The Scene – Frat boys on the prowl aren't the only thing you have to watch out for at this popular Columbia watering hole. With a busy dart board perched precariously near the entrance, just getting through the door requires speed and agility. Safely inside, however, be prepared to experience college bar life at its fullest--beer flows freely as throngs of students crowd around the pool table, listening to blaring alterna-rock and watching sports and sitcoms on the big screen TV, checking one another out all the while. – – The Draw – Since the room is packed every…

Nothing special, but a good place for a few beers.

Patrons here are usually students who are well behaved (probably intentionally avoiding some of the frattier bars in the area). They have a decent sized bar with a fair selection of drafts, and some booths to sit in. There's also darts and a big TV.

The last couple of times I've been there's almost always a clump of smokers twittering right in front of the door. I guess that's just the way it is these days.

Young place

by blondblond at Citysearch

It is nice to have a low-key place where drinks are really cheap. I like the booths but they are always full and I have rarely sat there. I'm not a fan of the young crowe that takes over the place, but I guess you get that with cheap drinks. Basically, a cool place with little atmosephere, but cheap beer and a dartboard are sometimes all I need.

fun for everyone and a great trivia night

by akumashogun at Citysearch

I host a trivia night pub quiz at 1020 every Tuesday night so I am at the 1020 a lot. It's a great bar, with booths so you can sit with your friends and large tables in the front and back of the joint if you are with a large group. The beer is dirt cheap for NYC.

On the weekends it is full of college kids making it crowded and impossible to play darts. There is a also a beaten up old pool table that takes quarters to play. The bartenders are chill and work hard to serve people quickly.

Here is info on the Trivia Night.
