Awesome beer bar

by gbarry

Great selection. Had a few pre-dinner beers here and the bartender (beer sommelier??) was great. Made suggestions that were spot-on. Cask-conditioned wheat beer was fresh and delicious. Food smelled and looked good.

• Pros: Beer selection and staff
• Cons: None

Neighborhood Local.

by sharkbitenyc

Hmmh !. I had the pleasure of an evening here recently and although it wasn't my first time here it was by far the best. A knockout social event without a doubt., this bar caught my attention because of the great beer selection but last week I met and mingled with some regulars who are also neighbors of mine ! and I was amazed at the interaction between staff and customers here. That's what makes a good place great. Food is solid, drinks are resonably priced and I'd give this place an overall 10. Hopefully someday I'll bump into grumpy pants that wrote the last review !.

• Pros: Neighborhood feel.
• Cons: Small and crowded.

Friendly place and great selection of beers

by WestKen

Dropped by this place on the way home from work and was really impressed. The waitress was very attentive and friendly, the snacks were good and the selection of beers hard to fault. The place has a nice relaxed atmosphere too. Glad to have found a nice local.

• Cons: Not the cheapest

Service far below average.

by ga254

Great selection of beers. Good bar food. Service sub par - even for an area that totally caters to the theatre crowd and tourist. I was there with a very attactive female friend and the service was almost non existent. I can understand them ignoring me (a middle aged male) but come on - a nice looking lady with any empty glass....hello!!!!

• Pros: Great selection of beers
• Cons: Poor service

Great place for staff and beer.

by rhonda1985

I just moved into an appartment on West 46th street and after unpacking some stuff, my boyfriend and I went excitedly on the hunt for a beer and a burger. We went to an Irish place on the block, not so friendly !!. Then tried the house of brews. Fantastic !. Great athmosphere, great bartenders, and really great beer and burgers. Going back on Tuesday for two for one stellas !.

• Pros: Two for one Stellas !.

Helpful bartenders, interesting new beers to try

by mccreater

I stopped here after work... I got lucky because their beers were a dollar off! The bartender was very patient and helpful when I couldn't decide what kind of beer I wanted. There were too many to pick from! After testing a few, I settled on the Kona Longboard and was delighted. Great place to go if you love to try new brews.

• Pros: Good selection of beer, samples were nice
• Cons: Happy hour could of been better than $1 off, only a few people there
