  This place is just a bar but is also a classic of the LES. Yes I would come back for a beer, absolutely.

  I like the bar, they play good music and the bartenders are down to earth—however, the bouncer on Thursday’s and Friday’s is a psycho. I have never seen someone with so little power, with such a hardon for low level authority. The man is a total dick, and it’s impeding sales from respectable paying customers. I live around the corner from this establishment, and I’m precisely their target audience, but I refuse to deal with this dude—you play punk, and hardcore?! The dude you have at the door is a jock, an ignorant fascist.

  Favorite Manhattan dive bar and a convenient place to pregame. Is extremely small, is decorated like your grandparents' basement from the 70's, has a jukebox, pool, a pac-man table, and cheap PBR.

  Seriously this bar sucks so hard and the bartender was such a giant pos that I felt the need to leave a second 1 star review. I'd give this place zero stars if I could. Go literally anywhere else. If you can't afford to spend more than $2 for a beer then maybe you shouldn't be going out. Everything about this place was a giant red flag and I wish I had listened because I had one of the worst nights ever at this place. Seriously, what kind of bartender has someone thrown out for pointing out that he overcharged them? The bartenders who work at this hellhole, that's who.

  Visited this bar for the first and last time. The music was good, the decor was...different. The beers are cheap. Cool. The bartender, some dude with a giant chip on his shoulder, was pretty inattentive, which became clear when he overcharged me for a beer I didn't order. When I pointed out his error rather than apologize he proceeded to go ballistic and threw money at me and told me the conversation was OVER. Keep in mind this was for a $4 beer. I told him he doesn't get to screw up and then be dismissive of me and he had me thrown out, but not before climbing onto the bar in full view of the other patrons and threatening to hit me. He's clearly got issues and shouldn't be working such a "high stress" job where he has to do things like count up to the number 5. In short, this bar sucks, the people who were there at first were okay and at the end sucked, the bartender is an idiot and a dick, and the bouncer is a loser. There are so many other dive bars that don't make you deal with all the BS. Go to one of those.
