Description

If Frank Sinatra and Picasso had decided to create a spot for a good martini and evening repast, they would have come up with Goatfeathers. While the lighting is dark, the red votive candles and makeshift lighting created out of empty wine bottles strung with red Christmas lights, make for a romantic ambiance. Art reminiscent of the surrealists hangs on the wall: red lips, random doll heads, and Picasso-esque local art hangs on the walls, yet it does not seem too much. It doesn't make one morose nor does it seem Gothic. Miles Davis was on when we were there. Ashtrays abound although no one smoked. (There was even an ashtray in the Ladies' restroom). We ordered Oysters Rockfeller pizza which was a good choice. It was mild and delicious. I had a Manhattan made with Booker's which was also delicious. My husband drank Bass on tap. Yet, don't be taken by my artsy description. It still had the feel of your favorite dive: CNN on the bar TV, tattooed waitresses, and a friendly chef and bartender. Not pretentious at all and if I lived here, I would make it a "spot."
An extensive wine list and interesting menu...lots more than pizza...full meals with salads available, and you can eat at the bar. I love that! Go if you are ever in Columbia and want to cozy down.
