"What happens at Two stays at Two." In November 2008, Don Krause opened Two, which he envisioned as a "couples lounge" and "make-out bar." The romantic atmosphere was enhanced with retro decor, mood lighting, love songs, and "kissing booths" with privacy drapes. The menu featured high-end cocktails with suggestive names, champagne, and desserts. The cozy space only held 50 people, creating an exclusive and intimate feel. From the beginning, Two encouraged all couples to show some PDA. While intended as a secret date spot, Two became a local favorite. In 2024, Krause redesigned the space as Meow Bar.
