"This stylish midcentury lounge feels more like the kind of place where a late-series Don Draper would entertain clients than the cinderblock locksmith that used to occupy the space. Turkish rugs, neatly organized vinyl, and the amber glow of well-deployed Edison bulbs create a space that’s both sophisticated and living room-y. “You can really just tell walking into a place that the vibes are going to be good,” says Binks bartender Megan. “[Keys] is a good place for a date,” she notes, “I played cards there with my boyfriend by the fireplace.
