a slight different management approach... Ortliebs now provides a more broad base of live music including Indie Hip-Hop, Rock, Soul, Funk, and of course Jazz..

              On any week-day you can enjoy a great happy hour which is from 6-8. Fully equipted with inexpensive drinks, great tex-mex inexpensive bar food, friendly/helpful bartenders, and an awesome Blues House Band. Anyone leaving this place will be sure be dying to come back. With a slight influential edge to the music and drink the new and improved Ortlieb's does include a nice mesh of American and Tex Mex food menu items.

A great insider tip: Try their house hot sauce..contains a cinnamon blend very different.

For those eager for the experience events are alive and well all this week and every week.!

Tuesday- Jazz Jam    Wed- Funk and Soul open mic Jam     Friday- Legendary MC Schoolly D

Great re-addition to the neighborhood!
