Editorial Review for Standings – by Katie Heffernan
The Scene
Standings are just what you'll get at this classic neighborhood pub--from the bar's blackboards slated with up-to-date stats and the friendly, vocal fan base that hangs out. Team pennants plaster the brick walls and dark wood carved bar; rows of dusty antique beer cans run along the ceiling like crown molding; an old model train track circuits the room. Gruff young bartenders warm up once the game starts.
The Draw
Seven flat screens tune in to local and national matchups. Weeknights draw a small neighborhood crowd, while raffles and free snacks (ordered in from nearby restaurants) bring in bigger numbers during weekend games--with a sports debate bound to strike up between strangers at any given time. Beer's what's on tap--which rotates, but always boasts local ales like Sixpoint Craft and smaller national breweries--plus a selection of 25 bottled beers. Down the Midas Touch--a beer that is thick like liquor and so strong it's served in a wine glass--and you're golden.

Bummah!!! So Standings, yeah? Best spaahhhts bahhh evahh (in New York). But here it is, Game 2 of the ALCS, and we’ve invited people from Way Far Away to come with us to the BEST RED SOX BAR IN NEW YORK CITY, and guess what? Sox on two tiny TVs, and NO SOUND! Why? Cuz there’s CAL fans there. Actual other regular(ish)e\s, as they were walking out of the bar, said to us, “Dude—this is most definitely not the place to see the Sox game tonight.” Sad, so sad. And the owner? He said, “Too bad the Sox are crossing seasons this year. It’s tough.” Guess I should go to Professor Tom’s now that Standings has sold out. Particularly if anything in the World Series falls on a CAL game Saturday.
Pros: Red Sox, Sports Bar
Cons: NoRedSox

Hands down the best place in the neighborhood to watch a game & socialize complete with STANDINGS board, fantasy leagues and some nice beers on tap...Bring in a burger from Paul's (around the corner) and settle in for the night...can't wait for pigskin season...
Pros: Bring in your own food
