What is a good tip if going to this bar?

I would recommend going there early so you can have a place to sit, it is a small space and it tends to get full fast. They also have a happy hour between 16h and 19h everyday and all day on Sunday. And also every Sunday from 17h to 19h they have live jazz if the weather allows it.
