mongst all the 'Look-at-Me' (and really they are) style spots on King West stands 2 Cats, a refreshingly laid-back gem that’s dark and brazen, sarcastic and soulful.

A quirky, intriguing and swank Manhattan-style cigar lounge, 2 Cats features oak flooring and low couches setting the stage for a late night crowd of locals and Euros who have all come out for an evening at one of the better grade meat markets in town. Soon, you too will find yourself in-sway with an attractive and high-spirited crowd eating up the eclectic beats.

An easy-to-miss entranceway gives hints of a rich brown interior. An ultra-cool, wood-grained space with curious spot lighting sets the tone for a Dean Martin-would-be-proud night on the town, complete with dry martinis and soul-satisfying beats pumping throughout the night. Oh, the music, the music.

The 2 Cats vibe invokes a swanky notion of Rat Pack types, lounging about with jet fuel cocktails, a zest for life and no need for sleep. The place seems to attract just this type of crowd. Another haven for fun-luvin people.
