Still great but the Guinness' are no longer $3…they're back to $6 🙁
Ahhh beer, beer and beer!! This place is right next to Crif Dog, so if you are hungry, you can grab a dog or two (i think they also serve food here). They have a great selection of draft and bottle beer. We have been here a few times, and both times we had a good time, just chilling, people watching, listening to their jam, and have a good brew in the warm summer day. Since, we have only been here before prime time (usually in the afternoon/evening of Saturdays), I don't know what this place is like at it's prime time.
Great little bar with awesome beers on tap, 4 dollar drafts before 7pm on weekdays, and cool bartenders. Check it out!
We stopped in early in the day maybe 4ish, so it was pretty quiet. But the bartender "Greg"? was very chatty and another local at the bar made our drop in really cool. Nice place to give our feet a break from walking and wet our whistles. 😉
This seems to be brand new. Though, upon more discovery and observation this used to be named Burger Shop and still serves up a number of the same things under a different name. I've never been to Burger Shop though, so I can't judge the discrepancies. My inebriated friend and I stumbled upon this last night after two unnecessary pitchers of Sangria. I wasn't even in the mood for drinking and was initially going to go to the gym so I have no idea how this entire night transpired. Anyway, the list of beers is pretty decent. You get a free slider with any draft. Also, they have a 3 sliders for $5 special all night. Which we were gonna do and split an order of their delicious garlic parmesan fries. Were sitting at the bar all smilies, waiting for our mini burgers and my friend turns to me and says "I'm gonna be sick!" and runs out the door. She left me with her purse though and I sat there with 6 mini burgers and wonderful wedge cut frites. The burgers were really really good. Really really good. I didn't eat all of them, though, it was certainly tempting. The fries were pretty spot on as well. I would definitely come back again because other bars near st. marks have been slacking. Wonderful addition.
The Village Joker has some decent beers on tap (YAY Ommegang witte!!) and the food menu looks pretty bangin' as far a bar/gastropub fare goes. I came here the other night with my gal pal after getting really hammered at a wine bar nearby (still wondering till this day how that happened…I attribute it to the absence of real food in my stomach for 6+ hours before sangria-ing ensued) and ordered their 3 cheese sliders deal for (an outstanding!! $5!!! ONLY $5!!!) and an order of garlic parmesan fries to split with my friend.
About a few minutes after ordering I did something along the lines of declare myself as being sick and I immediately hopped into a cab leaving my friend with my purse and some delicious food. I mean ridiculously delicious looking food which she later said was delicious so clearly I was left hungover, hungry, sad and poor.
I am genuinely going to make it a point to come back here before June is over because this place looks awesome, sells awesome food, awesome beer and the bartender was a doll for making sure my credit card (since I unknowingly and apparently started a tab -__-) was returned to my friend. Cheers all around.
New York on Sunday, big city,takin' a nap…unless you wake up from the nap and head down to Augurs Well like I did last Sunday. And although I love my naps, I'm glad I spent a few hours downtown.
Allow me to break it down for you…
First, it's a cool space, that, although small, is well laid out. Second, the beer selection is pretty good. There were a lot of pints priced at $8 but that's not crazy out of line for good beer in Manhattan. Third, the handsome bartender was friendly and knew his beers. He also kept the 30+ guys I was with from my beer club in beers all afternoon. He didn't get much rest but he really hustled.
We will definitely go back to this place!
I really came to this place, despite it being open for a few years and always passing by. However, I've entered recently as they do have a decent taplist, especially with some amazing locals sometimes from Threes Brewing or Grimm Artisinal.
The prices aren't spectacular, but par for pricier craft beer bars.
