About Us

For over 20 years, we have dreamed of creating a space just like this. A place where people can gather, experience, share, learn, relax, and most of all have FUN! Whether having fun means dancing the night away or relaxing in the afternoon with a good book and cup of coffee or enjoying a shared meal with friends and family.

​

We have lived and traveled all over the world, collecting recipes and photos and ideas. And now we bring these experiences to Bartlesville, our adopted home town, to share them with you. In 2020, we transformed a 1920’s automotive shop into an environment where we hope everyone can find their own space and feel comfortable. 

​

Trying to describe Crossing 2nd in the usual terms is not easy! It’s not a restaurant, it’s not a bar, it’s not a nightclub, it’s not an event space.  It’s all of the above… and more. We finally came up with a word to describe Crossing 2nd - it’s a nexus!  

​

And what, you may ask, is a nexus. The dictionary defines nexus as an intersection of two or more things. And that’s just what Crossing 2nd is. An intersection of people, of ideas, of interests, of generations, of cultures - all coming together in one place.

​

We invite you to share this space with us and make it your own.
