This is a solid little neighborhood (for me) spot.
I've stopped in one two occasions when I was looking for somewhere to stop with friends and it serves it's purpose without standing out as being amazing for any particular reason.
Last night (Friday) the music was extremely loud. Am j getting older? Yes. But unless you are at a club, that sound level feels unnecessary because you have to literally about to be heard right across the table.
Cool spot, worth a stop in but maybe not a long trek.
This place opened perfectly in the midst of summer and has been a very welcomed addition to the neighborhood. I've been here when they first opened for a lovely cup of coffee as well as for a summer meal and evening drinks. Each time has been absolutely splendid. I will say with their features of canned seafood, I applaud them for introducing me to such deliciousness. I thought good canned seafood was something you could only find abroad. I've found canned food goodness at Maiden Lane and I like it! Plus, the guys running the place are very cool and more than willing to answer any questions without sighing.
Sometimes it's your bladder that controls the evening. Sometimes you have to pop into spots on your bar crawl inbetween inebriated new locales… PAUSE, it's tinkle time!
I was lucky enough to have my good friend who's pea sized bladder allowed me to experience this hidden gem. Fitting with the namesake, my Maiden voyage was a great one! This was a liquid pop in so I have yet to try their seafood and raw bar options, although everything i peeped while there looked very enticing.
The space is small and intimate and the layout great. I loved the geometrically jutting and corner sided concrete style bar. It allowed for easily finding a walk up space to grab a drink. A happy accident on the evenings bar crawl.
The available cocktails offered looked great and featured a variation on one of my favorites… The Corpse Reviver 2. But when crawling you have to limit the $10-$14 cocktails, so….tonights choice was an absolute winner in my books! I love the Beer-n-Shot combos and all variations are welcome. There is nothing more perfect for a bar crawl then a frosty can and shot before you bounce on to the next spot. Our offering was a variation on my go to : Tecate + Tequila. This one added a follow shot of Yellow Sangrita! It was great.. the flavors mirrored the beer and liquor perfectly with a hint of heat and spice and I could easily pop those all night.
The other great selling point was the music. Loud enough to get lost in but soft enough to not have to yell. Once again the physical presence of a live DJ is what added to the perfect atmosphere. He was spinning one off 45's of old and new school Dub and Rocksteady. Perfect… it's hard to not feel happy with this musical genre i feel, and the DJ was pulling out all kinds of hard to hear tracks.
The staff was friendly and engaging and service was on point. Im glad my buddies bladder is so tiny or I may have never found this great spot. I look forward to coming back for the Corpse Reviver 2 and some buttery Crab Cakes.
Tally HO!
Went here with a group of friends last night for drinks and a snack. Ok so I don't drink alcohol but they had a substantial number of drinks on the menu, but what warranted the 5 star review was the crab dip. Buttery, cheesy and creamy and served with chips. Our group literally wiped the plate clean. Nice ambience too and hipster crowd.
this place is a GEM. Went in on a Saturday night and the server was really sweet. We ordered the lobster roll (a necessity) and the hot crab dip (mouth-watering) and then the squid salad (very tasty). They had a drink special with a shot of tequila that you chase with this spicy concoction…it was like a fancier, tastier version of a pickleback. It was DELICIOUS. Definitely recommend this place & I most certainly will be going back!
