Editorial Review for Flight 151 – by Raven Snook

The Scene
This laid-back, flying-themed restaurant/lounge constantly bustles with 20-somethings, while the cozy back dining room attracts groups of after-work revelers looking for cheap drinks and excellent eats. The airplane decor includes photos of vintage aircraft, a large suspended model plane, a WPA-looking mural and even authentic salvaged plane parts.

The Food
Most dishes are fresh and fabulous. This isn't just bar food: In addition to chicken fingers and french fries, enjoy succulent steak, creamy mashed potatoes, a variety of pasta dishes and cappuccino. There's plenty to entertain while you wait for a meal: Draw on the table with crayons, play video games up front, or read the "story" of Flight 151 which involves Nazis and spicy chili.

User Reviews for Flight 151

3 Star Rating: Average

This is our regular after-work spot with colleagues. We joke that it's our favorite mainly because it's the closest to our office, which is true, but it's got a certain charm in its own right. The staff is friendly, the atmosphere is cozy, the happy hour prices are good, and the food, particularly the wings, are better than average for what you'd expect from this kind of place. I like that they also have pierogies (Polish or Russian dumplings), which are exactly standard bar food, but they suit the purpose well.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I ususally come to Flight after work. It's never too crowded and always easy to get a place to sit whether you are with one or six friends. The happy hour specials are great: 3 dollars for a pint of beer and mixed drinks; even better, the food is actually of great quality. It's really awesome when you go into the bathroom and you hear a voice, simulating that you are passenger on an airplane. I definitely recommend anyone who either lives or works in the area to check it out.

Pros: Great Crowd-no one is obnoxious or loud; cool bar games going on which creates a lot of positive energy and the bar is definitely very clean
