Editorial Review for 2 by 4 – by Riva Froymovich

In Short
Amid street signs, bottle caps and hanging bras, girls dance atop a 20-foot bar in a dimly lit space strewn with tables and stools. The dive bar is similar in style to Coyote Ugly and Hogs & Heifers, but without the crowds. Diversions include a country and classic rock jukebox and well-loved pool table. The mostly male regulars kick back with all-American draft and bottled beer.

So we went here to try out a new place, and decided to go during happy hour though on the later end around 7pm. The deals at the time were good but the place was filthy. I know its a dive bar and love dive bars but man this place would not pass the most lax health code standards. But who cares right i mean alcohol is supposed to eliminate germs at least the ones on the glasses. The part that left a bad taste in my mouth was the smoking and the when happy hour ended how expensive the drinks were for such a dive. Many many better places out there, that also let you smoke but have decent filtration systems in place

Pros: location

Cons: the rest,

Well I am new to the east village but I have found my home bar. It is a great mix of music, dancing, drink specials and people. I have only been there on Friday and Saturday nights and there has always been a great crowd. The bartenders are very friendly and make you feel right at home. There is a bartender named Heather that all I can say is WOW. She is definitly worth going to see. Trust me on this one people.

Pros: Great drink specails and service

Cons: The urinals aren't the greatest.. But which are
