Uh oh! Just when you think you find the perfect place, some idiot has to come along and ruin it. Our last visit was great. A fine mix of people showed up at the table, introduced themselves, and joined in the party. At first I made the mistake of buying a $4 Yuengling... with a tip that's $5, just like anywhere else. Then I noticed the $7 pitcher sign, and from there, things went well... We did indeed have a parade of people... all kinds, all ages, sitting with us, spreading the gossip, shaking hands, sharing the beer. Then Topher goes to the mens room. When he returns, he's being followed by a large goon. "I'm being thrown out," he yells to us on the way out. "This guy says I was smoking w++d in the bathroom." No trial. No proof. No evidence. (Topher doesn't smoke... not p*t, not anything.) Just a whiff of something that could have been there for ages. POW! A macho bouncer jumps in the act and spoils the night for the lot of us. So BE WARNED! You risk being thrown out of the place simply by being unlucky. Maybe it's better not to go in the first place. --Drink Club is a roving group of NYC Drinkers
Pros: cheap beer/booze deals, friendly crowd
