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.

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

I live in the area and end up here a lot, especially during the week or low key weekends. Really reasonably priced beer, free popcorn on the bar, good jukebox, and the photo hunt game machine make it a great place. Bartenders are always nice and chill, and it's never too packed, but always at least a few people there. The food is basically bar food (mostly fried), but it's good.

I love this place. I went to this place for the first over 10 years ago, I can't say I am a regular but I do stop by every time I am in the neighborhood and always love it. This is the last of the REAL New York Bar & Grills. Very friendly (no attitude) staff; Cheap prices and very good food. You would not expect a bar to have such GOOD FOOD or a place with such good food to have such A COOL BAR.

Pros: atmosphere, staff, food

after the halloween parade, a group of us stumbled into flight for some after-parade revelry. the bar staff were amazing and provided refreshing bursts of comedy and quality service. did not expect a burger joint to be this cool and swank. i'll be back...

I went to this bar totally by accident on a late tuesday night around 10pm with a couple of friends. We went in because their sign said that they were having flip night (bartender flips a coin, if you guess right, you get a free drink). There weren't too many people at the bar, but there were enough of us to have a good time at this place. We won some free drinks, used crayons on our table, and played their video games. We didn't order any food. Go with a lot of friends, and make your own fun at this theme night relaxed attitude bar. To me, it seems to be a better place for drinking and hanging out than for dining.

Pros: drink prices, relaxed

I love this place! Great food for low prices and really fun deals (i.e. Tuesday's flip night, where you have a 50-50 chance of getting your beer for free!) Good brunch too!

Pros: cheap, good food, good beer selection

Cons: crowds
