Low key, relaxed atmosphere.. they'll let you be!

by drink_club1

A fine bar that reminds me of the Dr. Who phone booth-- or was it a police box? From the outside it looks like a small place, but you keep wandering through and finding more and more. The bar team is accommodating, though it's not clear if there is or isn't a waitress. The food is normal barfood, onion rings, pizza, etc. But the cheese fries, though not exactly a healthfood, were delicious. The place was not overly crowded, but popular enough. Very neighborhoody. --Drink ClubNYC is a roving group of NYC drinkers

• Pros: relaxed, good promotion events, nice atmosphere
• Cons: music slightly too loud

Great place all around!

This place is awesome to go to right after work. The staff is amazing and I have had them buy me two beers, not just one. The food is amazing, especially the tator tots. I have gone to parties here as well as just hang out with one or two buddies. I have never had a bad experience with the exception of them not being open yet for the evening.

• Pros: Food, Service

Super nice

by harveyjinglejuice

Everything's good at Bar 9. I like it a lot. Once, this guy stepped on my jacket and I told him to "beat it" and then he knocked over a little table with a candle on it and then I thought it was going to turn into a fight, but then this real nice & cute bartender -- her name was sarah -- came and talked nice to everyone and broke it up. Turns out the guy knew me from my old job (record company!) and we ended up buying shots and having even more fun. The candle got broken, though, but we picked the table back up.

The bouncer told me where the ATM was, but it was broken anyway. And when its time to go, go early -- its a long walk and it takes a long time to find the bathrooms. No coat check.

• Pros: hott girlies
• Cons: lotsa dudes
