The Office is a relatively new addition to the downtown restaurant bar scene opening about a year and a half ago. It is located on the corner of Government and Washington Avenue.
The bar is a lively meeting
place for after work drinks.....
..a cool place to stop while shopping and a hot music venue late at night.
I know you want to know about the roosters...I will get to that......but first let's step inside. Cool and dark with a great handcrafted wooden bar.
Beer, wine and mixed drinks are provided by friendly bartenders...think modern day "Cheers"
A glance out the window and you can watch the local action as people come and go..
The Office features an "infused" vodka bloody mary that is pretty popular.
The steeped vodka is displayed in a giant glass container on the counter and contains a variety of garden veggies including tomatoes, peppers, onions and lemons and olives. Four days to get it ready and the bar goes through one batch every 2 weeks...
Now let's talk about the roosters.......
The roosters seemed to have just "appeared one day" and have been hanging around The Office ever since. My guess is they are always ready for happy hour.....and not sure if they draw customers in but seem to be drawing quite a crowd outside......
Not sure if they have names maybe The Office will have a contest to name the birds... Rumor has it that recently, late one night among the well served crowd, a local magician was able to put one of the roosters in a trancelike state on the bar....a feat that wowed the patrons present.....don't worry the rooster was not harmed!!!
No, it's not Key West, its just Ocean Springs, but if you are looking for a good drink and some cheap entertainment with good friends or strangers stop by The Office.........just look for the roosters...
