Per hotel information, Level One offers lunch service on weekends and runs afternoon through late-evening hours for cocktails and dinner service. The setting is the hotel’s polished lobby lounge space rather than a formal dining room.
- Typical hours: Lunch Fri–Sun 12:00 PM–2:00 PM; Bar/dinner service into the evening (daily)

Starbucks and quick bites
An on-site Starbucks provides coffee, espresso drinks, pastries, and grab-and-go items for guests who need a quick start to the day or something portable before meetings. Hotel listings show Starbucks hours beginning early morning and operating into the mid-afternoon.
