OBJECTIVE/FUNCTION
Wasted Grain/Bubble Room Bettys are the whole package. They host the party, bring the party, and are the party. Bettys can bring the perfect martini after a long day, recommend the best mimosa on Sundays, and never forget that sometimes one should drink champagne and dance on tables. With a smile on her face and a bubbling personality to match, Bettys ensure all our guests have the best experience anywhere in our multi-level venue. If your highlighter is as on point as your hospitality, we would love to talk to you more about becoming a Betty.

Less than a year ago, Wasted Grain reopened with a gorgeous remodel and unveiled Old Town’s only champagne lounge and nightclub, Bubble Room. Still an expansive interior, but now with a sleek new look. The open-air 3,000 sq. ft garden is dog-friendly with ample comfortable seating, foliage wall, oversized games, and a very Instagram-worthy bubble wing mural for the ultimate photo op. Wasted Grain proudly still showcases local and national live bands every Friday and Saturday night along with hosting fun activities such as cocktails and canvas, trivia, lip sync battles, and more throughout the week.
