Editorial Review for Apache Cafe – by Citysearch Editors

The Scene
There's an underground allure at this sultry Midtown sanctum just a few blocks from hectic Crescent Avenue. The lights are dim, the furniture worn, the wall art slightly spiritual, and the vibe intellectually free. During the day, Bob Marley wails in the background, while college students and Bohemian-chic couples sip coffee or Corona at cafe-style tables. Jazz and hip-hop lovers file in after 10pm for Apache's nocturnal fun. The crowd spills into the cozy back nook, where cushy seating keeps things intimate.

The Draw
Apache scores big for dropping a new scene in trend-weary Midtown. Experimental jazz jams, spoken word performances, open mics and local hip-hop and funk acts light up the stage when the sun goes down. The Tex-Mex menu of fresh tacos, burritos and quesadillas pulls adventurous Midtown professionals and Tech kids for lunch and dinner.

I love this spot, but my car has been broken into 2 times within 3 months here. One night over 20 cars were robbed in the lot right behind the club. There are dudes walking around waiting for u to get out, knowing u wont be back for hours. Dont leave anything of value in or on your car, it will not be there when u get back and your car lock will be broken. Mine was... twice. There is no security, no parking - and No Valet.

Pros: Cool Spot, Good Music Drinks and Food

Cons: Your Car Will Get Broken Into - No Parking

Go early to get a seat and make sure you eat before you go. Wear jeans and hang out. Good local venue where you don't have to get dressed up. The place is small so be prepared to be up-close and personal with everyone in the room! The crowd changes as the music changes. I enjoy it for what it is, a place to go when you don't want to go home and want to hear music.

Pros: fun and funky

Cons: small
