Editorial Review for Lucky Jack's – by Kara Zuaro
The Scene
An Irish bartender greets patrons like old pals as they enter from Orchard Street, and regulars settle into the numerous stools that line the incredibly long bar. It stretches about 50 feet across the slim space, leaving room for a ruby red pool table at the alternate Allen Street entrance. The molding that twists and ripples along the bar's freeform perimeter measures an even 60 feet and 6 inches, the distance from the pitcher's mound to home plate.
The Draw
Sporty indie rockers--the proud, the few--can get a dose of Elliott Smith, Grandaddy, or Bloc Party with their ball game. Everybody else shows up for the friendly vibe and expertly poured cocktails: mean Manhattans, seductive spiked fresh lemonade, or sultry dark 'n' stormys. Knowing the power of his poison, the barkeep serves 'em up with a playful warning: "Now don't go falling in love with me."

The bartenders here fly! Most other LES bars/clubs you're left waiting 10 minutes for a drink ad when someone finally serves you it's with attitude. These guys race up and down the bar and when you leave your tip you actually get a thank you and a smile! They have heavy-handed cocktails, a good pool table and the music was dope on thursday night.
Pros: hot bartenders, great drinks
Cons: not open at 8AM!

Worst.Service.EVER! Don't go here if you actually want to have a good time. The bartender downstairs was so disgustingly RUDE! He acted like a leprachaun who found gold. If Lucky Jack's wants to be a real New York type of spot, then they need to hire NEW bartenders. I've lived in New York my entire life and have never seen such arrogance and disrespect towards customers. TRUST ME when I say that this is NOT a place you want to go to.
