Awesome beer bar

by gbarry at Citysearch

Great selection. Had a few pre-dinner beers here and the bartender (beer sommelier??) was great. Made suggestions that were spot-on. Cask-conditioned wheat beer was fresh and delicious. Food smelled and looked good.

  • Pros: Beer selection and staff
  • Cons: None
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Neighborhood Local.

by sharkbitenyc at Citysearch

Hmmh !. I had the pleasure of an evening here recently and although it wasn't my first time here it was by far the best. A knockout social event without a doubt., this bar caught my attention because of the great beer selection but last week I met and mingled with some regulars who are also neighbors of mine ! and I was amazed at the interaction between staff and customers here. That's what makes a good place great. Food is solid, drinks are resonably priced and I'd give this place an overall 10. Hopefully someday I'll bump into grumpy pants that wrote the last review !.

  • Pros: Neighborhood feel.
  • Cons: Small and crowded.

Service far below average.

by ga254 at Citysearch

Great selection of beers. Good bar food. Service sub par - even for an area that totally caters to the theatre crowd and tourist. I was there with a very attactive female friend and the service was almost non existent. I can understand them ignoring me (a middle aged male) but come on - a nice looking lady with any empty glass....hello!!!!

  • Pros: Great selection of beers
  • Cons: Poor service
