There's not much to talk about when it comes to the bar itself. It's your average sports bar with TVs and some seating and a relatively decent beer selection. The service from one particular server, however, left something to be desired. My friends and I came here during happy hour on 1/28. We sat at a table and then a few of us went to the bar to get drinks. A female server immediately yelled at us (literally yelled at us) and told us we had to order from her at the table. We apologized; we didn't know, and sat back down. She took our order, we received our drinks and then she proceeded to never come back the entire evening. No exaggeration, she never came back. This was shortly after the huge storm in NYC so the bar was pretty empty. There were maybe 5 other people in the bar, most of which were sitting at the bar and not tables. There was a bartender, our server and an additional server. When the additional server brought out or food about 15-20 mins later, we ordered more drinks. For the rest of the evening, we ordered drinks from him because the female server would not come to our table. It was bizarre. If you're going to be rude about us only ordering from you, then you have to actually proceed to take our order…..

It was a pretty happening place for a Saturday night. I found a seat at the bar to enjoy my Whiskey Passport. I had a Jameson on the rocks. Then I Texted 44622 and filled out a survey for a free bud-light. The place is loud with plenty of TVs playing mainly basketball and the Winter X Games. The female staff were all wearing Zip hoodie and daisy dukes. They were very friendly and efficient. They served my beer in a Plastic cup (probably for the Friday night crew). Overall it was a fun bar.
Came here for a film festival. Could swear I'd been here before but I don't remember. Know that the ladies room is VERY tiny but they do have a nice event space for a film festival. The space itself is intimate & cozy without being pretentious. No complaints here though I'm not a drinker and didn't deal with anyone except the guy at the front door who checked my ID and told me where the festival was.
I can't hate on this place. Newsflash: It's a sports bar. Though, the only reason why I came in here recently was because of the NY beer passport. Also, I've never tried their food here. Although, they have an array of specials every single day: $5 Margarita Mondays, $25 buckets of beer, Tuesdays – 25 cent wings & 2 for 1 on bud drafts (really? bleh), Wed – Trivia at 8pm with $10 bud pitchers, late night happy hour after 10pm, Thurs – Beer and shot combos for $10, Fri – happy hour extends till 10pm, Happy Hour on Saturdays (unheard of in this city) until 9pm, and Summer Sundays.
Basically, it's cheap every day of the year and the odds of it being happy hour when you walk in are very high. I remember back in the day this was a Kansas City bar (it probably still is but I like to talk like I'm 47) when I would occasionally watch college basketball and watch people go nuts. Speaking of which, this bar also attracts a lot of younglings and NYU brats and frat boys that are either cheering on their hometown teams or waiting for a show to start at Webster Hall. Beware. It was however delightfully devoid of these sorts when I stopped in on a weekday before 8pm. Their draft list is actually shockingly decent. It isn't all Bud, I swear. I'm a craft beer snob and I even managed to find a couple of ales that I never tried before last time I stepped in. Bartenders are super friendly. There was also a free shot special if you checked in on something and why not . . . . kamikazes are great. . . .
A pretty big sports bar. It's relaxed and I liked the music but the crowd became increasingly more annoying as the night went on. Beers are okay. I would come back to watch a game but probably not to eat or drink.
Just what you would expect for a sports bar — a decent selection of beer, extensive food menu, and plenty of TVs showing sports games.
I use to go to the UWS location before they closed. Thankfully, place is still around. I appreciated the large room filled with ton of seating, so you'll almost always get a table (unless a big game is on. Then its packed). Other than that, it's just your typical bar. Nothing too special besides the decent deals on food and drink.
I would say, this is an ideal place to grab happy hour or watch your sports team play.
This bar, formally known as the "Georgia bar" since it's a gathering place for U of GA alum, is huge. There are plenty of tables, bar stools, and standing rooms. The giant TVs and projectors play a variety of sporting games including, of course, GA games. The food is standard bar food and the service is great.
Down-side, single stall women's bathroom that was messy and had no toilet paper the one time I used it; not sure if this is typical.
Stopped by here with a friend while bar hopping in the area and it's a place I'll definitely come back to. It has a great selection of beers and other drinks, two different areas of tables to sit, and a bunch of tvs to watch sports. It definitely has a younger crowd too and is a fun place to go.
