‘Motel no tell’ is a single bar divided into a few different sections, and each section has a similar connection with the theme. It has a 1970s feel with diner style booths, velvet gold-trimmed furniture and Art Deco light fixtures. Whether your birth date was in 1960’s or 2000’s you’re gonna feel welcome.

‘Motel no tell’ is built, blurring art, music, fashion, film and design into one space.

2023 was a total rollercoaster year. However, we learnt a lot from spending time in Woodstock, NY and Palm Springs, Florida. We took the time to design the space while making some noise doing so. Passion is what drives us and we try to express that feeling in the space we created.

The doors were swung in September 2023 with a bang and we have been received greatly as an addition to the neighborhood we so proudly call home. We aim to continually surprise you with groundbreaking cocktails, Neapolitan pizza accompanied by an exceptional experience.

Among them all is ‘Motel no tell’, inspired in classic Art Deco, think of it as ‘pulp fiction’ meets ‘lost Vegas’ situation.

With an aesthetic inspired by Palm Springs & Woodstock of the '60s and '7Os, this bar will pay homage to the Era some of us did not get to witness.

Come hang out, grab a tasty cocktail, sample our Neapolitan style pizza out of our imported Italian oven, sit on the original velvet fabric from the famous ‘Gramercy Park Hotel’ while you meet up with some friends and hang out!

Bring a group, claim a couch or two, or hang out near the bar and make new friends while watching a live band.

If you want to hang out in the equivalent of a “roadside motel” with a fully stocked bar, Neapolitan pizza and a disco ball start making plans now.

We hope you will enjoy witnessing, feeling and dancing with us!
